I think he was right to go to Pittsburgh, not today. It became an extremely awkward day for the president. He did the right thing in wanting to go and comfort families. But the awkwardness started right after the fact that he arrived basically with his wife alone.
David Gergen discusses the president's visit to Pittsburgh, stating it was the right intention but poorly timed.

It's very, very big. Not legally, but politically, it's a very, very big deal.
If he had a receptive audience, and I will tell you, when everything -- when all the facts were to come out, it would be like Nixon and the tapes.
Sadly, you know, I think for a variety of reasons he should not. I just, I don't think either Trump or Biden should be running.
If he comes out and throws cold water on this, then I don't think it goes anywhere.
