Dead center bullseye with that comment.
Trump was POTUS 4 years and never moved to take away guns. Now Joe Biden is planning on doing that for sure.
Re: 79 - see https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yxgybgEKHHI
President Trump was clear at that time on gun removal.
So sickening to see the Washington Post ANONYMOUS sources to attack a President who has NOT banned any guns. And then those who LIE and say he did. Bump stocks are not guns and the ban is pretty much meaningless and anyone familiar with guns know it.
From the Left:
Sidebar: What Has Trump Done on Guns? A Lot.
Excerpt:
President Trump hasn’t just failed to strengthen America’s gun laws in the wake of repeated mass shootings, he’s systematically gutted existing laws in ways that make kids and communities less safe:

From the right:
A Second Amendment Grade for President Trump So Far
Topics: Second Amendment
Sponsors: Federalism & Separation of Powers Practice Group
Final Assessment? More Good Than Bad.
In his first term, President Trump largely lived up to his promise to protect Americans’ Second Amendment rights. There have been a few missteps along the way, but on the whole, the Trump Administration has kept its word when it comes to our right to keep and bear arms.

The attack could have been every bit as successful by making swords out of old truck leaf springs from the junk yard, and using sledge hammer handles for the sword handles.
Like I said, we already have 4 years of history to look at. Whatever grade you give him for his first term, A, B, or whatever, it’s likely to be more of the same in a second term. Certainly better than a democrat. And I suspect a lot better than most republicans. How does Trump compare to Bush 43?
Our Revolutionary War was won by well-trained Regulars, armed with smoothbore muskets. The "Kentucky" rifle was useful for scouts and rangers, but utterly useless for the close formation warfare necessary to actually WIN in 1781.
Just not true. Bump stocks. Biden pushes for AWB, but Trump was just as bad bringing up ANY restrictions on the 2nd. If anything he should’ve done like W and pushed to remove like W did on the 94 AWB.
I honestly don’t know if Desantis would be better, but Trump was real, real horrible on this topic.
There's the YouTube video in the original post where Trump tells Feinstein that "the country just needs the right president" to get her assault weapons ban passed.
Bush 43 was a B+. Trump was a D-.
How is it meaningless?
NRA calls for federal review of bump stocks after Vegas shooting
The nation was is shock after the vegas shooting, and many on the right, were under pressure to 'do something'.
So, one of the responses was the well known, national 'gun rights organization', the nra, called for a review, and Trump took that advise
Are people 2nd guessing things, and saying Trump shouldn't have followed the nra's advice?
Then how should Trump have responded, that wouldn't have increased the attacks on the 2A, otherwise?
"A person who heard his comments."
Well, that narrows it down. The comments were heard by a person. They weren't heard by just a dog or a cat.
And we are just supposed to believe anonymous sources now?
I’m a Patron level NRA member for life. But, when they talk like this, I want a refund.
Uh..yeah.
You're an embarrassment.
Unsourced BS just like any other lib.
Why? Because RDS has shown himself to be a neophyte?
Get a life.

I’m not coming at you personally on this one, 𝘈𝘴𝘴𝘢𝘶𝘭𝘵 𝘙𝘪𝘧𝘭𝘦 is a technical term for a selective fire, small arm that fires an intermediate powered cartridge fed from a detachable box magazine with typical capacity of 30 cartridges. 𝘈𝘴𝘴𝘢𝘶𝘭𝘵 𝘞𝘦𝘢𝘱𝘰𝘯 is a nebulous political term that is used by both ignorant and knowledgeable Fudds, politicians, activists, and media talking heads to either advance antigun policy or in the case of Fudds, rest comfortably while rights are slowly being stripped away through executive fiat.
Regarding Don Jr., and Eric Trump. I haven’t heard anything in particular that counters them being pro gun.
I posted the truth about that Orange man and his desire for gun control and you all called me liars 5 years ago.I don’t wanna hear it ever again period
