    Trump says today that he’s not going to wait for Congress and “I’m writing up” additional regulations on bump stocks. After Las Vegas shooting, NRA signaled openness to additional ATF regs on bump stocks - but resisted congressional action

        @SenFeinstein - Save the nation from @realDonaldTrump writing up something; hand him your fully written legislation to ban bump stocks that you’ve had ready since the day after Las Vegas massacre.

        Bump sticks are nothing but a red herring. Does not address the real issue.

        We should take all the incremental progress we can get while we wait for assault weapons to eventually be banned.

        Here's a brief video of an AR-15 being shot 1), without a bump stock, and then 2), with a bump stock. This is why both the AR-15 and bump stocks need to be illegal. (Credit: @ZacksJerryRig, and thank you). pic.twitter.com/7UnlkhwPXq

        They signaled openness to administrative action because they know administrative action wouldn't withstand APA scrutiny. ATF CANNOT under their current authority ban bump stocks. Lawyers have checked. It's why Obama didn't do it.

        And ATF on at least two occasions stated it did not have authority to regulate such devices absent Congressional authorization

        ATF already indicated under Obama that it lacks authority to ban bump stocks without Congressional action. And of course we should all *completely* believe that Trump is personally writing up new regulations.

        Are you not aware that the ATF does NOT have the power to regulate bump stocks? Might you not mention this? Doesn't it mean that 1) he doesn't know what he's talking about, or 2) he's dissembling, pretending to do something when he knows he won't in the end?

        Was this the issue @realDonaldTrump and the NRA discussed over lunch this past weekend? Did NRA agree that Trump could take action, but not Congress?

        If he signs an EO, it will be fun to watch the NRA take him to court.
