Republicans are being woefully short-sighted, just like they were with healthcare. When 90% of the country agrees that something is a problem, then the other guys are going to pass the laws they want to pass as soon as they get back into power. The smartest thing Congress could do right now is pass an immediate ban on AR-15s. They wouldn't lose a single voter over it in November, because they've already lost everyone except their hardcore base anyway. 2018 is a write-off for them. But if they don't do anything, AGAIN, the Dems will pass much more than an assault ban when they inevitably win a majority of seats this fall.
