Trump said he will instruct the Justice Department to work with Silicon Valley social media companies to create software that 'detects' potential mass shooters.

President Donald Trump called for a wide range of bipartisan solutions to help stop future mass shootings, even proposing social media companies create technology that detects potential shooters.

"We must recognize that the internet has provided a dangerous avenue to radicalize disturbed minds and perform demented acts," Trump said Monday in the wake of shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio which left 29 people dead."We must shine light on the dark recesses of the internet and stop mass murders before they start."

Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity - Bullet tooth Tony

What’s Thinkcrime

Lol mothofucka

...oh and btw, win my election for me too.

Um. WHAT?

Oy!!!!

And just how would you do that?

Gaslighting at it’s finest.... just give them your donor list.

Yeah I will get Tim Apple on that ASAP! 🍎 🖥

Stop the sale of weapons of mass destruction to public

While we are encouraging 24/7 surveillance of 320+ million Americans, can we also maybe address the fact that there are more guns in this country than like the next 20 countries combined? Asking for lots of my dead fellow citizens.

Trump recently saw Minority Report and he thinks he just came up with a brilliant idea and there is no downside to increasing the surveillance society. I’m sure the Libertarian Wing of the GOP will step up and do the right thing, yes?

Imagine if a person carrying several weapons and many rounds ammunition can be pinpointed while in a parking lot, outside a venue, by some sort of triangulating system that registers magnetic field responses.... Just an engineer’s suggestion...or should I politicize it

So after they report what they detect, is he going to warn them?

Should probably make it harder for them to get the guns to carry out the mass shootings too

They can begin note trumps disturbed mindset

The call’s coming from inside the White House.

“and that’s how the president minority reported his own 18-25 year-old base”

And that is only bc he doesn’t understand the law.

🤦🏻‍♂️

Somebody show this moron 'Minority Report,' please? 😲🙄😒

With what, their crystal ball?

It may be more prudent to detect those who should not have guns through more stringent background checks and exacting controls at the point of sale.

Step one: Drop Trump from Twitter

Get rid of the mass shooting guns!

Trump calling for censoring republicans by tech companies.

All tech companies are pointing to one person responsible.

Most of your tweets would probably be filtered out, realDonaldTrump

Fairy dust and hot air balloons might also help.

Can they also help detect and deter incompetent narcissists attempting to be politicians?

He needs to help them.... He should provide a list of all his donors, followers, and rally attendees....

It will be like detecting IDIOTS from running for President of the USA.

Perhaps he should ask them to detect all the election interference that may take place place from a certain foreign country before that occurs in 2020, too.

They should reach out to them and start a dialogue with them.

Oh man...this guy really is stupid! Maybe get a grip on all the guns before casting blame huh?

Trump is right

I’m listening...
