Platitudes thats all Trump offered to gun owners. Not one word on Red Flag laws. He is skirting the issue because he knows how unpopular it is. If he starts looking at knee jerk polling data and goes left with Red Flag laws he is done. Yea, I know 3D chess. That is a load of fertilizer. He says he will protect our 2nd Amendment rights, but he will spread the same due process fertilizer Lindsay has spewed recently.
“Not one word on Red Flag laws. He is skirting the issue because he knows how unpopular it is.”
I got the same feeling. Was encouraged when he started on the gun issues, then it fizzled. I wonder if there’s an Ivanka vs Don, Jr. thing going on behind the scenes.
“we are working on it and the mentally ill should not have guns”. That could be both bad or good depending on how it is played.
Then he went on to say that we need to build mental institutions again. That too could be both bad or good how it is played.
The most important thing to worry about is the next guy who comes on watch after his watch is over. What would he be enabling as a precursor.
