During an interview on CNN’s State of the Union, Boehner focused on what he thinks is the importance of reaching across the aisle.
The segment began with CNN’s Dana Bash claiming there have been “47 mass shootings in the United States in just over the last month.”
Bash provided no substantiation for the claim of 47 mass shootings. Instead, she just looked at Boehner and said, “Polls show that vast majorities of Americans support at least some new gun restrictions.”
She then noted that gun control was not passed after Sandy Hook when Boehner was Speaker, and asked if gun control would be a “top priority” now, were he Speaker again.
Boehner expressed hope that Republicans and Democrats will find “common ground” and affirmed it would be top priority “if” he were Speaker.

The useless GOP...at the federal level
So the mask officially comes off.
That drunk idiot needs to just shut up and play golf
Useless, drunk crybaby.
He needs to get cirrhosis of the liver.
Please, no more Boehner. We hate him.
Shut up, John. Have another martini...
Friggin’ lush...
Boring.
He, or anyone really, knows what to say to 1. Sell books or 2. Be asked to be on TV.
Groupthink. Say something interesting, crying, drunk Johnny!!
Yeah, didn’t think so.
W*F
Raising the TMTR to pay for an increase in the federal minimum wage and providing free education and healthcare to Americans that have lost their jobs thanks to illegal aliens and outsourcing to China seems like a much more important legislative agenda. The democrats have my full support in such an endeavor. Tax them until they’re dead. I will not vote in 2022 if you so this instead of passing gun control legislation. Swear to God.

He been smoking a lot of weed lately. The pot lobby must be paying better than the gun lobby ever did.
Dope peddler John Bonehead
He’s as senile as Biden.
Even Stevie Wonder can see that they are up to a massive gun control move. It is no coincidence that the shootings of the last couple months are meant to make a move on gun confiscation. “It’s for the children”... We have to do “something!” Usual suspects and usual talking points.
They have no idea how much Trump voters hate them now.
There is a tidal wave coming in 2022. Every RINO who must face a primary is going to be replaced by conservative patriots. Trump is going to lead the way by campaigning for these strong challengers.
for those that live in the fantasy world where the GOP is a conserative alternative to the democrats, wake up. They are all telling you who they really are.
Have any of them ever read constitution ? “”A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
