The other mass shooting that happened at the night club, the guy shot his sister. I mean, please tell me how that can be blamed on Trump

Try maintaining a bit of perspective nobody is suggesting that trumps responsible for every shooting ever.
It is specifically the targetted attacks in reference to incitement by Trump and his policies.
In the space of one week there were 2 attacks, (the garlic festival and El paso) in which the killers themselves referenced wording that could have come direct from a trump rally, this quote is part if the july 28th garlic festival killers monologue prior to the attack 'hordes of*mestizos'...
Now you would have to be really blinkered to not see the correlation here...
