President Donald Trump on Friday condemned a mass shooting at two mosques in New Zealand, then used the suspected shooter’s hateful rhetoric about Muslims to describe immigrants to the U.S.
Speaking from the Oval Office on Friday, the president called the terror attack a “horrible, horrible thing” and said he had called New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern “to express the sorrow of our entire nation,” according to a pool report.
