Trump Denounces Mass Shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio

U.S. President Donald Trump denounced the two mass shootings in Ohio and Texas while speaking to reporters in Morristown, New Jersey, on his way back to Washington, Sunday, August 4.

He said, "hate has no place in our country," and that "we're going to take care" of the problem. He also noted that he would speak with the U.S. Attorney General, FBI director and members of Congress and will be making an additional statement Monday, August 5.

Trump pointed to a mental illness problem in the U.S., calling the shooters "really very seriously mentally ill."

The shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, over the weekend left at least 29 people dead.

“Hate has no place in our country”

Okay then what have you been doing these past 3 years?

[scottmorrow]

Lets go to Chicago and talk to the 1000s of family members killed each year with guns and violence

Trump and the Republican Party is to blame for not supporting gun common sense legislature, military-grade weapons have no place in today's society. Congress needs to restrict gun ownership to single-shot revolvers and bolt-action rifles and over/under or double-barrel
shotguns.

That's it? He should have said a lot more. I'm sorry but this is NOT enough.

[teetime]

God help me, I’m close to hating him, that’s all there is to it! I just can’t stand to hear his voice, such a despicable being.

[theboatman]

If the left-wingers would stop going psycho and get some help we wouldn't have all this hate.

[thelazytyler]

Honestly .Its not trumps fault, its the people who voted for him whom we should blame.

[DreamsMachine]

Just filling in the blank... What a disgrace.

[jesusfuenmayor]

Stop formatting hate, ow nit, stop the invasion, you're words .

[danhemming]

I was surprised that Trumpf did thank the shooter for keeping US Citizens and Law Enforcement Officers on their toes. Was he a "Good Man, with a Gun?". It all depends on perspective, right? How can you tell a "Good man, with a gun to a Bad man, with a gun?"

[tiffanyleal]

Hate has no place in our country says the man the made all the hate

[theanswer]

His fakeness is so apparent! He doesn't mean a word it.

[valeriemontano]

As a president of the United States his speech should have been more sincere for the victim's family so sad

[williamwolfcastle]

That's fake Milana she's the stand in and his words aren't sincere he contradicts himself it's like he's happy it happened and she's sad that we have to be here and talk about it

killed so many people in such a short time is that a compliment

[davidzigala]

Melania looks like Michael Jackson. Her face is starting to crumble.

[janetmcginn]

Take off your sunglasses. Show some respect.

[Thefunkeemonkee]

He always says the same shitty script. It could’ve been worst and I am thankful for the wonderful job they have done.... every other interview he says the same.

[miguelg]
