The best take I've seen is that Democrats should take this opportunity, dust off an old gun control bill that failed, rename it the President Trump Assassination Prevention Act and try to pass it. Republicans will still vote against it, but they'll be on record as voting against the President Trump Assassination Prevention Act.

Oh yes, that's going to help Democrats get their eventual nominee elected. A gun control bill, right now, when most of the party is sending out thoughts and prayers for the bullet.
