"Trump said he supports a ban on assault weapons and longer waiting periods on gun purchases."

Yes he did. He said that in his book, fifteen years ago.

Let's put that into context, shall we?

In his 2002 campaign for governor, Mitt Romney said during a debate, "I will preserve and protect a woman's right to choose...". Even so, when he ran for POTUS in 2012, few here believed he had truly changed. I know I didn't.

In his 2000 book "The America We Deserve" Trump said he was for banning guns and extending the waiting periods to buy them. That was 15 years ago. However, just two years ago he praised former New York mayor Michael Bloomberg for "Putting his money where his mouth is on guns" aka, using his millions to try to take guns from law-abiding citizens. But we're supposed to believe he is 100% pro-Second Amendment just two years later because he says he is during a presidential campaign?

I don't, and I don't for the same reasons I didn't believe Romney.

“Trump has always operated on “other people’s money.”
He’s one of the great scamsters of all time.”

Care to elaborate?
