*On Monday, Donald Trump FINALLY reached out to the man responsible for wrestling a gun from a shooter at a Waffle House in Tennessee last month.

Trump reportedly had a phone call with James Shaw Jr. on Monday morning to “commend his heroic actions and quick thinking,” White House principal deputy press secretary Raj Shah said during a daily press briefing.

“Mr. Shaw saved lives when he wrestled a gun from an active shooter who had opened fire,” said Trump.

Shaw has been hailed as a hero for tackling and disarming another homegrown white male terrorist as he shot up a Waffle House restaurant outside Nashville, Tennessee. Four people were killed and two others were injured, but police said Shaw’s actions likely prevented many others from being injured.

Shaw has raised over $240,000 for the victims of the Waffle House shooting.

Over the weekend, he met with Never Again activists and survivors of the Parkland, Florida, shooting for what one of the attendees called a “legendary breakfast.

Shaw’s alma mater, Tennessee State University, held a ceremony this month to honor him and announce the creation of a scholarship in his name.

“I was just trying to save myself. I did this with no recognition,” he said at the Tennessee State University event. “But it seems like it inspired so many people throughout the world. For that, I am greatly, greatly appreciative. To all of you, thank you.”
