Statement of American Psychological Assoc President in Response to Mass Shootings in Texas, Ohio

11. I said nothing about "mental illness".

My concern is that Trumps continued outburst about the immigrants and against black and hispanic people. I and many others believe that his terrible leadership is causing the shooting sprees. If so, he needs to be silenced if possible. The psychology experts could add weight to the theory that he and the right wing talk show hosts are creating exacerbating the terrible ideas in the minds of the shooters.
