Donald Trump Partly Blames Video Games for Mass Shootings
Donald Trump Partly Blames Video Games ... for Mass Shootings
Donald Trump believes video games are partly to blame for the mass shootings in America -- claiming the "glorification of violence" is desensitizing potential real-life killers.
POTUS just delivered a speech from the White House in the wake of 2 mass shootings over the weekend in Ohio and Texas ... where 29 people were killed by domestic terrorists.
During his speech Monday morning, Trump noted 3 things the government can do to address the threat ... one of which is do a better job of regulating video game violence.
"We must stop the glorification of violence in our society -- this includes the gruesome and grizzly video games that are now commonplace," Trump said.
"It is too easy today for troubled youth to surround themselves with a culture that celebrates violence."
"We must stop or substantially reduce this and it has to begin immediately."
Trump is clearly referring to ultra-popular games like Fortnite, Red Dead Redemption 2, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Mortal Kombat and Grand Theft Auto ... where killing people is the point.
The issue with Trump's logic ... they have video games in other countries, right?
