Just want to say, with more than just an upvote, that I agree with you. My shit-eating grin at the news did fade when learning that his children were in the crowd. They did not ask to be born with that dickhead as a father, and now have to live with one of the most traumatic thing a child can go through.
I think one can be happy that there is one less fascist spewing hate in the world, but still feel sympathy for a couple of innocent children. There is no contradiction here.

They were going to do that no matter what, that’s just what they do in the griftosphere. The only difference is they won’t be able to see him for the piece of shit he is themselves.

In the video where he defends gun deaths, he claims that the lack of fathers in the home leads to some of these gun deaths.
