We found fire on the 50th floor of the building. The apartment was entirely on fire. Members pushed in heroically, they were knocking down the fire and found one occupant of the apartment who is in critical condition –#FDNY Commissioner Nigro gives update on 721 5th Ave 4th alarm

President Trump was in Washington when the fire erupted. That didn’t stop the leftists from celebrating the fire that took a life and injured firefighters. Most of them were incensed that Donald Trump said his building was “well built” because the residential floors do not have sprinklers. But the fire commissioner, Daniel Nigro, stated that the building “sure stood up quite well.” This was the 2nd fire at Trump Tower so far in 2018.
Fire at Trump Tower is out. Very confined (well built building). Firemen (and women) did a great job. THANK YOU!

There are oodles of negative left-wingers responding to that tweet, but here are other lovely wishes, as previously reported by CFL:

Trump Tower is on fire. It’s because Donald Trump was inside of the tower, and he poured gasoline on his head, then struck a match and set his entire body aflame. He died a long, painful death that will stain the history books for all time. He also had diarrhea at the last second

This cartoon says it all:
Unhinged Left insanity – celebrating a Fire in Trump Tower where one died and firefighters were injured. Sick, hate riddled people that have no moral authority to lecture anyone about “hate”! #MentalHealthMatters #throwback #BenGarrison #cartoon https://t.co/FzLrOb9Gpp pic.twitter.com/chc2q3PoCL
