Anyone listening to the gun discussion from the White House?

[madamesilverspurs]

No presidents have tried to do anything???

Why hasn't congress dealt with mental health gun issues???

Yeah, let's be turning schools into prisons . . . . . .

1. Is the Senator from California sitting there and not rebutting these lies?

[EffieBlack]

16. There are a couple dozen senators at the table, including a number of Dems

Why are you singling her out?

And she did challenge him.

That said, this isn't the place to get into a spitting contest with Trump. He's running his mouth, making commitments and promising the moon and sun, making it much harder for him to walk away from legislation on guns like he did with DACA.

They're smart to let him keep talking.

[jrthin]

18. I did not watch this. I responded to the post because

the thread below this mentioned that she was sitting there, and mentioned no one else.

2. He's lying like a rug. Obama didn't try to do anything after Newtown? lying bastard.

and this is the guy they rescinded Obama's mental illness / gun initiative

then he brings up mental illness every change he gets...

[madamesilverspurs]

4. Wish somebody in that room

would bring that up!

6. Also why did his budget cut $110B/yr

from Medicaid. Medicaid is the largest payee for mental health services.

3. Yes I wish they had the name of the person

speaking. Guess nobody told him about the teacher with a gun barricaded in a classroom today in Georgia.

5. Judging by my Twitter feed, he seems like an idiot while pissing off the left and the right.

7. Amy Klobuchar's

body language says it all...

She just smirked to someone in the group... after trump said concealed carry limits will never work

[FM123]

8. I turned it on and just about fainted when trumpy accidentally told the truth!

The repug senator from PA Toomey said he hadn't really addressed changing the gun age to 21 and Trumpy smirked at him "you know why? That's because you're afraid of the NRA!"
Whoaaa I can't believe that orange piece of garbage said that aloud, of course he'll deny it tomorrow.

[Luciferous]

9. I was screaming at the TV when he said that.

[TreasonousBastard]

10. Had to turn it of-- some good points made, and some not so good points, but...

Cheeto just seemed not to get it at all.

(paraphrased)

"You have to take the lead as President"

"Oh. OK."

Tells-- arms folded means he really doesn't want to hear it and the nodding means "I'll agree to anything and forget about it by dinner time."

[Angry Dragon]

11. Hi, my name is Donald Trump and only I can save you from guns!!

[Atticus]

12. Just had to mute it. Wanted to tell Trump and Blackburn to get a room. nt

[SamKnause]

13. Yes, I force myself to watch.

I can not be informed if I don't endure the torture of watching EVIL LYING REPUBLICANS.

I watch the lies come straight from their own mouths.

[oasis]

14. "It's the NRA stupid". That's what someone should have told Trump.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

15. I'm assuming there's a lot of arm folding and nodding from the Madman.

And not a whole lot else.

[hexola]

17. That was some fucked up shit

Trump kept going on and on about making it one bill?!

What the hell was that about...? Like that was some stroke of genius...?

Then - like 10 seconds later he's talking about bump stocks being a separate EO?

What a nut!

[ooky]

19. He used bump stocks to glorify himself

He stopped Cornyn in mid sentence when he was talking about bump stocks, interrupting him to tell him not to worry about bump stocks, because HE was going to handle bump stocks himself with executive decree, practically beating his chest while he said it.

[EffieBlack]

20. My favorite part

Toomey: "Our bill had the support of 54 senators, but we couldn't get it passed"

Trump: "That's because Obama didn't support it."

Toomey: "President Obama actually did support the bill."

Trump: "Well, there's your problem."

What an idiot
