I'm inclined to believe that Trump is playing this the way he played the very public DACA meeting .Support both sides, give the Dems the impression he'll sign something they want .Have the negotiations fall apart, have him look good and the Dems look like idiots. Or have him give a small concession like bump stocks in order to get the teachers armed or some other offensive capability. In other words actually solve the problem
Let's see what passes. The optics of this are pretty bad but with Trump you never know - could very well be trolling the Dems. Either way I'd prefer it if he told Feinswine to go color.
I just heard on the radio he won’t attach national reciprocity to any bill. f*** that guy.
We should be pushing for more mental health protections, a change in age for being an adult- not just a change in rifle purchases that won't matter, and I hate to say it but access to NICS for private sales.

Trump was elected because he was breaking from traditional politicians who trip over their own feet playing politics. He was elected because people wanted solutions and you need to think outside the box to do that which doesn’t happen often in DC.
Maintaining our rights and providing real safety all around while at the same time passing tax reform, daca, wall, improving economy, reducing debt is not an easy task. Let’s not forget he is a businessman trying to offer solutions and he asking for support from people who are politicians with a specific party agenda subject to external lobbying groups.
Can't begrudge Trump too harshly on this one, as gun owners we are only as good as the next mass shooting and we knew a day of reckoning would eventually be at hand. We are still better off than with Hillary in the white house, and if we are going to change hearts and minds we need an attitude adjustment, because "Muh Gunz! And "Melon Labia" isn't going to get us far.

"I think that maybe that bill will someday pass but it should pass as a separate” bill, Trump replied to Scalise.
"If you're going to put concealed carry between states into this bill, we're talking about a whole new ballgame. And you know I’m with you but let it be a separate bill,” he continued.
“You'll never get this passed if you add concealed carry to this, you’ll never get it passed.”
This bill was DOA long before this latest shooting. Congress never had the balls to pass any sort of national reciprocity.
IMO that's a good thing. national reciprocity would mean a national database of licensed/permitted gun owners. And possibly lead to things like REQUIRING a license regardless of what state you are living in.
He plays all the politicians like a fiddle; he brakes the strings when it comes to demorats. Don’t jump to conclusions already, just watch it play out.
