Trump supports assault weapons ban and longer gun purchase waiting period

"I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun. With today’s Internet technology we should be able to tell within 72-hours if a potential gun owner has a record."
Trump is a lying sleaze. A perfect GOP candidate.

Common misconception government has no rights other than the rights granted and has no power to grant rights.
Like the difference between unalienable and inalienable which have now been blurred in modern English dictionaries
Or the concept of a living Constitution. It is but only in the ability of the people make changes through the amendment procedure. Ignorant of or ignoring it is not a right granted to anyone at any level.
The Haller vs Washington DC Supreme Court Case saw them ducking the question of 9th and 10th Amendment rights granted except for splitting the two parts. The Second Amendment when coupled with another section gives the federal government the responsibility to define well regulated as in Uniform Code of Military Justice, uniforms types of equipment etc.
Another right not granted is turning State employees into untouchable Federal Employees by banning the use of the recall for Senators and Representatives. The requirements for election to the office of State delegate to the federal goveernment sitting in Congress are clearly stated with age and place of birth for Pres/Vice-Pres. Age for the Congress and no requirements other than Presidential nomination and approval by the Senate for the Representatives. ALL else is left to the States. Until the selection of Senators turned them into Representatives At Large.thus began the dismantling of checks and balances.
But the notion that the government or the Constitution granted us rights is false. Other way around. Citizens Constitution and their employees the government in that order.
Is there anyway to estimate how many are in the country?
