Are the shootings in America this weekend Trump's fault?

I'm not a big fan of Donald Trump but, on the news yesterday, I heard several liberal politicians and pundits blame him for the mass shootings which took place this weekend. While they were quick to blame him, they never quite got around to explaining how he is responsible. Do you believe that Trump bears any responsibility for the shootings? If so, why?

Of course not. The shooter is responsible.

They believe that Trump egged him on by saying things that Trump never actually said.

We too have such so called self acclaimed liberals and intellects who can be so selective and misguided. Better to just ignore them. I sometimes feel that they make such illogical statements to grab attention.

Come on, the liberals blame everything to the President. For sure if Pelosi would get pregnant, they would blame Trump. Hahaha

I don't even want to consider that scenario.

Trump is doing everything he can to stir up hatred between different groups. I definitely think he has some blame in all of this.

I don't remember Trump calling anyone a Nazi like his opponents frequently call him. I'm not saying Trump is blameless, he isn't. But his nasty tweets are usually in response to being attacked.

No. Using their criteria then Obama was responsible for the greater number of shootings that happened on his watch.
