I think Trump will play to the 60% and the base is left in the dust of gun control. Trump, the liberal Dem is back!
"...Trump also said some of his fellow Republicans were "petrified" of the NRA, called on lawmakers to produce a “comprehensive” gun bill, and squelched prospects for a GOP-backed concealed carry proposal as part of a broader gun package..."
No, Donald 'it's all about me' Trump has never been away, he just hoodwinked enough people to win the election and keep P T Barnum laughing his butt off somewhere. Anyone who thought Trump would be loyal to anyone or any party over himself better climb back on the turnip truck, ride a few more miles, and try and learn something before you fall off again.

Personally, I don't really expect him to stand by his words.
As soon as he got off camera, I bet Stephen Miller reamed him out for saying that. Like DACA, he says one thing at the bipartisan meeting, then turned around and screwed them all by 'changing his mind'.

That is brilliant. You put it plain and simple.....

Sounds like Miller will be gone soon, I doubt Donny lets anyone ream him out without retribution.
In the meeting today, Trump said police should have taken the shooter's guns prior to the school shooting. He told Pence that any court case would have taken a long time but at least the shooter would not have his guns. As a liberal, I wonder why conservatives and gun nuts aren't up in arms? Isn't this what they were deceivingly spouting for 8 years that Obama was going to take their guns?
Who’d of thunk that Trump wants a strong gun control bill? I’m not holding my breath but here’s hoping something of significance can be done.
Before some media phobic person comes on and says fake news...make sure you find the clip today of him, Trump talking about the gun control measures and how 'he is the President' that is going to change things.

It will all depend who attacks him the most aggressively and makes Trump think that he will 'lose' (lose popularity, approval, votes) if he adopts a specific policy.
Right now I suspect the NRA has the upper hand.
I don't believe for one minute Trump will champion gun control measures.
