Waffle House shooting hero says he still hasn't heard from Trump

The 29-year-old man who is being hailed as a hero after he intervened to disarm an active shooter at a Tennessee Waffle House says he has yet to hear from President Trump or the White House.

However, the White House claimed Tuesday that it had reached out to coordinate a potential meeting between Trump and Shaw, which is apparently a "misstatement".

"I haven't heard anything, but that's not to say he didn't try to contact me, or not," Shaw said. "I know he has a busy agenda, a busy schedule. Maybe he just hasn't got around to me. Maybe my time is coming."

"It's not for me to judge really what he does," Shaw added. "I did what I did and I didn't really do it for recognition."

“I’m not a hero. I’m just a regular person, and I think anybody could have did what I did if they are just pushed into that kind of cage,” Shaw said at a news conference last month, The Washington Post reported.

Interestingly, Donald Trump has never publicly said anything about James Shaw. Never tweeted praise or a thank you or anything.

There's something about the Waffle House Hero that's different from the people Trump lavishes praise upon. I can't put my finger on it...

A black hero who stopped a shooter without a gun? Trump's worst nightmare.

1. Because he was a hero and more of a man than you will ever be.

2. Trump's White House never called him, and then lied by saying they did.

I know you’re being sarcastic AC, but to be honest, I’d rather you not mince words. We know why Trump has ignored this man and it’s sickening. Yet, James Shaw Jr. still remains humble and respectful. Qualities our so-called president will never understand.
