Sen. Bill Nelson said President Trump's snub of him earlier this week was "counterproductive" to finding bipartisan support for gun measures.

Great talking with @JoeNBC this morning on @Morning_Joe about what we need to do to enact commonsense measures to combat this epidemic of gun violence. In order to solve this problem, we’ve got to bring people together – not divide people. pic.twitter.com/KtYEm4xwxE — Bill Nelson (@SenBillNelson) March 2, 2018

The White House hasn't said why Trump excluded Nelson but there's a strong suspicion it has to to with Trump's friend Gov. Rick Scott.
