It is actually a brilliant plan. The gun ban legislation fails, he then blames the republicans for it, then comes 2014 senators election, this gun ban failure raises its ugly head, BOH blaming republicans.
Now guess who the people will vote for, yep democraps. Once the election dust settles, democraps will have control over the house and senate. Now the gov can pass all the legislation they want and push America further into socialism, chaos.
