Trump Blames Mass Shootings On 'Cultural & Spiritual Problems' At NRA Meeting | Trump Latest News
Former President Donald Trump said on Friday (April 14) that mass shootings in the United States were not caused by the number of guns available but by "mental health, social, cultural and spiritual" problems.
Speaking at the National Rifle Association's leadership forum in Indianapolis, Trump claimed the Unites States has been "chock-full of guns for centuries, and there was no talk of massacres of schoolchildren until around the year 2000."
Referring to the March 26 school shooting in Nashville that killed three children and three adults, Trump said measures proposed for gun control "would do nothing to prevent attacks by demented and disturbed individuals.''
Trump, whom the NRA enthusiastically backed in 2016 before he was even officially declared the Republican presidential candidate, said he would push for a new tax credit to reimburse teachers who obtain a concealed-carry firearm and receive training.
The conference is taking place at a key moment in the Republican presidential campaign.
A number of hopefuls, including Trump's closest rival, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, are deliberating on whether to jump in to the 2024 race to challenge the former president for the nomination. DeSantis and other White House hopefuls, U.S. Senator Tim Scott and former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley, addressed the NRA by video message.
