Trump To Talk About 'School Safety,' But Will He Do Anything About Guns?
The president has meetings scheduled with students and teachers centered on safety after the latest mass shooting at a high school in Florida. But so far, he has avoided addressing guns.
President Trump is facing calls to act in the wake of the latest mass shooting, which killed 17 people on Wednesday at a high school in Florida. The White House says the president will participate in a pair of listening sessions on school safety this week, but so far he has dodged questions about whether he will take up the issue of access to guns.
The cyclical aftermath of the nation's mass shooting has repeated itself several times during Trump's year-old presidency, including with the deadliest mass shooting in the nation's history when 52 people were killed on the Las Vegas strip last October, and when 32 people were killed at a church service in Sutherland Springs, Texas, in November.
