Told that the El Paso killer used some of the same rhetoric as him, and asked if he regrets his words, Trump responds, “I think that illegal immigration — you’re talking about illegal immigrants, right? Yes? I think illegal immigration is a terrible thing for this country.”

Trump being the white supremacist racist Trump we know and loathe. Trump thinks he can convince people to act on gun control?
Fuck that - Demand McConnell allow the House gun control package come to floor for a vote. He can’t and wont do that, even though that’s the easiest thing imaginable. Trump’s fine letting this wilt and die, just like so many more gun victims will nationwide (mass shootings are just a fraction of the overall gun violence we see at a rate not matched elsewhere in the developed world).
