You know.....maybe he is falling on the political grenade since he knows Republicans will shoot it down. Meanwhile, we get pissed at Trump but thankful for the Republicans in the House and Congress shooting "it" down and we create a Republican blowout during midterms. Its the equivalent of your buddy fucking a fat chick so you can fuck her hot best friend. I'm grasping straws here, I know.

I kind of think it's the same thing as health care vote and more recently, daca vote.  I was against the health care vote a few months ago because I want the Democrats to own that issue of course we were all against DACA and so now my best guess is Trump is trying to talk this up just like the other two knowing it will never pass

No offense, but are you fucking serious?

I sympathized with all the people who voted Trump because Trump was not Hillary.  And we don;t know what's going to happen.  And as far as the Second Amendment Trump's appointment of Gorush and other conservatives to the federal bench may be benefits.  (The counterargument is if Hillary had won we'd be almost assured congress would stay Republican).

Every time over the last 18 months that somebody pointed out Trump has no ideology or that Trump has basically fucked over everybody he ever made an agreement with it was "Sorry your girl lost" "Maga!" "5426D chess!" "Swamp people!" or all the other silly BS.   Yes, he might have been the only one that could have beaten the Hilldawg but this is kind of pathetically comical.

I read all of the comments on ARFCOM before actually watching the video (MISTAKE).

I am not a Trump fan boy (I did vote for him and am glad he won),  but I've got to say the worst part of the deal was the whole "take them then due process."  - that's BS and he looked stupid suggesting it.

He NEVER said he would support or sign an AWB.

He NEVER said he wanted UBCs

He clearly stated he wanted a STRONG bill that addressed backgrounds (Fix NICS).

He clearly thinks buying rifles and pistols should both be 21.

He doesn't like bump toys

That's it.

I don't like it one bit the he even gave these commies the forum, but good lord you guys can really are chicken little.  This is a nothingburger.

Everything else was a bunch of "You guys figure it out" and political theater.

He called on mental health laws that took guns first and figure out if they should have them later.

He also agree with some female Senator and Feinstein chimed in about "domestic situations" telling them both to make sure it was in the bill.

Someone's g/f gets mad, calls the cops and said the b/f threatened her.  *BAM* his guns are gone.  He can fight in court later to try to get them back.

You call that a nothingburger?

Trump has to know he will be primaried and most likely be a one term president if he signs an AWB.  If Trump is going to trade an AWB for arming teachers that is still going to cost him his second term.

And why support raising the age to 21 to by an AR15 if the are including an AWB?  That also makes no sense.

So we are either being royally sold out, or Trump is doing his DACA playbook thing for the media - knowing it won't reach his desk.

I have faith in a large majority of the republican controlled house stopping an AWB.  Especially after gun owners start contacting them.  And to be honest, I suspected Trump would be shakey on the 2nd amendment - just not sell us out shakey.

He's expected to play rope-a-dope with the Democrats and knock them down for the count, which basically means that a certain subset of Arfcommers will be fooled as well. Just because one is staunchly pro-2nd, doesn't mean they're the brightest bulb in the shack.

This is the danger of electing a populist and not a true conservative.  Everything he does is not a 4d chess strategy.  Sometimes it's just a matter of which way the wind is blowing.  I like a lot of what he has done since he's been in office, but in the the end I am a one issue voter and vote for the lesser of evils on 2A.  It didn't take long for him to cave this time, so even if no new legislation gets passed, the left knows that they have leverage with the next incident.  Unfortunately, he will probably be the lesser of evils in 20.  I can't imagine who the Dems would trot out that wouldn't be worse.

This board is getting as bad as it was during the election.  Fuck facts, my feelings are hurt so I don't care what is real or not.

If Trump gave Feinstein the go ahead to include an AW Ban then why at the very end of the meeting is she asking Trump "what do we do about these weapons of war" and goes on to talk about people buying AR15s?

Here is a direct link to the full video with her comment at the very end. She wouldn't be asking that question if she had already been given the go ahead for an AW Ban and Trump wouldn't have blown her off telling her to talk to the other Senators about it.
