If you’re angry that you’re stuck inside, your kids are out of school/college, your loved ones are losing their jobs, the economy is crashing, people are suffering and dying - remember in November that @realDonaldTrump and his lackeys knew and did nothing. NOTHING. https://t.co/jAoQOHRLTX

I want a president who gets emotional about an issue that kills 100 Americans - and injures hundreds more - every day. If you’re a Trump or Bernie supporter who thinks @JoeBiden’s outrage over gun violence will offend the electorate’s sensibilities, you’re not paying attention. https://t.co/e7EP0fRbXK

Virginia hasn’t voted for a Republican presidential candidate since 2004, and a Republican hasn’t won a statewide Virginia election since 2009. In November, gun safety was the number one issue for Virginia voters, and those voters supported Democratic candidates 2-to-1. So... no https://t.co/v1gUIkzYDa
