Trump Calls for Gun Control, Immigration Deal in Wake of Attacks freebeacon.com/issues/trump-c…
"We cannot allow ourselves to feel powerless," he said. "We can and will stop this evil contagion. In that task, we must honor the sacred memory of those we have lost by acting as one people." the President said.
Adding "Open wounds cannot heal if we are divided. We must seek real bipartisan solutions. We have to do that in a bipartisan manner that will truly make America safer and better for all."
The President focused on mental health, combating the racist ideology that inspired the El Paso shooting, red flag laws, and violent video games.
Ultimately, the president identified mental illness and hatred as the cause of the violence.
"Mental illness and hatred pulled the trigger, not the gun," he said.
"The NRA welcomes the president's call to address the root causes of the horrific acts of violence that have occurred in our country," the gun-rights group said.
"It has been the NRA's long-standing position that those who have been adjudicated as a danger to themselves or others should not have access to firearms and should be admitted for treatment."
