    Rep. Eric Swalwell Retweeted POLITICO

    Shocking. @realDonaldTrump doesn’t support background checks. Makes sense, tho. When my dog’s owners both say to not do something, that usually works. Russia funds the @NRA and helps Trump. @nra funds Trump. Trump ain’t defying either. #EnoughIsEnoughhttps://twitter.com/politico/status/1163458104874414082 …

    It seems like Trump is backing away from background checks, and is settling into the old GOP position of building up mental health protections. Just like we said, the president has trouble holding a position for more than a few days. More in Playbook: https://politico.pro/31Pzlue

        I've been having an interesting "discussion" about 2A and how the Founders meant for it to be their way of establishing the Armed Forces, specifically to put down insurrections and invasions, quite to the contrary of modern belief.https://twitter.com/Astartiel/status/1163760100143783938?s=19 …

        I've been saying the same damn thing for years. Our "well-regulated militia" aka The Armed Forces will & should keep and bear arms. Every yahoo with a weapon isn't obeying 2A. This Federalist 29 paper by Alexander Hamilton should be linked as well. https://www.congress.gov/resources/display/content/The+Federalist+Papers#TheFederalistPapers-29 …

        Moreover, the NRA seems like a terrorist organization, holding the USA at literal gunpoint, in order to stay in power & subvert the meaning of the 2nd Amendment for personal defense against fellow citizens and the government for which they would become insurrectionists against.

        And THAT is why Trump continues to refuse to do anything about gun violence. If he offends the NRA, he'll be offending Russia, too. The flow of dark money from Russia, through the NRA, to Donald Trump is why he recently flip-flopped again on universal background checks.

        That was just as quick a fold as usual for Trump and the GOP, no? What’s it called when a President and Senate Majority Leader turn a blind eye to Americans being massacred?

        I need my FOID card and every purchase requires a waiting period and background check.
