        Starting tomorrow every Press Briefing should begin with a reporter asking Sarah Huckabee, "Is today the day we can talk about guns?"

        Enough with meaningless thoughts and prayers. Stop the drivel. Show real compassion. Take action. If you can't, then just shut up.

        Sudden 'call to action' when white people die. Chicago marks 500th homicide of the year as of Sept.17. Where's the 'call to action'?

        Thoughts and prayers are just another way of doing nothing. Some of can truly do almost nothing. Not politicians.

        All @realDonaldTrump has to offer is prayer because he has no capacity for thoughts.

        Grand, sweeping overgeneralizations. Or are you still convinced that your tweets are making a difference to people who aren't reading them?

        Thoughts and prayers: It's the way to feel good about doing nothing. And to get small-minded people to feel good that you did nothing.
