Bill Weld, a former Massachusetts governor and now a Republican presidential candidate, called President Trump “pathetic” for bragging about crowd sizes while visiting victims and medical staff at a hospital in El Paso, Texas, after a mass shooting left 22 dead and dozens injured. “He went out, as he should have, to the sites of the shootings and he said, ‘Boy, you should have seen the respect that was paid to the office of the president of the United States. If he doesn’t hear it from the people sitting in the table around him, he’ll praise himself,” Weld said in an interview with Yahoo News at the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) annual convention in Hollywood, Fla.
