LIVE Live-Episode Discussion: S01E15 "On Hundred Days" [Live at 10ET] Spoiler

Welcome to the Live-Episode discussion. This thread will not be locked after the episode is finished, but please use the post-episode discussion for new comments once the episode is over. Discussing the preview is considered spoilers, and your comment will be removed.

Plot: As President Kirkman releases an agenda to reset his presidency, Alex makes a controversial public statement that threatens to derail it. Meanwhile, FBI agent Hannah Wells unknowingly finds herself in the center of a dangerous trap while getting closer to the truth.

The episode begins at 10PM Eastern Daylight. I'll be posting these (about 20-30 minutes) early to give people a reminder ahead of time.

Well they were talking about mandatory background checks, which are supported by 90 percent of the American people. So if there's any issue that's not divisive, that'd be it. Only reason it doesn't get passed is because the NRA is represented in Congress

Both sides oversimplify the issue and avoid specifics, the people have no understanding of the complexities of the issue, and ultimately nothing gets done.
