2025 MAC Swimming and Diving Championship Preliminaries 2/28

The internet shared plenty of responses on Monday after President Donald Trump blamed Brown University over his own FBI for failing to swiftly catch the suspect in a mass shooting on campus this weekend.

A manhunt was underway Monday while investigators continued to search for the suspect in the shooting that left two students dead and nine others injured over the weekend in Providence, Rhode Island. During a press conference on Monday, Trump suggested that the university had somehow mismanaged the initial investigation.

"It's always difficult. So far, we've done a very good job of doing it, with Charlie [Kirk], with the various times this has happened. They've done it pretty much in record time. You'd really have to ask the school about that," Trump said.

Social media users responded to Trump's comments:

"He is literally the worst person," user Hayley Becker wrote on X.

"If you watch carefully you can see the specific instant when Trump decides to try to shift blame for the failure to catch the perpetrator of the Brown University shooting from Kash Patel and the FBI - who claimed credit for catching the wrong person yesterday - to the university," Aaron Fritschner, deputy chief of staff for Rep. Don Beyer (D-VA), wrote on X.

"He just really blamed the school for getting shot up I hate it here," user Mari wrote on X.

"Then: FBI chief takes credit for detaining 'person of interest' in Brown U. shooting (person later released). https://x.com/fbidirectorkash/status/2000244040667676940?s=46 Now: Go ask the school why they haven’t caught anyone," writer Paul Farhi wrote on X.

"I didn't think it was possible for his Rob Reiner post to be the second most repulsive thing he said today," MeidasTouch editor Ron Filipkowski wrote on X.

"This guys could give a s---- about anything that he can’t profit from or denigrate others. Despicable that Americans voted for this disgraceful man," user Mike Swain wrote on X.
