      Trump seems to be just learning about Manchin-Toomey bill, which has been vigorously debated since 2013. Says he hadn't heard a lot about it. Suggests bill "didn't have a lot of presidential backing" even though Obama pushed it hard. Says he "likes" responsibility of pushing it

      Trump also suggested marrying the Fix NICS bill with Manchin-Toomey - a position that Democrats support but which Senate GOP leadership strongly opposes.

      He then asks if Manchin-Toomey raises the age for purchasing AR-15s, which of course it doesn't address. He tells Toomey "you're afraid of the NRA" for not including raising the age limit. .... even though the NRA furiously fought the Manchin-Toomey bill

      Trump now breaks with the House GOP/NRA. "If you add concealed/carry to this, you'll never get it passed," he tells Scalise. That was included as part of the House's Fix NICS bill

          This is Deja Vu of the immigration discussion. Trump did the same BS then declined everything presented to him. THIS IS ALL A SHOW!!!!

          Watching this is painful. Marsha Blackburn went down the hole of stupidity with movies & games. Daines wants to turn schools into prisons essentially. And now, Rutherford pulled the "good guy with gun" mantra.

          IF he gets this done he should get big credit for moving this forward. IF he back-tracks then he will lose any shred of credibility for honest deal making.
