Biden: Trump 'Has No Intestinal Fortitude' to Address Gun Violence (Mediaite article, VIDEO)
https://www.mediaite.com/tv/biden-trump-has-no-intestinal-fortitude-to-address-gun-violence/Joe Biden took questions from reporters in Iowa today and talked about gun control in the wake of the horrific shooting in West Texas.
Biden reiterated his position on banning assault weapons and said they can act in ways that dont violate anyones Second Amendment rights.
When one reporter asked if theres any compromise to be made with Republicans in Washington, Biden said, None on this. I think theres no compromise, this is one we have to just push, push, and push.
Biden was asked if there will be no possible solution to the gun issue until next fall.
I dont see anything out there, do you? Biden responded. Ive seen nothing, the president has no intestinal fortitude to deal with this. He knows better. His instinct was to say, Yeah, were going to do something on background checks. Whats he doing? Come on, this is disgraceful. This is disgraceful whats happening.
