Liberals on Twitter were berating Trump for smiling. Well, the family is smiling too, maybe everyone is happy the girl survived? So awful.

Stoneman Douglas High School girls basketball player Maddy Wilford — who was shot several times and ‘fighting for her life’ in the immediate aftermath of Wednesday’s Parkland shooting — is now in stable condition and received a visit from President Trump and the First Lady late Friday night.
Flocked by family members, Wilford was photographed with the President and First Lady, who traveled to South Florida and visited victims in the hospital. Wilford is currently recuperating at Broward Health North Medical Center in Deerfield Beach, Florida.
An Eagles’ teammate, who did not wish to be named, told the Sun Sentinel earlier on Friday that Wilford was stable after having her third surgery earlier in the day. The basketball team plans to visit her on Saturday.
Wilford’s improvement is a momentary boost for a community that’s been ravaged by unthinkable pain and heartache over the past three days. In Wednesday’s school shooting, 17 people were killed and 16 were injured.
Wilford, who wears No. 20 for the Stoneman Douglas basketball team, was supposed to be playing in a playoff game on Thursday, but instead, was in the hospital going through multiple surgeries.
