Critics Blast Moscow Mitch For Undermining Gun Safety, Democracy | The Beat With Ari Melber | MSNBC

Democrats are raising the pressure against Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to bring gun control legislation to the floor, as studies show the majority of all Americans favor gun control laws. As McConnell continues to ignore calls to vote on gun safety immediately, GOP’s Mike DeWine, former Senator and current Ohio governor, has proposed new gun control laws in his state, marking a shift from his previous views. Former Republican White House official Bill Kristol, finds the lack of action ‘astonishing,’ citing bipartisan accord of ‘national crisis.’

  1. Moscow Mitch doesn’t have to do anything the American people ask for, he works for big businesses and the Chinese government; since Traitor Kennedy’s Citizens United, Moscow Mitch hasn’t had to answer to the American people, they don’t put him in office.

    1. @phil quinn but if you want a f****** Civil war you will get one.

      I just hope that you’re prepared to deal with the consequences of it.

      Instead of 60 people it will be Millions that’s Millions with an s at the end of it

    2. @phil quinn there’s a really famous saying where I come from you can’t fix stupid not even with duct tape you may fall in this category congratulations Here’s your sign

    3. This is what America black white Chinese Mexican think about gun control.

      This is why you guys are going to f****** die in a civil war if gun control gets passed.

      Nobody in their right mind would give up their guns if you don’t want guns I’d suggest that you move to another country because United States will never give up their guns.

    1. The US is the most unfree country. There is no freedom of speech. All Americans are slaves.

    1. Michael H licensed gun dealers are already required to do background checks for every gun sale. I do agree that gun safety classes should be something taught to everyone so that people aren’t so misinformed, inoperable, and scared of guns.

    2. @UCAFQPRmqHZwlKEVtN0qVDAQ – You are right… instead almost 50 people were killed over the weekend in Chicago alone. Just a thought, you are watching to much of the big news corporations propaganda.

    3. @Michael H you don’t think that’s exactly what they said when they passed the previous gun laws? They said an Assault weapons ban is common sense but we tried that and stats said it didn’t work. Trying to reinstate a law that didn’t work isn’t common sense.

  2. Mitch McConnell will not sell out the NRA. A big source of campaign money would dry up in an instant If he so much as allowed a vote to take place

  3. Great to see conservative Bill Krystol who speaks common sense instead of extreme Republican party politics.

    1. Bill (the Zionist ) Kristol is a racist anti-white who wants to disarm White America…He is no conservative..
      He is a Zionist / Globalist….a neo-con…

  4. Okay, people of Kentucky…what are you going to do about this in 2020? Please don’t let us down. The fact that one man can dictate the entire process of democracy in this country is crazy!

    1. Oh, my ! Are the little Socialist snowflakes triggered by any dissent? Perhaps they should go to their safe spaces and draw in their coloring books! Leave the independent thinking, research and analysis to the adults. Without free speech and the freedom to think for yourselves, typical of all Socialist and Communist nations( past or present) you wouldn’t be allowed to make comments at all. Blaming others for disagreeing with you because you cannot intelligently debate them with facts just makes you appear ignorant or stupid.

    1. Mexico democrats are campaigning back in their home country even though Mexicans have to sneak into the USA illegally in order to vote for them.

    1. MSNBC is fake news. There is no evidence that McConnell a robot at all much less a Russian one.

  5. The shootings ultimately come from the home. A feeling of belonging and a future of success in life is what is needed. We need more funding and measures for assistance with personal growth. Children graduate high school and then the world pounds on them. We also need parents to be the backbone.

  6. Massacre mitch is evil and this is not new. Not even meeting with Obama’s supreme court nominee….Moscow mitch thinks he runs the place from way back!

  7. You know the HR8 gun legislation Bill is bad, when even the ACLU and 23 national disability groups opposed the Bill.

  8. Why does trump rip into Cummings because of Baltimore? He could far better go after
    Moscow Mitch for the entire state of Kentucky! By any measure, Kentucky is an utter mess*. It is poor, unhealthy, under-employed, non-competitive, poorly educated, addicted, and despairing.
    All you have to do to see where McConnell’s priorities lie is glance at the statistics about the state he has helped govern since the mid-1980s.
