Trump says ‘hate has no place in our country’
President Donald Trump is denouncing two mass shootings in Ohio and Texas, saying ” hate has no place in our country. ”
Addressing reporters in Morristown, New Jersey, Trump said Sunday that ” we’re going to take care ” of the problem. He says he’s been speaking to the attorney general, FBI director and members of Congress and will be making an additional statement Monday.
Trump pointed to a mental illness problem in the U.S., calling the shooters ” really very seriously mentally ill. ”
He says the problem of shootings has been going on ” for years and years ” and ” we have to get it stopped. ”
The shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, over the weekend left at least 29 people dead.
