President Trump asked members at his Mar-a-Lago Club about gun-control issues in the wake of the shooting at a nearby Florida high school, The Washington Post reported Sunday.
Trump during the holiday weekend reportedly asked the members about whether or not he should take an active stance on gun control laws. He also told them that he was closely watching the media appearances made by student survivors of the shooting, according to the Post.
Student survivors called on Trump and lawmakers to take action on gun control in the wake of the shooting that left 17 people dead. Several survivors made appearances on Sunday morning shows.
The White House announced Sunday that Trump will host a “listening session” with students to discuss school safety measures.
And the president met with survivors of the shooting in the hospital on Friday, as well as first responders and law enforcement.
The president reportedly spent the weekend watching television and complaining about the special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe, according to the Post.

Plato was right. We should leave all major policy questions to members of Mar-a-Lago.
