Trump Says He Will Seek Anti-Terrorism Advice from the Domestic Terrorist-Loving NRA

"I will be meeting with the NRA...to discuss how to ensure Americans have the means to protect themselves in this age of terror."[/blockquote

We have seen, as Clinton campaign chair John Podesta said, that Donald Trump has nothing close “to resembling a real strategy for fighting terrorists and keeping our people safe.” In fact, the Republican response all around seems to be a recipe for more guns and less regulation.

In this environment there was nothing to stop Donald Trump from upping the ante of downright stupid, announcing yesterday that he would be seeking anti-terrorism advice from the NRA. After all, who knows more about using guns to kill innocent people than the NRA, unless it is the Republican Party itself, which insists on the God-given right of terrorists to buy guns?

Great idea, Donald, ask the guys whose strategy worked so well at stopping mass shootings at places like Columbine High School, Sandy Hook Elementary, Planned Parenthood at Colorado Springs, San Bernardino, and now Orlando!

Trump himself has already said that. "How many lives would have been saved if those bar patrons were carrying gun". That WILL be the answer. More guns are always their answer. Didn't they call for armed Teachers after Sandy Hook?
