“I am a single issue voter on two issues: abortion and the second amendment. You fail on either and you fail completely.”
So you’re one of those people who would throw the baby out with the bathwater, because our President has to try and find a way to move forward on any number of issues. There is a long list of radical RATS lining up to run against him in 2020. Any one of them would be your worst nightmare vis a vis the Second Amendment.
From what I have observed, Trump very seldom acts on the first position he takes. I just love the way he’s put both the RATs and the RINOs in a box on Immigration. Now you have La Raza fighting amongst themselves over Trump’s “offer” on DACA.

Nothing is making him move forward on gun control at all.

That is 100% accurate and, having read the memo, it’s starting to look like that. It’s starting to have the hallmarks of one his political judo throws. We will see if it works out. If it doesn’t, however, he owns the consequences.
If you read the memo, it’s basically “Hey all you BATFE guys, that thing you’ve been doing with the review on bump stocks that your started in December, you guys just keep doing that thing like you were going to all along while I say some nice flowery stuff on TV.” It’s literally a nothing burger in and of itself; but it also emboldens the left. Dangerous strategy unless he has a huge hammer up his sleeve, and I don’t see how he could hammer dems on this.
Then again, I didn’t see how he could get them twisted into such knots over DACA either, but he really wore their hides on that one. So bad, in fact, the media had to make up more Russia conspiracy theories to get the heat off of them.
So yeah, if that’s what’s going on, good on DJT. If not...like I said. He owns the consequences.
