“We have to do something about maybe what they’re seeing and how they’re seeing it, and also, video games,” said Trump, speaking during a discussion on school safety at the White House. “I’m hearing more and more people say the level of violence on video games is really shaping young people’s thoughts.”

Of course. Anything rather than actually do something about the problem.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Don't forget that satanic game Mazes and Monsters.

He may have a point. When I was a kid, I played a lot of Snakes and Ladders. Now, I take every opportunity I can to kill a snake with a ladder.
