Trump said the alleged shooter acted for anti-christian reasons
President of theUnited States Donald Trump has stated that thealleged perpetrator of the shooting at the White House correspondents'dinner acted motivated by a deep "hatred" towards Christians based on information gathered by the authorities after the incident.
In a telephone interview with Fox News, Trump said the attacker is "a guy in trouble , "and that the radical religious base is .
"He hates Christians. That's right. He hates them a lot, too, "the US president stressed.
According to Trump, even the attacker's family "knew of these problems." "His family knew he had difficulties. Maybe they should have reported it a little more firmly. It's probably hard to do, but it's a very bad situation."
These statements are consistent with what Attorney General Todd Blanche said, who, in statements to NBC, confirmed that the alleged perpetrator targeted Trump and other seniorgovernment officials.
Although Trump has emphasized the author's "anti-Christian" character, Blanche has been more cautious because, although the data initially collected suggest an attack on the administration, they have only been investigating what happened for 24 hours, so official reasons remain under analysis.
