Trump= 2A threat.

Late to the party

Well trump is falling for the same tactics that always work against the republicans and the RNC.

Every time the Dems pass gun control they lose seats and power in government. It's easier to trick the Republicans to do the dirty work for them since they get what they want AND they'll end up with more seats in government to boot. What do they have to lose?

What do they have to lose?

The Republic

They have to live with the legacy of what they have done just like us. Sometimes I really wonder what they hell they are thinking. If political, racial, and/or socio-economic violence is ever realized on a large scale in this country their families are first on the list.

I think folks are putting too much into what the MSM is pushing.

One. It's starting to look like Obama's term is going to be better for guns and rights. Look at all the progress we've made under his watch. Seriously.

Two. The media, the leaders, and the people are all in a very short vision mindset. The Russians, the Muslims, the Asians, and likely others are very long term vision. They understand delayed gratification. Even if it might take multiple generations. Trump might want to get reelected. Not likely that he does. His ego may compel him, but I don't think he's having as much fun as he thought.

Three. I think if the country stays the course we will get a much worse version of Hillary. Hope I'm wrong.

I don't what to think about anything anymore.

I don't what to think about anything anymore.

I'm kinda lost too. I'm going to sit back and see how it plays out.

[Bailey Guns]

Not so much lost for me. I think I'm just getting numb to it. From all sides. I f'ing hate the left but I'm getting tired of my side (myself included) constantly having to defend the same shit over and over. It's very tiring.

Let's wait to see what actually happens. It's just talk now. Trump seems to like to mention possible solutions to show understanding.

Did anyone really expect him to be a 2A supporter? Even during the election he was happy to go against gun owners by publicly supporting the idea that people be put on a terrorist/no-fly list and stripped of their 2A rights without due process. I'm not as conservative as most of the people on this forum, but even I could see that the president is not a conservative and will not stand up for gun rights (though I'm sure had the democrats won the presidency and done a little better in the house and senate we would have had some reaaaally bad shit by now).

We had a bunch of system issues at work so I had almost a full day of internet browsing, and I'm getting sick of a lot of fellow gun owners just believing that this, like every other bit of nonsense, scandal, and infighting, is just some grand strategy that only Trump can see. Trump is NOT a supporter of the 2A in any greater way than paying lip service to get elected.
