“I will never, ever infringe on the right of the people to keep and bear arms,” Trump said. “Never ever.”

Trump Tells N.R.A. Convention, ‘I Am Going to Come Through for You

President Donald Trump took a hammer to Republicans’ usual talking points Wednesday, suggesting authorities skirt “due process” to seize guns from people who pose a public safety risk and accusing GOP lawmakers of being too “afraid” to stand up to the National Rifle Association.

Bump stock ban via edict was found to be unlawful by the Obama Administration. Prominent firearms researcher and expert John Lott panned the NCIS fix. Special orders to take guns without warrant is an infringement.

But worst of all Trumps backsliding has opened the way for downstream Republicans to do the same as has happened in Florida and Vermont with clear Constitutional infractions.

From Trump, crickets. Hearing protection act, dead. Reciprocity, dead.

On the other hand, piss poor appointments he has down pat, biggest increase in all of the liberals spending priorities he approves, the Wall and immigration curtail, muh not so much. Some friend.
