Please provide the documentation that shows how Trump had plans to ban suppressors and pass universal background checks by executive fiat but that the impeachment proceedings derailed those plans.  That sounds like conspiracy stuff but if there's any truth to it at all that isn't common knowledge I'd like to know about it

This isn’t the first time President Trump has voiced his personal opinions against certain gun parts. He previously said bump stocks should be “written out”after the Parkland shooting in February 2018—a ban that went into effect back in April. The ban was also inspired by the October 2017 Las Vegas massacre that left nearly 60 people dead.

As many observers note, these bans are largely ineffective in preventing gun violence and massacres. We shall see if President Trump recommends ATF restrict suppressors even further.

In comments to reporters Friday morning, Trump boasted he could get Senate Republicans behind a bill strengthening background checks for gun sales, and that his supporters would get on board as well if he told them to. (The NRA, for one, does not support an enhanced background check bill.) Trump said he had spoken to McConnell and claimed the Senate Republican leader is now “totally on board” with passing something.

President Donald Trump on Wednesday signaled he won't work with Democrats in Congress on an array of issues until they halt their "phony investigations" into him.

his supporters would get on board as well if he told them to. I want you to read that slowly

what does he think of you?

his supporters would get on board as well if he told them to.
gun control, suppressors, background checks, infrastructure, spending bills, coronavirus quarantine gov’t control of production, ”WE aren’t going to open the country all at once”

his supporters would get on board as well if he told them to.

So you're not withholding your vote from Trump in November, you're just being critical and holding his feet to the fire. But when your "criticisms" take the form of unsubstantiated accusations like how he was all set to enact gun control but was sidelined by impeachment, that's a little more than criticism if it isn't verifiable. And as far as holding his feet to the fire, why don't you make your criticisms to the white house or to your member of congress instead of venting your spleen here on this forum where it makes you sound like a bitter malcontent motivated by hatred for the President?

I do

do you know your Rep? Where the office is? Do you know both your Senators? Got their emails? Have you spoken to their representatives?

who's your Governor? State Rep? State Senator? Who is the Chief Justice of your State Supreme Court? Have to visited your Statehouse?

whats the last bill your a Governor signed?

are you politically involved...or a Trump fan

 

if you read the links, they are not unsubstantiated. They are ignored by the believers.

I’m not withholding my vote, it’s mine to cast. I cannot ‘withhold’ it as that would imply that somebody deserves it without question.

my vote is mine and it won’t be for a liberal populist, democrat socialist, or undeserved icon

I am both politically involved and have worked on political campaigns and in the gun rights movement since the 80's AND I am a supporter of the president though not a "fan". I didn't even vote for Trump in the primary, I voted For Cruz because I didn't think Trump was conservative enough but that was a mistake because Cruz could have never defeated Hillary. And  I only reluctantly voted for Trump in the general election because we needed every vote we could get to defeat the Democrats and even at that the election was close.

 But I don't really like Trump as a person but I like what he's done for the country as a whole and I like his judicial appointments and de-regulation and those things are far more important than if I like or dislike him.  But I don't like his stupid tweets and how he runs off at the mouth, and all of your links that you posted were all 90% things that he said while shooting off his mouth rather than things that he's actually done. The only gun control he's actually enacted was the bump stock ban and that was a mistake.

My biggest criticism of Trump all along is that while he supports and upholds many conservative principles, he is NOT a fiscal conservative ore a small government conservative. Even so, the Democrats are a thousand times worse.

 

So how about you? are you politically active? Do you make your criticisms of the president and of our government  known to YOUR representatives and to the white house? I do. And my member of congress knows who I am because I actually campaigned for her opponent in the first primary but no hard feelings. And as I've said, I have worked on many political campaigns trying to get good people elected to office. Have you ever done that? I've also met the past two mayors of the city where I used to live along with the Chief of police and the Sheriff of the county where I live. (I still live in the same county but moved to a small town outside the bigger city)

Democrats Demand Stimulus Bill Include Reparations For Transgender Native Americans Affected By Climate Change

Nothing is so pathetic as stupid things done for no legitimate reason.

Dems are pulling out all the stops to try to get small groups of voters with underlying issues to oppose Trump, because he won't want to buy them like the Dems do.  I hope this absurd crap is cut, but we'll see.

The Democrats and their saint Pelosi know they are going to lose this election, and their irrationality is being brought to bear in a last desperate frontal assault to oblivion.  It's much like Biden Claiming victory because he says he has the Black vote.

If no stimulus bill, then get back to work and compensate for the down time by income tax adjustments.  Pee on the Pork, it's too expensive.  Or use some reason to limit the damage from the virus to the economy, and the damage from the cure to the economy.

The Department of Homeland Security has been briefed that New York City’s morgues are nearing capacity, according to a department official and a second person familiar with the situation. 

Officials were told that morgues in the city are expected to reach capacity next week, per the briefing. A third person familiar with the situation in New York said some of the city’s hospital morgues hit capacity in the past seven days. And a FEMA spokesperson told POLITICO that New York has asked for emergency mortuary assistance. Hawaii and North Carolina have asked for mortuary help as well, and the disaster response agency is currently reviewing the requests, according to the spokesperson.

-Politico

NY State has 300 deaths

Hawaii has 95 cases...0 deaths

North Carolina has 504 cases.....1 death

 

obviously the morgues are overflowing
