I hear you, and I agree. It is a sad day that we should even have a concern that a Trump administration would even consider compromising on our rights.

In 2020 President Trump could win by a landslide, or he could lose to a democrat propped up by election fraud. A major factor in this will be the amount of backbone he shows on 2nd Amendment issues. Taking a pro 2nd Amendment stance will certainly lose the extreme leftists - but let's face it, he never had them and never will. Showing any weakness on 2nd Amendment issues will certainly cost him support on the right.

So when it comes to "gun control" he has nothing to gain by signing anything even remotely anti-2nd Amendment, and everything to lose. I believe he and his advisers are far too shrewd to have missed that.

but he'll never get them anyway. Those folk actually LIKE Bernie Sanders.

Signing on to any form of gun control is a losing proposition for President Trump. He won't gain the leftists' votes and he'll lose votes on the right.

Anyone advising him otherwise is a traitor.

President Trump: What gun control laws do you propose to REPEAL?
