During an interview on CNN’s State of the Union, Boehner focused on what he thinks is the importance of reaching across the aisle.
The segment began with CNN’s Dana Bash claiming there have been “47 mass shootings in the United States in just over the last month.”
Bash provided no substantiation for the claim of 47 mass shootings. Instead, she just looked at Boehner and said, “Polls show that vast majorities of Americans support at least some new gun restrictions.”
She then noted that gun control was not passed after Sandy Hook when Boehner was Speaker, and asked if gun control would be a “top priority” now, were he Speaker again.
Boehner expressed hope that Republicans and Democrats will find “common ground” and affirmed it would be top priority “if” he were Speaker.

Put more lipstick on that pig and see if it will fly.
There is a reason he is not still speaker. Let us hope the people remember why he is not still speaker.
Yet they still believe things have “returned to normal”.
Hamilton said “You won’t need the 2nd Amendment until they try to take it away from you”
I think that is also the signal to Concord Green their asses
The guy was a hundred years old 30 years ago. Do these people never die?
Fortunately he’s just another drunk.
As always the leftists overplay their hand, pushing this has been’s comments, the media gives away their game.
Boehner has gone FULL WHITE TRASH!
Nobody in the known universe gives a s**t about what Boehner thinks!!!
Thank God he’s not!
Boehner, the original Bad Orange Man.

Anyone going to give up driving?
John Bonehead, you aren’t speaker and you will never be. Oh, wait, you can be speaker of Congressdrunks of America! Speaker of the House you and Ryan were worse than Nancy Pelosi, and she isn’t nothing to write home about...
There, fixed it.
People are not killed "by" guns. People are killed with guns.
Don't transfer volition to the guns.
What a POS!!!!!!!
The enemy within!!!!!!!
It’s been 246 years...
We need to take over the Republican Party and toss out RINOs and anti-Americans and replace those jerks with America First patriots. 2022 is going to be the fight by both parties...Globalist RINOs against Patriots on the Conservative side and Moderate-Liberal against Socialist Democrat (Marxist/Communist) on the kooky left side...
Why not join the Republican Committee? You can help remove RINOs, but you need to get busy. I mean, you want other people to fight RINOs. A third party will doom America...
Liberals want us to give up driving...but I’ll give up my cars like I’ll give up my guns...One at a time (bullets and I’d run them over with my cars.)
As if we needed more evidence that Boner was exactly the kind of RINO that needs to be drummed out of the party....
