But the Republicans steadfastly refused to even have a debate on passing such a law.

In other words, Obama did nothing to actually stop mass shootings even when he had a Democrat majority in Congress.

And we're left to make excuses for his lack of action and incompetence on this issue.

I don't remember Obama needing other world leaders to tell him how to do his job.

And Trump doesn't need other world leaders to tell him how to do his job. Traumatized children are pretty much the LAST people Trump or any other leader should listen to. If Denmark's PM seriously believes public policy should be based on the opinions of freshly traumatized teenagers, he is, quite literally, a blithering idiot.

How long did Obama have a majority in Congress? During that time, were we in the middle of shootings?

The truth….then….is this: Democrats had “total control” of the House of Representatives from 2009-2011, 2 full years. Democrats, and therefore, Obama, had “total control” of the Senate from September 24, 2009 until February 4, 2010. A grand total of 4 months.

Did President Obama have “total control” of Congress? Yes, for 4 entire months. And it was during that very small time window that Obamacare was passed in the Senate with 60 all-Democratic votes.

There were 14 mass shootings under Obama. First one being in 2009. But it wasn't until Sandy Hook happened that Obama started really vocally making his "call" for some stricter gun control laws. That was 2012. At that point, it was up to Congress, and not one that was run by a fully controlled Democratic congress. In 2013, after the Washington Navy Yard shooting, he once again made pleas to Congress to pass stricter laws.

So Obama really couldn't do anything.

Now on to Trump. He can plead and he can beg. It will be up to THIS congress to do something meaningful.

Did any other world leader tell Obama such thing? And, what did Obama do after Sandy Hook? After all the other mass shootings that happened under him?
