President Donald Trump has partly directed blame toward violent video games for two mass shootings that left 31 people dead over the weekend, saying that the “glorification of violence” must stop.
Speaking to reporters at the White House on Aug. 5, Trump denounced the mass slayings, hate crimes, and white supremacy as he addressed the nation about the shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, which occurred within 13 hours of each other.
