Banning Bump Stocks: First Step?

| Everywhere you look, the media trashes Trump. | |
| They call him names, cite bizarre statements, and harp about his Russia collusion. | |
| But why focus on sticks and stones, sudden firings, criminal investigations, and bizarre statements that have world leaders scratching their heads, when there's some real scores to settle? | |
| Why does the media ignore Trump's criminal actions in Syria? | |
| Well, that's good for Israel, and the Jewish-owned mainstream media has no beef about that. | |
| There's about as much conflict of interest in the media as there is in Congress these days. | |
| And what about the rider in Trump's tax plan that pushes through oil drilling in the Arctic? | |
| Where is the outrage? | |
| Hastily wrecking vast expanses in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge should be a huge cause for alarm. | |
| These are genuine gripes against Trump, not his hair, and certainly not his alleged Russia collusion. | |
| How about Trump's flip-flop on gun control? | |
| Don't worry about bump stock. | |
| We're getting rid of it. I mean, you don't have to complicate the bill by adding another two paragraphs. | |
| We're getting rid of it. I'll do that myself. | |
| With a little help from Dianne Feinstein, whose mission creep will strip the goys of all their guns. | |
| Trump once blasted opponents of gun rights, like Feinstein, who used scary-sounding words like assault rifles and military-style weapons. | |
| But lately, Trump tweeted, quote, We will ban all devices that turn legal weapons into illegal machine guns, unquote. | |
| Looks like Trump's now using scary-sounding words himself. | |
| Yet the only thing scarier is when Trump and Feinstein, who is the antithesis of Trump, actually agree, especially when it comes to disarming Americans. | |
| So Senator Murphy and I and 46 Senate colleagues on a bipartisan basis have what we think is a start. | |
| It's not the end-all be-all. | |
| There's other things that people want to add to it. | |
| You talked about the bump stock issue that Senator Feinstein I know cares passionately about. | |
| And I'm going to write that out. | |
| Because we can do that with an executive order. | |
| America first or Feinstein first? | |
| Banning bump stocks is only a first start, too. | |
| Bump fire can actually be achieved without even using a bump stock. | |
| So, what would Trump be banning? | |
| Too many bullets? | |
| Will he install a timer on every trigger, limiting how quickly a gun can be fired? | |
| Criminals would love that one. | |
| Will Trump ban the physics of a gun? | |
| We'll have to ban all guns for that, and that's exactly what Feinstein and Tribe want. | |
| The downshot is that banning bump stock sets a broad and dangerous precedent that could be used to eradicate the Second Amendment completely. | |
| Mission creep is the bullet in Trump and Feinstein's anti-gun push. | |
| The media only pretends to hate Trump. | |
| Why else do they sweep real grievances under the rug? | |
