Vegas shooting victim finds strength to stand when Trump enters hospital room
Fox News ^ | October 4, 2017 | Benjamin Brown

Despite being shot in a leg during Sunday night’s rampage in Las Vegas, Thomas Gunderson found the strength to stand Wednesday when President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump visited his hospital room.

“Hi, Thomas. How are you? No, don’t get up. Don’t get up,” Melania Trump can be heard saying in a video as Gunderson attempts to get out of bed.

The president entered the room shortly afterward and shook Gunderson’s hand.

“Hey, this guy looks tough to me,” the president said.

Gunderson credited two off-duty female police officers with saving his life.

He later wrote in a Facebook post: “I will never lie down when the President of this great country comes to shake my hand!”(continued)

It’s remarkable.

In spite of the stab-you-in-the-back never-Trumpers, hate-filled RATS, infantile leftist media whenever you see the President out in public it’s OBVIOUS the people love him. We’ve won. They know it, and there’s nothing all their 24/7 propaganda can do about it, and that just makes them even MORE demented.

Seriously. Can you imagine any of the other Republican candidates getting this kind of feedback from the people? Carly? Ted? ... Jeb!?! Not a chance.

Inspiring story. This really should be the headline on every channel. The media would rather talk about fake news.

Let’s see if anyone in the National Felons League assumes the BJ position up after this.

So true! The FBI needs major purging...maybe even abolishment. We can come up with a new Fed Cop agency, full of loyal Americans. Get rid of all the Clinton/Obama double agents.

I like that fellow quite a lot.

Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. CNN is bound to run a story about how this man believes America is great, so he’s a fascist, and how Trump kicked him out of bed.

In the country I grew up in that video would headline the nightly news on every channel.

EXACTLY, 2ndDivisionVet! How sad that this country has fallen so far...

“Yes, the Senate drains men of their will, they become compromisers.”

That is as it was planned to work under the Constitution.
