That his plan to end school shootings was to arm the local police with military surplus.

So our little children can go to school and feel safe.

Walking among soldiers patrolling the school grounds and buildings carrying ominous looking guns .... and tanks surrounding the school buildings. Trump has wet dreams about making us into a military state.

There is not and never has been anything 45 can do to "help out" law enforcement in any state, least of all Florida. He can pretend that he is doing something, but that is it.

Thoughts and prayers are useless. If people don't want to see an endless repeat of this uniquely American horror story, a good first step would be to stop voting for people in the pocket of the NRA and gun manufacturers.

39. Millions of dollars to elect trump and attack HRC
Wed Feb 14, 2018, 10:53 PM
Feb 2018

The National Rifle Association spent tens of millions of dollars backing Trump's presidential bid in 2016. The NRA endorsed Trump in May 2016. And the NRA disclosed it spent at least $30 million on Trump's behalf and attacking Hillary Clinton. That level of support is unprecedented – more than twice what the NRA disclosed it spent on Mitt Romney's 2012 presidential run.

40. payback ....from 4/17: Trump to NRA: Eight-Year Assault on Gun Rights Is Over
Wed Feb 14, 2018, 10:58 PM
Feb 2018
President Donald Trump promised guns rights advocates gathered in Atlanta on Friday that he'd come through for them as they did for him during the 2016 campaign.

"The eight-year assault on your Second Amendment freedoms has come to a crashing end,” Trump told the members of the National Rifle Association, assuring them that they now "have a true friend and champion in the White House."

"I will never, ever infringe on the right of the people to keep and bear arms," Trump said. "Never ever."
He is the first sitting president since Ronald Reagan to speak to the NRA.

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer called the speech to the NRA's leadership forum, which comes on the 99th day of Trump's presidency, a "good way to end an incredible week."
