Ana Navarro, another anti-Trump host, weighed in by invoking the race of the killer, Thomas Matthew Brooks. "We need to react not as left or right, not as Republicans or Democrats. We need to react as Americans, and we need to ask better," Navarro said.

Joy Behar's commentary focused on the lack of reporting on the killer's purchase of ammunition prior to the attack. She questioned why no one had raised concerns about a 20-year-old White man acquiring such firepower.
