I listen to a number of tpodcasts so I don't remember which one I heard that
particular discussion on. But Intercepted is one very informative podcast.
Also, Citations Needed with Adam Johnson and The Dig with Daniel Denver.

Neither I, I am quite suspicious of his surreal summit with bipartisan
lawmakers. What is the podcast you are listening to?

I don't trust that particular statement that Trump made. He is constantly
shifting his position on issues. And yesterday, I heard some discussion on
podcasts to the effect that the NRA and the position of many legislators
is
not only influenced by money. It is also influenced by the white
nationalist
colonial settler mentality that is imbedded in American culture. There is
a
very large percentage of the white population that does not want to give
up
their guns. Politicians respond to that because they want those people to
vote for them.

Subject: [blind-democracy] Florida shooting aftermath
Capitalists resemble a critical threat. Their desire for affluence is
insatiable. (NRA) members and their pro protagonists determined to enter a
tremendously tempestuous battle with law enforcement and establishments of
civil society. It is the most ignominious crisis America has ever
encountered. Thence, it is necessary to ask, who is stronger in this
battlefield? During a bipartisan meeting on gun laws, Donald Trump has
told
legislature not to be so petrified of the gun lobby.
He also suggested raising the age of licit rifle emptors from eighteen to
twenty one. When I read about this on a BBC headline this morning, I was
taken aback. Hmm, seriously?, is this Donald Trump? He is a big fan of
NRA
be that as it may, he urged lawmakers to stand to them. Major retail
merchants determined to boycott the NRA. Well, this is a very positive
thing. The crucial factor is, are they willing to implement what has been
allegedly proposed? Will this be a turning point in US's gun market? We
hope
so. However, I reckon a relentlessly pitiless battle between lawmakers and
greed beneficiaries. If civil establishments succeeded in ostracising the
powerful gun lobby, the reaction might be unheralded. For quite a long
time,
we hear about unconscionably fatal shootings across the States. They were
more detrimental than the recent one of Florida. Why now, they talk about
changing gun laws? This was never an option. Hmm, I smell a rat. Donald
Trump in particular, was a notorious opponent to any changes of gun laws.
Subsequent to the fatal shooting at a concert in Las Vegas last October,
where fifty nine had been murdered and 5 hundred and twenty seven were
wounded, no one talked about any changes of gun laws. This indeed is a
strange situation. I think I should cross my fingers for this. Days ahead
will unveil what is now obscure.
I'd like to hear your thoughts on this controversial subject.
