I think it's hard to say. Does Jason Atwood want to come back? Hannah asked the former Deputy Director if he'd like to continue working with her and "get revenge". But he immediately suspected her of "playing him" and threw her out. Granted he is going through a lot of emotions at this point; perhaps he'll have a completely different perspective after he's had time to process it all.

Well they just had to go to the gun issue didn't they? This was probably filmed when they thought someone else would win in Nov.

Could have done without that crap tonight.

In an earlier episode Kirkman made a passing comment about the issue of gun control, but I never expected them to broach it center-stage this early. At first it looked like the President is a politically-correct gun law reformist, but in the Town Hall he affirmed the Second Amendment.

Not sure about Aaron Shore, but glad he's still in the picture- with a surprising new boss-lady.

Looks like things aren't done being blown up yet.

Just finished the latest episode. I'm not going to keep watching if they're going to have this bullshit about background checks be front and center for multiple episodes. Fucking hell cant they leave this shit alone.....

Its funny that the writers don't even realize how stupid their stance was. A simple background check? You mean like how effective background checks were in say vetting a vice president? Morons.

A lot of us saw this after episode 2 or 3 that they were only going to be pushing leftist ideals and were out then, including me. I guess it just took some of you a bit longer.

Warning, sharp left turn ahead. Sure was disappointing and how they had to make the Montana senator look bad and that wonderful comment "Well he is from Montana" Roll Eyes

yep, i'm out too. The left never stops putting up stupid ideas until they wear down resistance by making them seem normal.

Yes, they really wanted to push the liberal agenda; guns are bad, Republicans are dishonest and stupid and on and on. I liked how they mad a point that POTUS was a liberal and in the next breath, mentioned that his ex chief of staff is a card carrying Democrat.

I'll probably voice my displeasure to the show's bosses and advertisers. If this is the trail the show is going down, I won't be watching it. There are a lot of options out there nowadays for entertainment so it's not like I have to watch the biased mainstream networks and their silly shows.

My only hope is that the writers are setting up some kind of reversal. That's actually more the norm on these kind of shows. They already had FLOTUS "walking back" her original comments on gun control.

I can only hope you are right.

I actually expect this leftist crap to infect every show before I've watched any of it.

He had already agreed with his wife that they are on the same page with gun control but he did not want that known yet as a distraction during his first 100 days. That is the only reason she is walking back her comments.

Oh and why did those two FBI Agents not handcuff that bitch before she could pull a gun on them?

"Dear Mr. President. My daughter was raped, butchered, and murdered by an illegal alien with a criminal record living in a sanctuary city. What are you going to do to keep our families safe from this?"

I am still watching but last episode was disappointing.

Indeed, it's a long shot (no pun intended), but I was hoping the First Couple actually change their stance on gun control, perhaps after some incident hits close-to-home, and Jack, I mean President Kirkman is forced to fill his hand with iron alloy or polymer.

I agree on the handcuff thing, thought that was very sloppy FBI-ing.

While the latest episode was disappointing with the gun control BS, I still enjoyed it and was glad to see Jason pick himself up and shoot Claudine when she pulled her 2nd gun.

I still love the show and will still watch it for what it is, a tv show.

Wait until they put the transgender bathroom in the White house and as a surprise, one of the major characters goes in!
