Trump: Hundreds more would have died in Texas if gun laws were stricter

[SHRED]

He's a danger to America.
But you know that.

At a press conference Tuesday in South Korea, Trump was asked if he would consider seeking “extreme vetting” for gun purchasers similar to what he has advocated for individuals entering the U.S. from other countries. Trump said such screenings would not have stopped Sunday’s gunman, who killed 26 people inside a Texas church, and could potentially have stopped another gun owner from confronting the shooter.

4. And the shooter had one additional wound to the head, almost certainly

self-inflicted, which had to be the fatal one beyond a shadow of a doubt.

6. Ok. So it would NOT have stopped a mentally ill domestic abuser from buying a gun BUT

It might have stopped a normal citizen from doing so???
