Gun Control in the US - Background Checks

[EZM]

Did not want to derail other thread or mix it with the Florida incident other than as a point of reference ...

I saw something on the news that said, essentially that the current administration reversed a law that had some provisions including background checks that likely would have prevented the perpetrator from acquiring a weapon (or at least made it significantly more difficult as some will likely argue).

The story also showed that 95% of the US citizens support background checks and over 66% of gun owners also support this ......

So why in the world would you reverse this law? Was there additional provisions that were unpalatable in the same bill or was this just a stupid and senseless reversal of something "Obama" did that dear old Trump wants to undo just because of his ego and narcissistic attempts to undo anything and everything the former administration achieved (for better or worse).

Just curious to hear from people here who might be more up to speed on the details here .....
