Donald and Melania Trump arrived in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on Tuesday to mourn the 11 victims of Saturday's Tree of Life synagogue massacre – dodging protesters without the benefit of congressional leaders to diffuse their anger.
Israel's ambassador to the U.S., Ron Dermer, also made the trip, along with Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner. Both are Orthodox Jews who serve as senior presidential advisers.
The Trumps and Dermer went with Rabbi Jeffrey Myers into the vestibule of the synagogue to light candles in the martyrs' memory. Then they laid stones and white flowers at each of the 11 memorial sites outside.
