It all comes back to Mitch McConnell. If the "gun-rights activists" use their voice loud and clear, it might change McConnell's position on the framework, and he might not vote for the bill, according to a person close to McConnell. McConnell usually isn't very reliable.

Any change is good. We won't get to where we need to be without incremental steps. It's how things are done.

more sexist garbage from a regressive berniebro.

Was it enough when your lord and savior Bernie Sanders voted ageist gun reform 5 times??! It’s certainly more than he was willing to do! Y’all are pathetic! “Do something!” Something gets done, “No not that” “No that’s not enough”! NO MATTER what Dems do, u & ur cult hate DEMS!

Don’t interrupt Shannon Watts so you can pontificate. She is the expert. You are the interviewer. You are rude to your guest. Is it only or also because she is a woman and you are misogynist?

Not the whole interview. Terrible and misleading.

Hey @mehdirhasan - show some god damn respect for people putting their lives into this issue and trying like hell against all odds for improvement.

Shameful, Medhi.

so normal misinformation.... do bettee

A lot of the other stuff she said was pretty thoughtful. But yeah, this specific part stuck out to me as a little naive, and honestly passing out way too much credit to Republicans for acting like they’d support the bare minimum of something they’re against.
