But Im sure they didnt here this

Former President Donald Trump was caught on tape making jokes while speaking about the death of a supporter, riffing that at least four couples at a fundraiser would be thrilled to get a million dollars after their spouses were killed.
At a private fundraiser in Aspen, Colorado on August 10, Trump talked about the July 13 assassination attempt that left Trump bloodied and Trump supporter and former firefighter Corey Comperatore dead as he shielded his family.
According to leaked audio obtained by The Guardian, Trump told attendees about widow Helen Comperatores reaction to receiving a million-dollar check then went on a shocking riff:
Trump told how members of his Florida golf club, Mar-a-Lago, asked to make a contribution to Comperatores family. I said absolutely and they gave me a cheque for a million dollars. Thats a lot of money. Maybe even more impressively we put out a GoFundMe and we raised more than $6m for the group that got hurt, which is essentially three people.
Then, recalling a meeting with Comperatores widow, Helen, he made a risky attempt to find humour in the tragedy. So theyre going to get millions of dollars but the woman, the wife, this beautiful woman, I handed her the cheque we handed her the cheque and she said, This is so nice, and I appreciate it, but Id much rather have my husband. Now, I know some of the women in this room wouldnt say the same.
