The Republican Party will face a primary challenge from hard-right Republicans if they backrational gun policy, according to Biden.

Biden replied "many of them do" when asked if Republican leaders wanted to tackle gun violence.

The president urged Americans to vote on gun safety issues and to understand a candidate's stance on issues like assault weapon ownership and magazine sizes.

Biden replied that he has issued some of the executive orders within the scope of his powers as a president.

The president doesn't want to follow in Trump's footsteps by issuing executive orders.
