Cory Booker Responds to Mass Shootings: Trump “is Responsible” for “Sowing the Seeds of Hatred”

Twenty-nine murdered in less than 24 hours. A president who refuses to take responsibility for the hatred and violence he inspires. A political culture that fails to offer solutions that we know will save lives. This is what Cory spoke to this morning in the wake of the tragedies in El Paso, TX and Dayton, OH.
Cory believes that Donald Trump is responsible for sowing the seeds of hatred that lead to this violence -- his racism and bigotry inspire white supramacists who carry out attacks like the one we saw yesterday in El Paso. 
But Cory also made clear that mass shootings are not a problem without a solution. That’s why he has the most sweeping gun violence prevention plan of anyone running for president, the plan includes commonsense steps like banning assault weapons and requiring federal gun licensing that would keep guns out of the wrong hands and put an end to this epidemic.
