Well, if he kept it up I would actually have to start letting my avatar count up. But, alas, I'm sure he will be right back at it tomorrow.
All in all it is kind of depressing when we get a tiny glimpse of the president he could have been if his narcissism hadn't gotten in the way.

Someone said on one of the cable shows that Trump had been all-in with the Democrats on one of the illegal alien issues recently, and then a week later he wasn't. So he said to wait a week before taking this as Trump's position. |
Pretty sure that is what jammer was referring to with Tuesday Trump vs. Thursday Trump.

I think Trump agrees with gun control. Like, I think that's actually a policy decision he agrees with. Even during the campaign, his speech at the NRA convention suggested as much.
And I'd also say, it's likely that Ivanka doesn't like guns..and they've measured the popularity here. Most (And by most, I mean over 90%) of Americans want some sort of restrictions. (Unfortunately for Donnie, that 10% is likely in his fanbase).
And finally, I would also think..that Donald understands what being "The President to stop the mass shootings" would mean. We have an epidemic. Gutting legislation passed, and having something this big happen under him..that would be a big deal.
And the NRA were fools to think he'd be loyal. No matter how much money he was given. Nah. Russia has more than money on Donald. That's the only reason he's been loyal there.
OF course, that all being said..Mitch, Pence, and Ryan aren't going to allow any gun control measures because they are loyal to their financial backers. And Jammer needs to not kid himself. Donald hasn't ever gotten a chance to run the government. Those three assholes are running shit, while Kelly and Maddog are taking turns babysitting..making sure he doesn't press the red nuclear button.

The irony of an NRA endorsement by someone named "Killer" is not lost on me.

Killer Mike apologizes for NRA video
Quote: |
Killer Mike said in the video he posted on social media Sunday that he supports the youth-driven gun control movement.
"I'm sorry that an interview I did about a minority, black people in this country, and gun rights was used as a weapon against you guys," he said.
"That was unfair to you and it was wrong, and it disparaged some very noble work you're doing."
The rapper said in the NRA video that he has worked with groups from both sides of the gun control issue and "tries to see a problem from the whole perspective." |

Yeah right.
