president trump in kenosha,
wisconsin and i think we can put
a couple of them up on the
screen for our viewers because
he went to try to highlight and
under score and you see him
standing outside some of the
destroyed buildings and how that
compares to george w bush in the
wake of 9/11 where going to a
place in the country where there
was destruction, devastation and
obviously, the scale of these
two things are not comparable
but the way in which president
bush unified the country after
that difficult moment compared
to the way president trump is
clearly trying to use these
images to distract from what you
point out.
he has a tragedy of similar
skill and trying to use the
pictures to turn it around to
focus on something else.
do you think americans are going
to buy that and what do you --
you, i know, worked closely with
former president bush.
what are your reflections on
seeing those pictures?
