Donald Trump met members of Congress to discuss safety in schools after the Florida massacre Kevin Lamarque/ReutersPresident Trump broke with his political allies last night by saying that guns should be confiscated from individuals who displayed signs of mental illness without first going through the courts. “I like taking the guns early like in this crazy man’s case that just took place . to go to court would have taken a long time,” Mr Trump said, referring to the gunman who killed 17 people and injured 14 at a Florida school last month. “Take the guns first, go through due process second,” he said. The remarks stood out because conservative groups have long stirred up followers by claiming that their Democrat rivals would disarm America without due process.
