It is the height of hypocrisy for Donald Trump to single out mental illness as a primary cause of gun violence when one of his first acts as president was to sign into law the Republican enacted legislation restoring to those mentally ill the right to
acquire guns.
It is dispiriting to hear Donald Trump robotically condemn white supremacists and their violent attacks even as he incites that violence by continuously casting the victims as invaders and threats to the nation.
And now he has the gall to profess his sorrow and solidarity with a community he has vilified and demeaned. As a man wholly lacking a moral core or an ounce of empathy, Mr. Trump is incapable of giving comfort or conveying authentic concern.
