5. Tim Ryan says Trump's idea to tie gun control to immigration "is an absolute freaking joke"

"That's a joke. That's an absolute freaking joke that he's going to tie this to the most polarizing issue happening in the United States around immigration reform. This is very clear-cut here. There are people that are getting access to guns that shouldn't be, and the guns are high-powered. The magazines hold too many bullets," Ryan, a 2020 Democratic presidential candidate, told CNN's Erica Hill on "New Day."

&quot Senate Majority Leader) Mitch McConnell needs to get off his ass and do something. People are getting killed in the streets in America and nobody is acting. Nobody. There's a bottleneck in the United States Senate. The House has sent a comprehensive background check bill supported that's by 80 to 90% of the American people. What the hell are we doing in the United States of America?" Ryan said.

I am loving how Ryan is talking here. This is how he should always talk about Chump and Moscow Mitch from now on.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
