Sen. Nelson: Will ‘Be Very Hard for [GOP] to Support Anything the NRA Doesn’t Bless’
RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
TODD: "Folks, remember that similar live immigration meeting in the cabinet room it ended in a similar way, the president was in favor of a bipartisan deal and would back whatever deal the people in the room came up with and you remember what happened next. The White House that killed the bipartisan deal cooked up in the Senate. And earlier I spoke with senator bill Nelson and asked him for his takeaway from what he saw happen at this meeting."
NELSON: "Look at the body language of the Republicans in the room. I think it is going to be a very hard -- for them to support anything that the NRA does not bless.
TODD: "You saw President Trump say don't be afraid of the NRA.
NELSON: "Well, that is his words. But what have we seen? What have we always seen? What is happening right now and in your and my state capitol on this state of Florida in the last week of the state legislature. The kids have been up there and just having rallies, they are so impressive, they are so strong, they are so articulate. And yet look at what is happening. The NRA lobbyist is locking down on all of the legislators."
