Mitch McConnell Will Stop Anything Meaningful From Happening On Guns

Sen. Brown laid the problem at the feet of Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump. The president won’t support doing anything about the ease of obtaining guns, and McConnell is saying that he won’t support any legislation unless Trump signs off on it. Majority Leader McConnell is exploring legislation to regulate violence in video games, but he is not going to do anything about guns. Republicans blocked action after kindergartners and first graders were murdered at Sandy Hook Elementary. The Parkland shooting didn’t phase them. Shootings at places of worship in South Carolina and Pittsburgh did nothing.

Republicans didn’t blink when one of their own got shot practicing for the congressional softball game.

As long as those checks keep coming from the gun industry, the Majority Leader doesn’t care, which is why America needs to rid itself of Mitch McConnell.

6. Thanks for your input. However...

I can safely bet that Moscow Mitch got much more, as he sure wouldn't allow those on the list to beat him.

In the back of my brain, I seem to remember that the Russians gave $30M to the Trump campaign through the NRA. Anyone with a good memory remember?

3. The NRA is not just about gunz, they've been pushing racism and white wing agenda for decades.

Guns and hate go together.

4. Yes.

7. NRA is Russian Money Launderer

Any money Rethuglicans take from NRA is no more, no less than illegal dark money from Russia.
