Thanks for posting this. Very informative. Trump was and is pro 2nd amendment. He danced around the issue a bit, playing New York politics, but he said what needed to be said. I think most anti-Trumpers will just look at this headline about the “brilliant” Bloomberg and dismiss it out of hand.
Depends on when was is..
Dems and Reps are both wrong on guns:
"Its often argued that the American murder rate is high because guns are more available here than in other countries. Democrats want to confiscate all guns, which is a dumb idea because only the law-abiding citizens would turn in their guns and the bad guys would be the only ones left armed. The Republicans walk the NRA line and refuse even limited restrictions."

For assault weapon ban, waiting period, & background check:
"I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun. With todays Internet technology we should be able to tell within 72-hours if a potential gun owner has a record."
