President Trump called for an end to political correctness when discussing terrorism following Saturday night's attack in London that left seven dead and almost 50 injured.

We must stop being politically correct and get down to the business of security for our people. If we don't get smart it will only get worse — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 4, 2017



"We must stop being politically correct and get down to the business of security for our people. If we don't get smart it will only get worse," Trump tweeted.

He then slammed London Mayor Sadiq Khan, who had tried to calm his city early Sunday morning with a statement that said there would be more police on the streets in the coming days and there's "no reason to be alarmed."

At least 7 dead and 48 wounded in terror attack and Mayor of London says there is "no reason to be alarmed!" — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 4, 2017



"At least 7 dead and 48 wounded in terror attack and Mayor of London says there is ‘no reason to be alarmed!'" Trump tweeted.

Two terrorist attacks took place in London on Saturday night. In one, terrorists drove a van at about 50 miles per hour into a crowd of people on London Bridge. At about the same time, multiple people were stabbed in a nearby part of London.

Police announced they shot and killed all of the suspects, who were wearing explosive vests. They did not have time to detonate those bombs. At least one innocent bystander was shot by police in the confusion, police said.

Trump poked at Democrats and other gun control activists Sunday morning as well, noting their silence in the wake of the attacks.

Do you notice we are not having a gun debate right now? That's because they used knives and a truck! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 4, 2017



"Do you notice we are not having a gun debate right now? That's because they used knives and a truck!" he tweeted.

Not long after firing off that series of tweets, Trump left the White House for his Virginia golf course. While the White House wouldn't confirm Trump was golfing, he appeared to be dressed for the links, according to a press pool report.

His comments stirred up more outrage from critics on Twitter, but Khan himself couldn't be bothered to respond

Khan "is busy working with police, emergency services and the government to coordinate the response to this horrific and cowardly terrorist attack and provide leadership and reassurance to Londoners and visitors in our city," a spokesman said.

"He has more important things to do than respond to Donald Trump's ill-informed tweet that deliberately takes out of context his remarks urging Londoners not to be alarmed when they saw more police — including armed officers — on the streets."
