AP’s Josh Boak: “Given the killing of the UnitedHealthCare executive, what would you say to Americans who might sympathize with Luigi Mangione’s purported manifesto indicating that insurance companies ultimately care more about their profits than the health of their customers? Is that — is that —”
KJP: “So, let me just — oh, I’m sorry.”
Boak: “— is that, like, do you — is that premise accurate in any way?”

KJP: “So, let me just say at the top — um — offer up — uh — certainly our condolences to the victims and his loved ones. We are certainly tracking the latest regarding this deadly shooting. As you all know, local enforcement is leading the investigation and the FBI certainly is supporting, so we will know more as they complete their work, and we’re going to give them the space to do just that, and we are grateful to law enforcement for apprehending the suspect, and we stand ready to provide further support if needed and so, while we’re certainly not going to comment on the investigation, we condemn, we condemn violence in the strongest term, and so, I’m just going to be really careful here and not comment on this case as we do normally. It’s not — uh — it’s our usual step forward as we talk about these types of situations. Obviously this is horrific violence to combat any sort of corporate greed is unacceptable and so that is as far as I’m going to go. I’m going to let the investigation move forward and I’m not going to speak to any manifestos or anything that is coming out to this.”

CNN’s Lee: “Can you give us any sense of how the President himself has been processing those headlines? I think even just setting aside the debate that it has prompted about the healthcare industry, I think just the image itself has been so shocking to a lot of people.”

KJP: “Yeah, and — and I’m gonna be honest, I haven’t had a — a deep dive conversation with the President about this. Obviously, I know that he has been updated — uh — uh — certainly have, have talked to him about what — what has been reported — um — and he’s been updated by senior members — other senior members of his team, so haven’t gone into the images or anything like that specifically — uh — but what I can say and what we’ve been pretty consistent, and I just mentioned this to one of your colleagues is denouncing violence — uh — and how horrific this obviously this incident — uh — is, and it is important to certainly continue to — to say it’s unacceptable, continue to say — uh — that we condemn it, and we are trying to be really mindful because this is an ongoing — uh — legal matter and so, what we say at this podium, as you know — uh — goes — uh — far and wide and has impact, so we’re trying to be super, super careful from here — uh — but the thing that I can say is condemn the violence that we have that we saw — uh — certainly last couple of days, the couple of days ago on this — on this issue.”
