- All sellers must be licensed and conduct background checks, overturning current exemptions to some online and gun show sellers
This is already federal law. That he's unaware of reality, and keeps bleating about the mythical "gun show loophole" speaks volumes.  The NICS process is set up for dealers.  Allowing private citizens to access it is a huge risk to personal data. I predict failure to implement, nevermind judicial review.
- States must provide information on people disqualified due to mental illness or domestic violence
This requires Congressional funding, or is a dictate from Executive to the States, and they can, and should, tell him to go screw.
- FBI will increase workforce processing background checks by 50%, hiring more than 230 new examiners
Thank god. Those 20 minute waits for review during busy hours get irritating.
- Congress will be asked to invest $500m (£339m) to improve access to mental healthcare
That might ACTUALLY help...if they actually set up mental health clinics, and don't stigmatize anyone asking for help and threaten to revoke their rights for doing so.
- The departments of defence, justice and homeland security will explore "smart gun technology" to improve gun safety
All three have already said, "Fuck, no," and there are so many reasons why a "smart" gun is complete fantasy bullshit there's no reason to write another book about it here.
Can our next president not be a complete shithead?  Please?
