President Trump and Melania visited many of the victims of the horrific Las Vegas Massacre…and one man’s reaction was truly remarkable.
President Trump’s visit to a Las Vegas hospital got one of the mass shooting victims to stand at attention … even on his injured leg.
Thomas Gunderson is one of the victims the President and First Lady met Wednesday in Vegas. Gunderson says he was running toward Mandalay Bay Sunday night when one of the shooter’s rounds pierced his leg.
“I will never lie down when the President of this great country comes to shake my hand! There may be plenty of issues in this country but I will always respect my country, my president and my flag. Shot in the leg or not, I will stand to show my President the respect he deserves!”
Wow.
Hats off to this American Patriot.
Despite his horrific injury Gunderson pulled himself up onto his feet when the Trumps entered his hospital room. As he put it … “I will always respect my country, my president and my flag.”
And there’s this poignant image — Air Force One taking off from Vegas, right behind the still bullet-riddled Mandalay Bay suite where the shooter opened fire.
I still can’t wrap my head around this senseless tragedy…
