Make a strong statement against Foreeign interference in our elections by a hostile nation?
This one makes me chuckle. We interfere ALL THE TIME in foreign elections. Heck, we've taken it a lot further than that.
Russia hiring a small team of bloggers is a freakin' joke compared to what we do. Not really sure it's in our interests to draw international attention to this topic.
Call for Congress to study the mass shooting problem and recommend common-sense gun control? Sign a bipartisan sanction bill, when he's owned by Putin? Make a strong statement against Foreeign interference in our elections by a hostile nation?
Define common sense gun control.
Sanctions about what?
Foreign interference? Hard to make a strong statement when the US does the same thing, all the time, and we even use force to do it.
How about protect Americans from more right-wing deranged shooters??
At the very least, how about just tell his supporters to stop committing violence????????
Is that so hard to do?
.
First off, the police aren't there to protect you (although many have given their lives to) , per a Supreme Court ruling. So what do you expect Trump to do ? There are already some 20,000 firearms related, are more going to help ?
As far as the jab towards Trump supporters, grow up and act like an adult. And I'm sure you don't want to see the facts that many of the recent attacks were not Trump supporters or Republicans.

Which of the existing 20,000+ gun regulations are NOT 'common sense'? Do you even have the slightest clue what the current laws are? My guess is no.
However, the $400 million dollar transfer was actually an openly announced one, paid in settlement of a nearly 40-year dispute between Iran and the United States — a settlement that likely saved the United States several billion dollars.
Back in late 1979, after Iranian revolutionaries took 52 Americans hostage at the US Embassy in Tehran, the United States severed diplomatic relations with Iran and froze Iranian assets in America. Among those frozen assets was a $400 million delivery of fighter jets from the U.S. that Iran’s previous government had already paid for.
Although the American hostages were finally released a year later, issues such as the frozen Iranian assets (including that $400 million) were not settled at that time. Instead, an international court based in the Hague, the Iran–United States Claims Tribunal was established to deal with such legal claims. The tribunal process dragged on for years and years without a ruling on the $400 million being issued, and finally, when arbitration process was apparently about to wind up (quite possibly not in American’s favor), the U.S. agreed to pay Iran back the $400 million principal along with $1.3 billion in interest. If the issue had gone to the tribunal for a decision, as was expected, the U.S. could have been on the hook for the full $10 billion in compensation Iran was seeking.
You must be speaking about Obama, all the Russianinterference occurred under his watch. Glad we finally have a President that will do something about it.
