"Trump Lost Interest"

After showing an initial interest in certain kinds of gun control following a recent mass shooting, sources say President Trump is “losing interest” in gun control. He must have looked at the whole idea of gun control and rightly figures out that there is no gun control law that can actually do the job of reducing “gun crime,” so he has lost interest in it. Trump’s a smart guy, unlike all the ignorant politicians who think they can reduce gun crime by making guns harder to get legally, by the law-abiding. He is smart enough to realize that gun control is a “forlorn hope” in reducing gun crime, so why bother? Just to make it look like you’re doing something? Very revealing is the call to “pass something,” heard in Congress, and legislatures everywhere. They have no idea what will work, but they just “pass something” so it will LOOK like they’re doing something. Trump rightly doesn’t want to join those ignorant politicians in “passing something” that will do nothing to solve the problem. Of course, that will earn him the scorn of those ignorant politicians, when he doesn’t join them in their ignorance. (Twitter)
