President Trump Addresses Shooting in Philadelphia While Condemning the Rioting

“What I am witnessing is terrible and, frankly, the mayor or whoever it is that is allowing people to riot and loot and not stop them is also just a horrible thing,” Trump told reporters during a press conference at his Las Vegas hotel.

“I saw the event, everybody did. It was on television. It was a terrible event,” Trump continued. “I guess that is being looked at very strongly. The federal government is looking at it also but the rioting in Philadelphia, you have to stop it. They have to stop it. It is a local thing, as you know.”
