Let the Massacres Continue 0

Daniel Ruth excoriates the response of Donald Trump and many others to the most recent American gun massacre. If his column sounds kind of tired, the words “most recent” in the preceding sentence may give you a hint as to why. Here’s a snippet (emphasis added):

Trump dismissed the Sutherland Springs tragedy as the perverse handiwork of an individual with “mental health” issues. “This isn’t a guns situation,” the president of the United States said before resuming his thoughts and prayers.

Even more bizarrely, Trump expressed astonishment that a gunman could enter a church in rural Texas and kill 26 people. “Who would think a thing like this could ever happen?” he wondered.

To answer Trump’s question there in second paragraph, anyone who pays freaking attention to the headlines, for Pete’s sake.

This is the very picture of weaponized imbecility.
