24. I hesitate to blame Trump ....

I hesitate to blame Trump because the villains here are a bunch of teenagers -- and we know that teenagers are very much immune to reading newspapers. More likely than being influenced in this by the President, they were influenced by their own family members and their bad companions .... who might, more remotely, have been influenced by Trump.
