Welcome to a special edition of 360. And President Trumps confidence that he and he alone can take on the National Rifle association and secure legislation for stricter background checks. Also his visit to el paso and dayton this week and his behavior throughout. We begin, though, not in either of those cities, but in clear lake, iowa, because all of this is now part of the president ial campaign. Joining us now is julian castro. Do you take the president at his word actually, i probably shouldnt phrase it that way. Do you believe he actually is going to try to do something on background checks because thats what he said after parkland. Hes saying the same thing. Do you think its going to be different this time . Well, look, all of us hope and will work toward that. I hope that the president is serious and Mitch Mcconnell is serious, but like anybody who has watched these two and what theyve done when it comes to common sense gun safety legislation in the past, im not holding my breath

who claims there was no massacre in colorado. your days are numbered [ bleep ]. similar harassment now happens to families every time there s a mass shooting. that s the worst kind of harm you can do to someone. you re a devastated parent becoming more devastated. shooting at century theaters. after the massacre in colorado, sandy and lonnie who were gun owners themselves, filed a lawsuit against companies who sold gear to their daughter s killer over the internet. the judge threw out the case. they had to declare bankruptcy and consult for a gun control group to make ends meet. but they keep that work separate from their outreach to survivors. we don t bring up guns when we go. we never bring up politics or
