On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Cuomo Primetime,” DNC Chair Tom Perez stated, “when you create a climate, as this president has created, that invites violent acts, you should never be surprised when you have violent acts.”

Perez said, “[D]ays after we had a tragic shooting in Pennsylvania, less than a week after you have an arrest of someone in that Scooby Doo van with all the anti-CNN — and all the other things, when you create a climate, as this president has created, that invites violent acts, you should never be surprised when you have violent acts. And the American people are tired of it.”
