Donald Trump is taking a victory lap on Twitter in light of the news that the suspect behind last night’s massacre in Orlando was motivated by religious extremism.

Earlier in the day, Trump tweeted out a message of mourning as the news broke about the fifty dead and the scores wounded at the Pulse nightclub. As the day went on, the FBI and other officials close to law enforcement said that there were indications that suspect Omar Mateen had extremist leanings and pledged allegiance to ISIS before the attack.

Trump, who has proposed hardline proposals like a temporary ban on Muslims from entering America, spotted another tweet about getting tough on terrorism.

Horrific incident in FL. Praying for all the victims & their families. When will this stop? When will we get tough, smart & vigilant?

As the indications on Mateen’s leanings came to a head, Trump topped it off with this tweet to his supporters.

Appreciate the congrats for being right on radical Islamic terrorism, I don't want congrats, I want toughness & vigilance. We must be smart!

UPDATE — 2:25 P.M. EDT: Trump wasn’t done yet.

Is President Obama going to finally mention the words radical Islamic terrorism? If he doesn't he should immediately resign in disgrace!

(would you mind reposting this in GD?, I'm concerned the mods might lock it because it is in GD)
