Trump's Controversial Remark to Iowans: 'Get Over' School Shooting
At a campaign event in Iowa, Donald Trump faced criticism for telling attendees to "get over" a recent deadly school shooting in Perry, Iowa. His comments, which came after expressing sympathy, were part of a pattern of deflecting substantial conversations about gun violence, previously blaming Democrats and other factors rather than guns. Trump's remarks were condemned by the Democratic Super Pac American Bridge. Despite facing numerous legal challenges, Trump continues to lead in polls for the Republican presidential nomination. The Perry school shooting resulted in the death of one student and injuries to seven others, with the shooter also dying from a self-inflicted wound.
