if you look back over the last year, the legislative event that the president had the at least involvement in was tax reform, although his administration sometimes likes to say otherwise. my reporting for our book we're writing shows he was not involved. he would be wise if he wanted to get something done according to the people i've spoken to on capitol hill, let congress figure out what it wants to do, work behind the scenes, but don't -- members of congress keep saying to me if he wants to get something done he ought to focus on one thing and work behind the scenes. stop talking about age kmanchan and assault weapons bans, it's not going to happen. there's an opportunity for the president if he plays his cards right. the one thing they want to focus on is background checks. there's been movement on both sides of the aisle to strengthen the background check system. it's fallen short because of democrats, but i do think there are enough republicans who
