No ... I mean that The President can’t hide behind advisers, lobbyists, and bureaucrats. He has to take responsibility for the decisions made by his underlings, in this case the BATF. Re-read post #4, to which I responded, and you will understand.

As an aside: TELLING someone what he means, rather than ASKING, is more than a bit arrogant.

Re: 4 - Eh. Using this line of reasoning, a President could slough off any responsibility by claiming an advocacy group advised him to do this or that.

President Trump directed that review be done. That was his agency. And his decision to request that review.

Trump did not order the ban of bumpstocks.

Trump took the advise from the NRA to have the atf re-evaluate bumpstocks after the las vegas shooting.

Just take the 'L' bro. Trump banned them.

Trump didn’t ban bump stocks, the NRA did. Trump didn’t pick weaselly judges, the conservative think tanks did. Trump didn’t want to nominate deep staters, McConnell made it do it. Trump didn’t etc, etc, etc....

Don't worry. We've been assured by many here that Trump has learned his lesson and next time will only listen to MAGA patriots.
