Dafuq? How so?
You CAN’T win, President Trump and DemocRATS. If you dare to strike it down, the NRA shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine!
Trump always makes it look like he is completely willing to go to the liberal side. He needs to miff his base to make his fake move look legit.
When something bad comes out, he then uses that to say the liberal move is a bad idea, and now he can say he was completely willing to go full liberal, but this one thing broke the opportunity, so he has to do the conservative thing, because that’s he only prudent way.
