Summary
"I would like to stay out of the political fray," President Donald Trump told reporters on Wednesday before meeting with shooting victims in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio. But the president jumped into the political spotlight as he blasted local Democratic officials who confronted him on gun reform, accusing Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, and Dayton Mayor Nan Whaley of being "very dishonest people" and "politicking" after the pair held a press conference following their meeting with Trump.....misrepresenting what took place inside of the hospital. Escobar, who's criticized Trump's anti-immigrant language, tells "Start Here" she didn't meet with Trump because there wouldn't be any time for "meaningful dialogue" to discuss his rhetoric and gun reform. "In Ohio, the Dayton suspect may have searched for Antifa, or for Bernie Sanders, or Elizabeth Warren, but the profile that we're getting from our law enforcement sources is that it wasn't a political motivation," ABC News Senior Investigative Reporter Aaron Katersky says.
