How Trump, Clinton, and Other US Politicians Reacted to the Orlando Attack
Authorities are still investigating exactly what led to the killing of more than 50 people at a gay nightclub in Orlando on Sunday, but in the aftermath of the attack — the deadliest mass shooting in US history — the debate around national security and gun control is ramping up.
Both Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, and Hillary Clinton, his likely Democratic opponent in the November general election, have warned the other candidate would make Americans more vulnerable to attacks.
Clinton promised she would make gun control laws more stringent. Trump has dismissed such a move as an unnecessary infringement on the rights of gun owners, saying everyone would be safer if more people had firearms.
Trump, who has proposed banning all Muslim immigrants from entering the United States, first tweeted "Really bad shooting in Orlando. Police investigating possible terrorism. Many people dead and wounded."
