Trump has a solution for kids getting their hands on guns.

Just now he said, "You have 14-year-old kids that are just as tough as a 25 year old, just as dangerous, and they carry the same gun. We have to make a provision where they are treated like older people...you have 14-year-old kids that are evil. They're sick. And they have to be put away."

So his solution is to put the kids away? No gun control to keep guns out of their hands? This is insane but the media will yawn and politely ask the next question.

Trump's MAGA morons know which 14-year-old kids he's talking about.
