foreign policy, i listened to a lot of what leon panetta had to say, i agree with much of it, much of it i ve already said. and the idea that we re going to repel an entire group of people on the basis of their religion, it s nonsense. as you know, i ve been in a twitter war with donald trump and experience does matter and i have a lot of it, chuck, that s why i have a solid plan to get rid of isis and rebuild our military. very quickly, bill bratton, new york city police commissioner, says he wants congress to ban the ability of anybody on a terrorist watch list even if they re an american citizen that they cannot buy firearms. it s a proposal sitting in congress. the nra isn t happy with it. where are you on it? i ve never heard it until right now. i ve had a lot of respect for bill bratton but i will tell you americans want to defend themselves and what we need to focus on on firearms right now is making sure states use their databases to upload the people who have mental il
