who are outraged, right? the folks running against donald trump the tucker carlson s the fox news is the republican trump surrogates. these are people who are outraged by this indictment. they were not outraged by trump s attempt to overturn a democratic election. they were not outraged by the violence on january 6th. they were not outraged by an illegal phone call to the georgia secretary of state and illegal phone call to have a lot of mirror zelinsky. they re not outraged by multiple credible accusations of sexual harassment, assault and rape. they re not outraged by trump s sexist, bigoted, homophobic, xenophobic rhetoric. they re not outraged by his white nationalism. they re not outraged by his defense of into semitism and neo. they re not outraged by all that stuff. so, with all due respect no one should care that these people are outraged by this indictment . such an interesting point. there s so much more to talk about, and the good news is everyone s on. this panel is going t
trump s frequent racist remarks and racist rhetoric. the president used some of the strongest language to date to condemn white supremacy. there is a long list of things that this president has said that mirrors some of what we saw in the suspected shooter s manifesto in el paso, things that immigrants are invaders, suggesting that sanctuary cities are making remarks about not being surprised if george soros is funding migrant caravans. it s something that resonates with racists as we saw in el paso. it s unclear as we saw if the president is going to stop using that kind of rhetoric. certainly sticking with the prompter. that does not answer the question for us. thank you. outfront tonight, 2020 democratic presidential candidate amy klobuchar. i appreciate your time tonight. president trump today said the
in the senate, house speaker nancy pelosi and chuck schumer put out a statement saying let s come off summer vacation for the senate. let s pass background check legislation. the person who has been silent is mitch mcconnell. why do you think he is not stepping up right now? because he and his party have been walking lock step with the nra for years. and i was asked this on the cnn debate stage. and i made it clear that we can talk policy all you want. i think we all know things that would help here, everything from the bill to close the boyfriend loop hole to going after domestic abusers. mitch mcconnell won t let these bills come up for a vote. and the president never pushes them. he just says he s for them and then goes back to his job and goes out to these rallies and foments hate.

so we know this is not one of these things where congress is a mess. it is very clear where democrats are on this. that bill with all those great new members in the congress and the house of representatives passed with a strong vote. and now it s sitting on mitch mcconnell s door step. and it s time for him to get it done. yes, we should all come back and vote for it. i d go there tomorrow. i can take a red eye from california. the president today said he supported the background checks. he also floated the idea of linking any kind of legislation on background checks to immigration legislation. and his comment was republicans and democrats must come together and get strong background checks perhaps marrying the legislation with immigration reform. we know the shooter in el paso explicitly killed because of anger in immigration echoing the
