CNN talking to Republicans and it seems as if the GOP is going

Last edited Thu Jun 23, 2016, 06:06 PM - Edit history (1)

to try and come up with no fly no buy legislation. Trump supporter said that maybe Trump can broker a deal with the NRA and congress. Now I'm just a village girl from Canada, but why is it that the NRA would even be part of a deal? Are they some 4th branch of government or something? And is giving Trump this chance to 'broker' the same thing as being given a baseball team to get political bona fides.
