Donald Trump has sparked global revulsion after being photographed grinning with a two-month-old child who was made an orphan during Saturday’s mass shooting in
El Paso which left 22 people dead. The infant’s adopted parents, Andre and Jordan Anchondo, were both killed in the supermarket massacre, while he himself suffered broken bones when Ms Anchondo fell on the child to shield him from further bullets. But when the baby, called Paul, was brought to the
US president at the University Medical Center of El Paso, the 73-year-old appeared untouched by the child’s tragic plight. Both he and first lady
Melaniasmiled for cameras, while the commander-in-chief also threw in a thumbs up.
Little Paul, himself, it was later revealed, had been brought back to the hospital - reportedly at the
request of White House staff - having been discharged days earlier.
