Murphy: Trump on ‘deliberate campaign to make violence more likely’

Senator Murphy attributes increased U.S. violence to Trump administration policies including gun rights restoration and cutting violence prevention grants, citing 46,728 gun deaths in 2023.

  • On Sunday, Democrat Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy accused President Donald Trump of leading a campaign to increase violence less than 24 hours after the Brown University shooting that left two dead and nine wounded, with a person of interest in custody.
  • Murphy said Trump eliminated the White House Office of Gun Violence Protection and cut mental-health and community anti-violence grants, linking these shifts to foreseeable violence increases last year.
  • The White House issued a furious response, and Abigail Jackson wrote, `Before spreading these lies, Chris Murphy should take a look in the mirror,` while Dana Bash pressed Murphy on his accusations.
