Trimming the quote that way makes the statement sound like he's claiming it is what it is, nothing we can do about it, deal with it. Its dishonest reporting, and as we saw with the edited Kamala clips its manipulative. Want to put him on the spot for not doing anything about it, do that. Don't just change the quote.

As a sitting US senator who can influence or change laws to prevent such atrocities, the trimmed quote is more accurate. If Captain Eyeliner really hates that these things can happen, then use the power of your position to change these things. Fact of the matter is he doesn’t give a #### and only says these these things to deflect responsibility.
