Trump calls off congressional picnic, saying it didn’t feel ‘right’

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.politico.com/amp/story/2018/06/20/trump-cancel-congressional-picnic-655696


Trump also postponed Thursday's congressional picnic at the White House, an event that is always keenly awaited by lawmakers and their families, saying it didn't feel right.

The President's decision came a day after he met Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill who fear that their own political prospects with the midterm elections are being damaged by the separation policy.

And since when did Trump take other people's feelings into consideration?
