Of course, if he does throw us under the bus, bashing him now will not change that, but it will give comfort to our enemies.

Trump was POTUS for more than a year before the Cruz V-Day massacre. During that time, the House and Senate had Republican majorities. Therefore, I conclude their failure to pass national reciprocity has absolutely nothing to do with those murders and everything to do with their real views on RKBA.

They are of course welcome to prove me wrong, preferably before November.
There is a limit of what one can do without 60 senate votes. I realize that you know this but it takes 60.
Shall I take it then, that you agree Las Vegas and Parkland are red herring excuses, and are not reasons we don't have national reciprocity yet?

True. It's also true school shootings are a red herring when it comes to their failure to pass reciprocity or hearing protection.

In other words, would states still be able to ban concealed carry at so-called "sensitive locations" such as bars, hospitals, churches, etc.? Section (c)(1) seems to indicate that states would no longer be able to declare such locations as off-limits, but I'd be surprised if that's what Congress really intends.
States could still prohibit us from carrying in legitimately "sensitive locations" such as courts, jails, State mental hospitals, et cetera. Private entities could still post 30.06 signs (or local equivalent) to prohibit trespassing with a concealed handgun. However, reading it literally, a State or local government wouldn't have to power to make private property off-limits. That power would be reserved for the private property owner/management, as it should be.
