And by "this Trump" I mean "Presidential Trump"

It's actually a pretty good read.. it's a transcript.

Yeah, I'm sure all the socialist loons are going to flock to Trump if he signs gun control.

The minute he signed gun control you'd use it to bludgeon his supporters over the head before the ink is dry.

If your "news" wasn't such trash he wouldn't need to tweet. He might still do it, but he wouldn't need to.

Missing the point.

That's a transcript.. it just shows who Presidential Trump is and not who he is portrayed to be. I can't explain twitter Trump except that he likes to salt mine

Signing any gun control legislation would take him down, which is why the left is pushing this so hard....

If only Trump would do shite like lie about WMD's and start a war, get a BJ in the oval office and run guns to Mexican drug cartels he'd be viewed as more presidential.

blaming dems for bipartisan measures? some excerpts:


President Trump
Everybody has their own bill. If we could have one terrific bill that everybody — started by the people around this take. Special people. These are the people that seem to be most interested, very interested in this problem. It’s a big problem. So, with that, I think I would like to start. Maybe you can ask John, you can start off and we’ll go back and forth. We’ll leave the media for a while and they can leave us with some thought. There’s something that can be done.

There’s no reason for this. I really believe that those people, it’s idealistic, wonderful, a beautiful thing. If you think that somebody is going to be able to walk into a school, if they feel that they’re not going to have bullets coming at them from the other direction, you’re never going to solve the problem. I feel that. I feel that. But I’m certainly open to suggestions. So, John, why don’t you start? You’ve put in your Fix NICS. Let’s see how it is and we’ll go ahead.

Sen. John Cornyn
Thank you, Mr. President.

Thank you for getting us together and expressing your sincere concern about this and trying to get us to a solution. And going home empty handed is unacceptable. It’s hard to get people together on a bipartisan basis. Sutherland Springs, we lost 26 people when a guy, convicted felon, convicted of domestic violence, less than honorable discharge from the military, none of which was uploaded into the background check system maintained by the FBI. That’s only as good as the data put into it.

So 46 Senate colleagues on the bipartisan basis have what we think is a start. It’s not the end all be all. Other things that people want to add to it. We talked about the bump stock issue that I know Sen. Feinstein cares passionately about.

President Trump
I’m going to essentially write that out. We can do that with an executive order. I’m essentially going to write it out. You won’t have to worry about bump stock. Shortly, that will be gone. We can focus on other things. Frankly, I don’t know that it would be good to have it be in this bill. We’ll have that done. They’re working on it quickly. Go ahead.

Sen. John Cornyn
We need to get started on things only we could do, this background check system. People have other ideas, they ought to offer those ideas. I’m not sure all of them will pass but in the past we’ve acquiesced to failure and have not done things that we know were within our power to accomplish, like the Fix NICS Bill. So I would like to recommend to you and to my colleagues that we get that done and build on it. We don’t stop there. We build on it. None of us want to look these families in the face in the wake of another mass shooting and say we failed to do everything within our power to stop it.

President Trump
And, John, Fix NICS has some really good things in it. It would be nice if we could add everything on to it and maybe change the title, all right? The U.S. Background check bill or whatever. Your bill is really good and really important, having to do with a certain aspect. Maybe we could make it much more comprehensive and have one bill instead of 15 different bills and nobody knows what’s happening.

If we can get 60 votes for it, Mr. President, I’m all for it.

President Trump
I think you can. I think this is one of the things you can actually get the 60 votes and maybe easily. Dianne, do you have something?

...

President Trump
We have a case where can you buy a handgun at 21. This isn’t a popular thing to say in terms of the NRA but I’m going to say it anyway.

I just have to say it. You can’t buy — think of it. You can buy a handgun. You can’t buy one. You have to wait until you’re 21. You can buy the kind of weapon used in the school shooting at 18. I think it’s something you have to think about.

Sen. Pat Toomey

Would you sign that?

President Trump
I’ll tell you what, I’m going to give it a lot of consideration. And I’m the one bringing it up. People aren’t bringing it up because they’re afraid to bring it up. You can’t buy a handgun at 18, 19 or 20. You have to wait until you’re 21. You could buy the weapon used in this horrible shooting at 18. You are going to decide, the people in this room pretty much, are going to decide. I would give very serious thought to it

Twitter Trump is ESSENTIAL to counter the FAKE NEWS of the DNC/MSM Political Complex. It’s how he introduces subjects to the “national discussion” past the MSM censorship. And it outs the leftists bias of the journalistic hacks for all to see.

Or to put it plainly, without Twitter Trump, there would be no President Trump!

Twitter Trump also makes Trump “one of us” and a relatable human.

I love me some Twitter Trump daily! Live it - love it!

It’s fitting a liberal would believe the President would be more popular if he would just take rights away from law abiding citizens.

One of the reasons he was elected is because he isn’t “presidential” aka politically correct.

Only a tard accepts “constructive criticism” advice from their enemies, especially while they are winning!
