President Trump Asks Dianne Feinstein to Add ‘Assault Weapons’ Ban to School Safety Bill

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government ... fety-bill/
Whoa.
Yep. Look at the absolute glee on Feinstein's face when Trump announces there should be an assault weapons ban. She claps her hands and smiles. She almost jumps in her chair.

That video made me throw up in my mouth a lot.

I almost wonder if he's just throwing everything into one giant Frankenstein bill that's so bloated with garbage it could never pass in a republican-controlled congress. "Add that in, add this in" yet he commented that national reciprocity needed to be removed for the rest of that bill to pass. Maybe he knows combination bills are almost certain to fail, so he's combining all of these awful anti-gun bill into a Hindenburg? Here's hoping...

Even if he's playing them, he's playing with fire while sitting next to a 55 gallon drum of kerosene. I don't have a huge sample, but from what I've seen people aren't impressed with what he was saying yesterday.

Same. I posted on Facebook about it and got an unusual amount of profanity directed at Trump from conservative friends who don't typically comment on my posts. The BEST reaction I got was one of optimistic exasperation. I had one friend so irritated about Trump's comments on national reciprocity that he about threw his phone lol

“Take the guns first, go through due process second,” Trump said.
Yeah I caught that too in reference to mental health.

This stuff right here is why I was so against voting for Trump. I still did it because the alternative was the Hildabeest, but I suspected from the start that his allegiance was too easily swayed. He flipped between Democrat, Republican, and Independent so many times over the past few decades that I asserted we couldn't trust him to remain conservative once he was in office. The proof is in the orange pudding.

This is an excellent analogy and you are spot-on about the 2018 mid-term elections.

The 2018 elections are probably the most important mid-term elections in decades. Republicans only hold a one vote margin in the Senate. If the Democrats take control, then there's no chance Trump will be able to appoint conservative judges to fill two and possibly three Supreme Court vacancies before the 2020 Presidential election. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the Democrats want to lose the AR-15 battle so they can use it as a battle cry in November.

Chas.

And this is why I will never get into politics. Too much conniving, sneaking, and tomfoolery.
