President Joe Biden on May 30 said that any deal on new gun laws in the wake of several mass shootings hinges on “rational Republicans” and that he’s limited in terms of what he can do through executive orders.

Biden, who spoke to reporters outside the White House in Washington after traveling from his home in Delaware, said he believes the situation has gotten so bad that “everybody is getting more rational about it,” or becoming more likely to support restrictions on gun ownership.
