Continuing observations and anaysis confirm Congress is a rectum; hence the crappy laws.

I told DW last night that there will be another mass murder shooting just before the Congress reconvenes next month!

Just a hunch, but given the times, an educated guess.

We’re watching. If he vetoes ref flag and universal background check bills that come out of Congress, we’ll vote for him.

Hopefully someone who actually knows what the Second Amendment means, from the perspective of the Founder’s actual original intent will explain it to him.

On this topic, I fear President Trump is somewhat ignorant, terribly naive and poorly advised.

All these murderers are supposedly mentally ill. Evil is out of fashion today, even though that is the real motivation of these killers.

I believe him. His problem solving skills are legend, or should be. I mean, who else was able to back everyone away from the brink on North Korea? Who even thought it was possible? Against the madman Kim.

PDT broke the ice and let the madman show that he was not all mad, and perhaps would actually welcome a way out himself. A miracle! Not a divine miracle. But as close as a mere mortal could get.

Of course, when talking about Democrats, we’re talking about people who truly are all mad. Down to the bone mad. Slobbering, snarling mad. Mad dog mad.

But we will see.

If anyone can do it, Donald Trump can.

Listen to President Trump Congress-GOPers and don’t even think about wavering on 2nd Amendment rights. If you do, be prepared to kiss your cushy job goodbye.

Yep - and more recently, the concern trolls went nuts over NYT tale about him wanting to re-empower the NSA to spy on us.

“Kamela Harris is calling for a Red Flag Law that would disarm “White Nationalists” and those who use “Hate Language.”
So Mr. President, are you still calling for Red Flag Laws?”

I pray he won’t —it would be a step in the wrong direction. In may sound good at first whisper, but the screams would be deafening.

Any Red Flag law will be a foot in the door for this garbage.

“Red Flag” laws attack the right of the people to keep and bear arms. Registration of firearms is another attack onthe right of the people to keep and bear arms.

I’m not a Never Trumper. But Trump has written before that he wants an “assault weapon” ban, and has said “Take the guns first” before due process. Some Trump supporters on FR, especially those from the deep Blue States, would follow him even if he ordered gun confiscation. They can’t carry guns, so they don’t see why anybody else should be able to either.

Universal background check is a hard no. I read Don jr has been counseling Trump to back off gun control. I hope he listens.

“We can’t make it harder for good, solid, law-abiding citizens to protect themselves,” he said. “We will always uphold the right to self-defense, and we will always uphold the Second Amendment.”

That statement right there is in direct conflict with red flag laws.

Fella in Philly broke 6 million gun laws so there needs to be an ongoing discussion on gun laws...
