Orlando Shooting Dominates The Week In Politics

This week, presumed Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump once again called for a temporary ban on Muslims and suggested President Obama was sympathetic to terrorists. Presumed Democratic Party nominee Hillary Clinton called Trump’s ideas nonsense, and called for a national assault weapons ban. Her rival Bernie Sanders, in a video message to supporters last night, didn’t concede the race and didn’t endorse Clinton.

CNN’s Juana Summers and ABC’s Rick Klein join Here & Now hosts Robin Young and Jeremy Hobson to discuss where the campaigns are now, on gun control and terrorism.
