DONALD TRUMP THE OTHER DAY HAD A BIPARTISAN GET TOGETHER AT THE
WHITE HOUSE AND SAID SOME INTERESTING THINGS THAT WERE NOT
EXPECTED.
NOW, I HAD SOME PREDICTIONS ABOUT THAT WHICH WE
WILL GET TO IN A SECOND, BUT SINCE IT WAS BIPARTISAN A COUPLE
DEMOCRATIC SENATORS WERE THERE LIKE AMY KLOBUCHAR AND SHE
PROPOSED EXPANDED BACKGROUND CHECKS.
THE NRA IS AGAINST THAT.
AND FEINSTEIN HAS PROPOSED AN ASSAULT WEAPONS BAN, THE NRA IS
VERY MUCH AGAINST THAT AND TRUMP HAS NEVER SAID HE FAVORS
THAT UNTIL NOW.
WATCH THIS.
THE STATES HAVE HAD THESE BACKGROUND CHECKS, THEY HAVE A
38% LOWER DOMESTIC HOMICIDE RATE, THE SYSTEMATIC VIOLENCE,
AND FOR THOSE CASES ESPECIALLY IT MAKES A MAJOR DIFFERENCE.
IN
THIS NUMBER, FOR YOU TO KEEP WITH YOU, 6000 WOMEN IN 10 YEARS
WERE KILLED BY A PARTNER, WHETHER IT WAS A SPOUSE,
BOYFRIEND, 6000.
I THINK IT WOULD MAKE A MAJOR DIFFERENCE.
IF YOU CAN ADD THAT TO THIS BILL THAT WOULD BE GREAT.
DIANNE, IF YOU CAN ADD WHAT YOU HAVE ALSO INTO THE BILL --
JOE, ARE YOU READY?
JOE, CAN YOU ADD SOME OF THE THINGS --
IF YOU HELP.
I'LL HELP, BUT CAN YOU ADD WHAT AMY HAD?
I WILL SAY THIS,
WE WILL GET IT PASSED.
IF YOU CAN ADD DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
PARAGRAPHS, PAGES COME INTO THIS BILL, I'M ALL FOR IT.
I THINK
IT'S TERRIFIC IF YOU CAN DO IT.
THAT CAN BE DONE TOO.
EXPANDING BACKROOM CHECKS, ADDING PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN
CONVICTED OF DOMESTIC ABUSE TO PEOPLE WHO CAN'T GET GUNS,
BANNING ASSAULT WEAPONS -- YOU SEE THE DEMOCRATS GET EXCITED
AND REPUBLICANS ARE LIKE, NO!
SOMEBODY STOP HIM, SOMEBODY
TACKLE HIM.
BECAUSE HE DOESN'T KNOW ANY POLICY.
LOOK, DON'T PUT
HIM IN FRONT OF CAMERAS IF YOU ARE A REPUBLICAN, HE IS JUST
GOING TO EMBARRASS YOU.
IF YOU ASK ME IS THAT A DEAL, I'LL TAKE
EVERY ONE OF THOSE.
GREAT, DEAL.
BUT AS I TOLD YOU YESTERDAY, HE
WON'T DO IT.
WE WILL GET TO THAT IN A SECOND.
LET ME SHOW YOU A
COUPLE FUN VIDEOS, LOOK AT DEMOCRATS GETTING EXCITED WHEN
HE SAYS YES.
HERE'S KLOBUCHAR WHEN HE SAYS YES.
THAT CAN BE DONE TOO.
GREAT, KEEP GOING.
HERE IS FEINSTEIN GETTING EXCITED.
IF YOU CAN ADD THAT TO THIS BILL, THAT WOULD BE GREAT.
DIANNE, IF YOU COULD ADD WHAT YOU HAVE ALSO INTO THE BILL --
JOE, ARE YOU READY?
JOE, CAN YOU DO THAT?
DON'T GET TOO EXCITED.
BUT I LIKE THOSE PROVISIONS, I'M GLAD
THEY ARE FIGHTING FOR THOSE PROVISIONS, BUT IT AIN'T GONNA
HAPPEN BECAUSE TRUMP DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT.
BUT HERE IS MORE FROM TRUMP.
THIS IS NOT A POPULAR THING TO SAY IN TERMS OF THE NRA BUT I'M
SAYING IT ANYWAY, I JUST HAVE TO SAY IT, BUT YOU CAN'T BUY --
THINK OF IT, YOU COULD BUY HANDGUN, YOU CAN'T BUY ONE, YOU
HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL YOU'RE 21, BUT YOU CAN BUY THE KIND OF
WEAPON USED IN THE SCHOOL SHOOTING AT 18.
I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING YOU HAVE TO THINK ABOUT.
WOULD YOU SIGN RESOLUTIONS?
I TELL YOU WHAT, I WILL GIVE IT A LOT OF CONSIDERATION, A LOT
OF PEOPLE DON'T EVEN WANT TO BRING IT UP BECAUSE THEY ARE
AFRAID TO BRING IT UP.
I COULD SAY THE NRA IS OPPOSED TO IT, AND I'M A FAN OF
THE NRA, THERE'S NO BIGGER FAN, I'M A BIG FAN OF THE NRA.
THESE
ARE GREAT PEOPLE, GREAT PATRIOTS, THEY LOVE OUR COUNTRY,
BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE HAVE TO AGREE ON EVERYTHING.
I'M A BIG FAN, I'M THE BIGGEST FAN, BUT I DON'T AGREE
WITH THEM.
I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE BACKPEDAL BUT LET'S WATCH.
I THINK YOU UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF THE GUN LOBBY.
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, THE REASON I HAD LUNCH WITH THE NRA
ON SUNDAY, I CALLED THEM, I SAID YOU HAVE TO COME OVER, FELLAS,
YOU HAVE TO COME OVER, AND I AGREE THAT THEY HAVE GREAT
POWER.
THEY HAVE GREAT POWER OVER YOU PEOPLE, THEY HAVE LESS
POWER OVER ME.
WHAT DO I NEED?
SOME OF YOU PEOPLE ARE PETRIFIED OF THE NRA, YOU CAN'T
BE PETRIFIED.
THEY HAVE LESS POWER OVER YOU?
YOU CAN'T BE PETRIFIED?
WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE THE CONCLUSION.
I TOLD YOU.
BUT HOLD
FOR THAT COME IN THAT CLIP I LOVE CHRIS MURPHY, WHO IS A
DEMOCRAT WHO HAS FOUGHT REALLY HARD FOR GUN CONTROL, FROM
CONNECTICUT, GOING, LIKE, REALLY?
YOU'RE GOING TO PASS
THOSE LAWS YOU JUST SAID?
YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW MUCH THE NRA
HAS POWER OVER YOU, YOU SCHMUCK.
CHRIS MURPHY WOULD LOVE TO PASS
THOSE BILLS.
MEANWHILE CORNYN, THE DEEPLY RIGHT-WING REPUBLICAN
BOUGHT BY THE NRA, IS SITTING MORTIFIED LIKE JESUS CHRIST,
WHAT IS GOING ON?
BUT WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN ANYWHERE NEAR THE WORST
PART YET.
LISTEN TO WHAT TRUMP WILL SAY, HE WILL SAY LET'S TAKE
PEOPLE'S GUNS AWAY AND I DON'T CARE WHAT THE LAW IS.
WHAT?
IMAGINE IF OBAMA HAD SAID THIS.
THEY HAVE SO MANY CHECKS AND BALANCES THAT YOU COULD BE
MENTALLY ILL AND IT TAKES YOU SIX MONTHS BEFORE YOU CAN
PROHIBIT IT.
SO WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING VERY DECISIVE.
NUMBER
ONE, YOU CAN TAKE THE GUNS AWAY IMMEDIATELY FROM PEOPLE THAT YOU
CAN JUDGE EASILY OR MENTALLY ILL.
THEY DIDN'T TAKE ANY GUNS AWAY, THAT COULD'VE BEEN
POLICING.
THEY SHOULD HAVE TAKEN THEM AWAY ANYWAY WHETHER THEY
HAD THE RIGHT OR NOT.
THE COURT OBTAINED AN ORDER AND COLLECTED NOT ONLY THE
FIREARMS BUT ANY WEAPONS IN THE POSSESSION --
OR TAKE THE FIREARMS FIRST AND THEN GO TO COURT.
BECAUSE
THAT'S ANOTHER SYSTEM, BECAUSE A LOT OF TIMES BUT THE TIME YOU GO
TO COURT TO TAKE SO LONG TO GO TO COURT, TO GET THE DUE PROCESS
PROCEDURES -- I LIKE TAKING THE GUNS EARLY.
LIKE IN THIS CRAZY
MAN'S CASE THAT JUST TOOK PLACE IN FLORIDA, HE HAD A LOT OF
FIREARMS, THEY SAW EVERYTHING, TO GO TO COURT WOULD'VE TAKEN A
LONG TIME SO YOU COULD DO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING BUT TAKE THE GUNS
FIRST, GO THROUGH DUE PROCESS SECOND.
REALLY?
DEAL.
THE SENATORS ARE LOOKING AROUND STUNNED.
WHAT
IS HE SAYING?
HE SAYS IN THE BEGINNING TAKE THE GUNS AWAY
FIRST, AND THEN PENCE JUMPS IN, LIKE, WHAT HE MEANT IS OF COURSE
YOU GET A COURT ORDER AND THEN YOU COULD HAVE THE LEGAL RIGHT
TO TAKE THE GUN AWAY UNDER VERY LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES.
TRUMP
COMES IN, MIKE, YOU MISHEARD ME, JUST TAKE THE GUNS FIRST AND DUE
PROCESS SECOND.
IF OBAMA HAD SAID THAT, [EXPLODING SOUND].
EVERY RIGHT-WINGER WOULD HAVE BEEN LIKE I KNEW IT, HE'S COMING
FOR GUNS.
WELL, YOUR DADDY JUST SAID IT, DONALD TRUMP SAID IT.
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?
DON'T WORRY, YOU DON'T HAVE
TO DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THE NRA WILL YELL AT HIM AND OTHER FAN
BOYS WILL YELL AT HIM UNTIL TRUMP BUCKLES, BECAUSE OF COURSE
HE'S A COWARD AND HE NEVER MEANT ANY OF IT.
BUT LET'S SHOW YOU
SOME OF THE YELLING, DANA LOESCH, NRA SPOKESPERSON, SAID
WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU, MARIA BARTOROMO IS YELLING AT
KELLYANNE CONWAY, LET'S WATCH.
IS THE PRESIDENT IGNORING THE CONSTITUTION AND TAKING PROPERTY
BEFORE DUE PROCESS?
WILL THE PRESIDENT CLARIFY THAT HE IN
FACT IS NOT GOING TO IGNORE THE CONSTITUTION AND TAKE SOMEONE'S
PROPERTY BEFORE DUE PROCESS?
I ALMOST FEEL LIKE YESTERDAY WAS
TRYING SO HARD TO APPEAR THAT HE'S WILLING, HE WILL BE IN THE
MIDDLE-OF-THE-ROAD, HE'S WILLING TO MAKE CHANGES TO ANSWER THE
UPSET OVER THESE SCHOOL SHOOTINGS, BUT DOESN'T HE HAVE
TO BE CAREFUL NOT TO STEP ON DUE PROCESS?
THIS IS AMERICA, THE
CONSTITUTION, AND WHAT HE SAID, I ALMOST FEEL LIKE MAYBE WAS
FOR THE CAMERAS.
YOU ARE SAYING HE DIDN'T MEAN THAT.
I DIDN'T SAY THAT, MARIA.
ABOUT BLOWING OFF TO PROCESS.
THEY ARE LIKE, REALLY?
OF COURSE NOT REALLY.
YESTERDAY WE
HAD THE QUOTES BUT WE DIDN'T HAVE THE VIDEO, BASED ON THE
QUOTES HE WAS MY PREDICTION ON YESTERDAY'S SHOW.
EVEN REPUBLICANS is AN IDIOT AND DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE'S
SAYING, HE'S INCREDIBLY UNSTABLE.
REPUBLICANS OR
RIGHT-WINGERS KNOW HE'S NOT A VERY STABLE GENIUS, THEY KNOW
HE'S A MORON.
YOU KNOW HE BLURTED THAT OUT AND WILL WALK
IT BACK TOMORROW OR LATER TODAY.
HE WILL WALK THIS BACK AND SAY
SORRY, BUT HE WON'T DO IT, HE WILL HAVE AN AIDE DO AN OFFICIAL
STATEMENT, WE BELIEVE IN DUE PROCESS, THE AMERICAN JUSTICE
SYSTEM, AND THE NRA IS AWESOME AND PLEASE SEND THE CHECK TO
1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE.
LET'S SEE IF THAT HAPPENS.
THE PRESIDENT RESPECTS THE CONSTITUTION, INCLUDING THE
SECOND AMENDMENT, AND THE 5 MILLION OR SO MEMBERS OF THE NRA
WHO ARE LAW-ABIDING, PEACEFUL GUN OWNERS.
THE POINT HERE,
MARIA, IS SCHOOL SAFETY.
ANYONE WHO THINKS -- WHO CAME TO THE
WHITE HOUSE AND THINKS THE SESSION WAS ABOUT GUN GRABBING
OR GUN CONTROL IS MISTAKEN AND THEY KNOW IT.
BACKPEDAL, BACKPEDAL.
SENDING AN AIDE OUT TO WALK BACK TO
COMMENTS, WE AREN'T GOING TO GRAB YOUR GUNS.
BUT THAT WASN'T
ENOUGH, THEN WE HAVE TO HEAR FROM THE MAN HIMSELF, TRUMP
TWEETS OUT THIS MORNING --
IN OTHER WORDS, I'M SO SORRY I THINK I RESPECT THE SECOND
AMENDMENT, I DIDN'T MEAN IT.
WHAT HAPPENED, TOUGH GUY?
I
THOUGHT YOU WEREN'T AFRAID OF THE NRA.
WHY DON'T WE PASS THE
BAN ON ASSAULT WEAPONS YOU SAID YOU WERE IN FAVOR OF YESTERDAY?
YOU AREN'T GOING TO COME ARE YOU?
YOU'RE GOING TO SEND AN
AIDE TO WALK IT BACK JUST LIKE I SAID.
COWARD.
