Minecraft launcher crashes after I press play, I can't figure out why it crashes.

I thought that once I pressed the play button, Minecraft would open and I would be able to play the game. But when I did press play, it showed the loading Mojang screen, then it crashed and brought me back to the main screen. I will attach a screenshot of what the Game Launcher says happened. I've tried deleting my .minecraft folder than re-installing it, but the same error occurred.
