Real estate mogul and 2016 Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump tweeted Thursday that a mass-casualty shooting at a historic black church in Charleston, S.C. was “incomprehensible.”
Trump’s tweet referenced a Wednesday attack that occurred at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church and left nine black people dead at the hands of white gunman Dylann Roof.
Trump’s tweet is below:
The tragedy in South Carolina is incomprehensible. My deepest condolences to all.
