President Obama cut his European trip short to “bring people together.”

But the “people” he wants to bring together may not include everyone.

Step one of the president’s plan to unify is to host the “task force” he created after the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missourri, where the false “hands up don’t shoot” narrative was born.

He said he planned to build on the task force by bringing in “law enforcement and community activists and civil rights leaders.”

But when White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest was asked if representatives from the National Rifle Association would be invited he didn’t have an answer.

And it’s unlikely that they will be considering that Earnest also characterized people who opposed the president’s gun control ideas as “dangerous.”

Way to bring everyone together Barry.

Glad to see the administration is toning down its rhetoric in light of recent events. Oh, wait… Divisive as ever. https://t.co/eYYaL8IBHm

@Truthseer1961 @eilperin @PressSec @POTUS @LorettaLynch The recent shooting from #BlackLivesMatter means we need MORE guns instead of less.
