I just wonder how Trump will spin the mass shooting in Las Vegas.

My thoughts and prayers go out the victims and their families. This is becoming an unto familiar thing, more violence with weapons, killing innocent people who are out enjoy everyday life,

Trump had better wait until the whole story gets out, before he spouts out his rhetoric.

then cry "fake news" when called out on it. If its rational like" Our hearts and prayers go out to the victims of this senseless attack and I will see that law enforcement professionals are given all assistance necessary to get to the bottom of it." You'll knnow Kelly or one of his folk wrote it...

Hopefully he'll shock us all and handle it with tact and competence as we would usually expect from a president. Not holding my breath, though.

The victims were at a country music festival.. something that conservatives tend to relate and gravitate to.

If the shooter turns out to be anything other than white male with conservative links/background, this could very well end up being the modern "Reichstag fire" I've been anticipating since the election.
