government simply doesn't care to name names never prepared to really have long discussion under some of the problems world famous artist ai wei wei tells t w the authorities in hong kong are to blame for the violence of the protests that have shaken the territory over the past. i'm dr thomas thanks so much for joining us u.s. president donald trump has visited emergency workers and survivors of the mass shootings in all paso texas and dayton ohio where 31 people were killed and dozens wounded protesters in those cities have blamed trumps rhetoric for inflaming racial tensions in america we'll have more live from washington after this report. touching down into. axis donald trump stepped into

a border city with both the local politicians and the local community to come out to deliver some clear and emotional messages. where he says matters he's a person of how will someone people listen to you think it's going to be aware that what he says means something and it's a win that he next time you know he's across the country are afraid that they may be next today of all days we must hold the president accountable for that pattern of racism that has defined his administration from the people to politicians many sought to simply clarify what they feel the president has been slow to do. in this case we are dealing with domestic terrorism we're dealing with a white supremacist we're doing with racism for most of our recent history it's kind of flowed underground in this administration it's out in the open and it's

coming directly from president trump who in no uncertain terms has vilified and tried to dish human eyes the people of this community another of the president's would be replacements picked up the thought as grief and anger turned again to the question of who will achieve real change on gun control. he she is more concerned about losing their vote. and beating back the state for ideology he says guns are not the problem in mass shootings the issue is mental health. it's a dot hatred. is it a mental health issue. donald trump signed off his day now past 5 refusing to acknowledge any anger toward him. or the love the respect for the office of the president. it was i wish you could have been in there to see it and it's a time when polls suggest

a clear majority of americans support introducing background checks to buy firearms the enthusiasm the love the respect and also the telling let's see if we can get something done and republicans want to do it and democrats want to do it he also refused to seek a visibly increased appetite for gun law reform. ok let's go straight to washington where did i use a pablo foley alias and standing by for us this morning pablo president trump went to dayton and el paso to console the families of the victims and unite the shattered communities there did he manage to achieve that goal amidst all the political acrimony we saw there. well it depends on who you speak to brian of course the white house prior to donald trump's visit to dayton and so said that donald trump would be the healer in chief it was a very well as choreographed and staged well staged visit to both of those

cities donald trump matt survivors and medical professionals in private the focus was meant to be on meeting those but later photos of president don't trump meeting those survivors and medical stuff was released now there was not any contact between president donald trump and the protesters in particular in el paso there was a significant number there and in fact they became quite heated down in the texan city but president donald trump avoided mentioning even the protesters he instead charged against what he referred to the fake media and of course the democratic party and their public the political intensity of the of the attacks against president trump have been a steadily increasing with former vice president joe biden now the democratic

party's leading presidential contender accusing him of quote fueling a literal carnage how much is this sentiment shared by the democratic party leadership. well as we heard in the report there as well as you know joe biden did not mince his words he charged against president trump as did many other of the candidates in fact we heard from ed cory booker he blamed donald trump for encouraging hatred we also heard from betaworks from texas he suggested that. you know he said it was insulting for him and the people of done in fact that he had made the trip down there we also heard from senator elizabeth warren she's pledged to pass some serious legislation and had some stinging words as well against donald trump and virtually old the candidates in the democratic party were you know

shared a similar message in that they believe. a lot to answer for with regards his comments in recent days and weeks leading up to these 2 attacks in dayton and. we have seen some indications over the past few days that these shootings could lead to bipartisan action on gun control is that a possibility. i mean it's going to be very difficult brian and of course there have been voices in particular in ohio in fact of course that's where the city of dayton is the republican governor there said that action must be taken and we also heard from a few more republicans in the state they have been quite critical and gone against what is quite we'll say regular kind of comments from members of the republican party with regards to gun control there has been

a lot of mention of red flag laws and it does appear in fact that many republicans are in favor of those what are they they would be stricter controls in the sense that of course can issue an order where police officers or the police can take weapons off somebody who is potentially going to use those to harm people but like i said it's going to be very difficult to pass through the senate in particular considering that it's republican a republican majority there thanks so much from washington. let's bring you down some of the other stories making news this hour at least 3 people killed and 8 wounded in a double suicide attack in northeastern nigeria 2 women suspected of being members of the boko haram militant islamist group blew themselves up in the town of. boko haram has been repeatedly using female suicide bombers to attack targets like

days and we now have one chinese government official warning protesters that they shouldn't underestimate china's immense strength is that beijing warning that it may step in to deal with the protests directly i think of the. government because you know. they can crash them any time any moment under the. same tome when they're dealing with a new body given the boys are there for use in hong kong which is a much complex situation and i think they're just bluffing now but in deeply in their mind they would do it if they need to but do you think that the protesters in hong kong can continue to support the movement without any dialogue with the hong kong government and what are the options on the table right now for

the hong kong government to i think of the. hong kong government is there really part of the central government there listen to the central government i don't really want to have a new space for shooting that's why the demonstrations have being continue for so long on the call so much to hong kong. and i are buddies life and many young people already lost their life but the hong kong government simply doesn't hear the never prepared who really have for our discussion to solve the problem. but looking ahead now whatever the outcome of these protests do you think that something has fundamentally changed in the psyche of the hong kong people i think is a good question and i think the new generation for education self-educated
