re: What are the odds that Trump folds on "assault rifles"?

Would be suicide for his reelection. Those on the left will not all of a sudden switch to being Trump voters. It would just discourage those on the right from voting.

If he didnt have to worry about re-election I think he would try to get a ban passed, but it would ultimately get overturned one day by the supreme court if they stay true to the logic of the Heller opinion.
