The behavior of these people is absolutely disgusting to any sane person, especially those who have lost love ones to similar circumstances. We aren't privy to the details so they shouldn't be making baseless claims about "how little Trump cared" about his dying brother, it could have been a sudden yet rapid decline that the hospital was only able to get in touch with him about until after his brother was already dead. Given how long he's been in the hospital and the condition he was in, Trump was probably preparing himself for the worst, but that doesn't stop him from continuing on with his life.
If his brother's condition had degrade to the point where they were consulting the family about pulling the plug and they had scheduled a time for this, it would have been a little strange for him to not show up, but also entirely understandable if he didn't. Not everyone can handle or wants to be in the room to see the moment someone that you cared about passes away. I remember when my first dog had to be put down I didn't go to the vet to see them do it like my parents did because I knew it would have been too much for me.
Everyone handles death differently and for people to make such terrible judgements on someones character because they didn't "handle it right" is far too common. Some people bawl their eyes out while others don't, some people are very public about their pain while others are very private, everyone is within their rights to handle grief in their own way. There is no "proper" way to show or handle grief (outside maybe physically lashing out at other people). Trump going golfing might have been his way of calming down and just escaping for a bit knowing that he might not ever see his brother alive again.
I know people dislike the use of reaction images, but I feel like this might sum up many peoples feels about the appalling behavior of the people supposed to be passionate and caring. If you remove the fact that it's Trump you have a bunch of psychos jeering at an older brother who has just lost his younger brother, someone he grew up with and remained close to, that had been physically degrading for months making it clear that he wasn't getting better. I'm just left sickened.
