Another lousy issue I see to this debacle - The Obama Administration is no better than Trump by using our southern neighbors as a bogey man! Oh those scary Mexicans. Pretty stupid foreign policy to keep insulting the citizens with whom we share an immediate (and permeable) border. Geez.
NAFTA was a farce and a failure --- U.S. companies sent manufacturing to China, while the Mexican economy slid and the drug business grew. China exploded in world economic, industrial, & military strength. We would have had fewer illegal immigrants/desperate people coming north if they had decent jobs at home. And now there are complaints when a U.S. company sends manufacturing to Mexico. Another missed opportunity.
...and so it goes --- This stupid play to use guns and border problems to manipulate public opinion - may it all come to light.
I was watching a back and forth between Cruz and Feinstein over gun legislation and an attempt to ban more guns. Feinstein's response was Americans still have access to over 2,000+ types so banning some wont affect anything.

Again, I'm disgusted. How do we hit the reset button (ctrl alt delete) and clean up our government? ...and even more, delusional of me, hoping that we can have a non-violent change....
Too many times our leaders (of both parties) forget the law and treat the globe as an international game (mostly played in secret). They keep trying to rig it in our favor; forgetting things such as law, and human rights.... and again and again we create the next war and the next generation of enemies.
Iran-Contra Affair
The Iran-Contra Affair was a clandestine action not approved of by the United States Congress. It began in 1985, when President Ronald Reagan's administration supplied weapons to Iran¹ — a sworn enemy — in hopes of securing the release of American hostages held in Lebanon by Hezbollah terrorists loyal to the Ayatollah Khomeini, Iran's leader. This article is rooted in the Iran Hostage Crisis.
Reagan testifies
The U.S. took millions of dollars from the weapons sale and routed them and guns to the right-wing "Contra"² guerrillas in Nicaragua. The Contras were the armed opponents of Nicaragua's Sandinista Junta of National Reconstruction, following the July 1979 overthrow of strongman Anastasio Somoza Debayle and the ending of the Somoza family's 43-year reign.

Not with that being his intention. He has made his intentions very clear, and it is not to sell more guns. If you think that, I have a bridge I'll sell you cheap.
And since F&F was very dumb of him as admitted by all, then he can be expected to do other dumb things which end up sharing a common theme: They backfire and do the opposite of what his intentions were, like his actions causing people to go out and buy mass guns.
