Trump consults Eric and Donald Jr. on possible gun reforms
President Trump consulted with his adult sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, over President's day weekend about how to address gun violence in the U.S. in the wake of the deadly high school shooting in Florida.
According to a report by The Washington Post, Trump spoke with his sons, both avid hunters, while at Mar-a-Lago over the holiday weekend. The Post reported that Trump Jr. and Trump told their father he has flexibility as president to address Republican lawmakers and the National Rifle Association (NRA) about passing common sense gun control laws.
The conversation came in the wake of the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, that left 17 dead and 14 others injured.
Erump Jr. and his brother are avid big game hunters and NRA advocates, having been photographed in 2015 alongside a number of African big game trophies including elephant tails and leopards.
Trump Jr. commented on the photos on Twitter at the time, remarking to a critic: "I can assure you it was not wasteful the villagers were so happy for the meat which they don't often get to eat. Very grateful."
