“We are also going to have to make sure that we think about the risks we are willing to take by being so lax in how we make very powerful firearms available to people in this country”, said the president.
“We grieve today for all of the victims of the horrific attack in Orlando: for the dozens of innocents killed and wounded, for their loved ones and their families, for the LGBT community, for the City of Orlando and for our country”, said Bronin.
“The horror is beyond description”.
“He either doesn’t get it, or he gets it better than anybody understands, it’s one or the other, and either one is unacceptable”, Trump said after he was asked about his request for the president to step down. “Likewise, our whole nation and, indeed, the whole world is devastated”.

I will tell you who the better friend is. “And some day I believe that will be proven out bigly”, he said.
