No second term for him. He doesn't know what a poison pill the AWB was for the Dems.

And that was back when fewer people bought and owned ARs! Today it seems like that’s 80% of what gun stores sell and what 50% of people are using at the range.

Hmm. Hopefully selling off all of my extra lower receivers after Hillary lost doesn’t come back to bite me.

While I hope this is just part of the negotiation, I fear this might be worse than I expected.

Trump is a donkey. Hopefully the republicans have a plan for dealing with him when he really goes rogue.

Comments on link have more faith in Trump than St. Peter had in Christ at 3PM on Good Friday.

An AWB stuck in a bill rife with emotion is a head scratcher unless he wants to make sure it passes... otherwise, it's only going to result in a headline like, "Republicans Vote To Keep Kids Unsafe!"

It's like putting a pill in a chunk of liver to give to a dog. You know the pill won't go down the hatch without the liver.

He's either a complete master of strategy in a way that has not been seen in American politics in decades, or we're screwed.

Trump is great at pissing people off and getting things done, so clearly there is nothing to worry about.

Zing!!!

Adding a ban to the school safety bill is a poison pill for either getting the school bill defeated (which will suck for Rs in mid-terms) or for undermining Trump's base.

This is a serious problem. It doesn't matter if it's a Democrat or Republican as they're all voting the same. Especially at a time of "emotion" when they vote on something this would not surprise me at all to see it get passed.

So President Trump wants gun control but not the concealed carry reciprocity?

Well, on the upside, Trump is encouraging me in my flirtation to just go ahead and join the Constitution Party and let my pointless vote at least be true to my values, instead of this compromising crap.

I hope he pulls one of his classic moves and does the right thing. And pisses off the left. That never gets old.

That's two minutes of my life I'll never get back....

I'm not sure what to make of the article other than Joelle Grande seems pretty worked up. Is that a good thing for "us"?

I hope he doesn't sign anything and they quit the congress and senate in protest. They just throw their hands up and quit.
