WATCH: Trump's motorcade forced to turn around after thousands of protesters flood Pittsburgh street

On Tuesday, despite people’s wishes, President Donald Trump traveled to Pittsburgh to pay his respects to the lives lost in the Synagogue massacre.

During CNN’s Jake Tapper Tuesday show, national correspondent Miguel Marquez said that he was shocked at how ‘how big’ and ‘how quickly’ the protest against Trump’s visit grew.

President Of The United States not welcomed in US city! Wow!

People with no honor and documented track records of lying and stirring up hate are unwelcome. Let the people who suffered mourn in peace before fluffing out another crapload of republican lies.

Is how the Pittsburgh born spouse described him this morning. Jagoff was not up to the task and required the effin prefix.

Well done! How dare he ignore your wish for peace and space to mourn after such a tragic incident. He was going to make this all about him and turn it into a media circus and you showed him!

At best, he went there to show his face to his base via Faux Gnus. At worst, he didn’t want to be (justly) criticized for be a self-centered prick. JarJar and Iskanka had to be there to keep him from committing any major fuck ups.
