Funny. Seems to me you're the one who would fit that bill. I made the "mistake" of schooling you on a couple of issues a few years ago, and ever since then you've done nothing but troll me. Usually with memes because you can't use the English language worth a shite.

You're Exhibit A of the loser who needs to be watched.


PS - If you don't trust Trump, go with Pocahontas. She's a huge phony, so she's the perfect candidate for you, troll.

your thread title is a lie.

he has supported guns even in his past. look it up. he was just for some restrictions.

the bump stock argument is laughable. it is an attachment just like a suppressor which is listed under the NFA! if you are crying over bump stocks you should be crying over the fact suppressors have to be registered, approved, and taxed through ATF.

let me know when trump actually bans a gun. then i will bitch with you.

Trump is not a conservative. He's a moderate populist.

He will do whatever seems popular at that present time.

Agreed. Due to his background I don’t think ilhe values/understands the 2A like other Republicans


On the contrary, I think he values and understands it very much like other Republicans do, and that's a problem. Republicans don't respect the 2A the way they do other rights in the BoR, and I think much of it has to do with the corrupt NRA. Republicans don't have to worry about preserving, protecting, and defending the Constitution according to their oath, they just have to not piss off the NRA to where they give a bad grade.

So who is this 2020 candidate you plan to vote for who has the balls and power to protect 2A better than Trump? If anyone else is elected from either side you will see 2A 1A and every other freedom that the constitution has granted Americans erased before their first term is over.
The deep state never thought she would lose and if they ever hold the executive branch again they will make sure that a patriot is never elected again.
Wake the F up and support the first President for the people elected in our lifetimes before it is our last.

This is an overused and too simplistic argument.

The real reason that George HW Bush lost to Bill Clinton is because 2A supporters who were angry with him over his position on the 2A either stayed home or voted for Perot.

And whether you think the Bump Stock is an irrelevant toy or not, the fact is that by executive fiat, President Trump got it banned.

When Obama was President, even when the Dems controlled both chambers of Congress, he talked a lot, but was unable to get any meaningful changes that weakened our gun rights. in fact, during the Obama tenure our laws, especially at the state level trended toward more gun rights (with some notable exceptions like Connecticut following Newtown).

Sometimes, for this issue, it's better to be in the opposition party. If a Dem was in power trying to ban the bumpstock or put in red flag laws or put forth universal background checks, everybody on the right would be fighting them tooth and nail. As it is, there are a bunch of people on the right either making excuses for President Trump or worse yet trying to shame people who are pointing out this blind spot/ weakness.

"Well then, go vote for Warren or Bernie!" is not a constructive reply. Instead we need to be pushing back. Trump is a populist who loves his base. His base needs to hear how unpopular this is.

The Trump record on the 2nd amendment right now would be right in line with a moderate democrat instead of a constitutional conservative.

Donald Trump is so weak on gun rights and it's very disappointing that I can't trust him on this issue.

Correct.

Blind sycophancy is how George W. Bush was allowed to turn into an absolutely shitty President that was so bad it set conservatives back years. We enabled Bush to stab conservatives in the back time and time again.

We cannot make the same mistake with Donald Trump on such a sensitive issue like gun rights.

I hate water carriers who think Trump can do nothing wrong.

We've known this for years and years.

I have supported Trump since the primaries and will continue to do so.


And, still, you supported him in the primaries over at least 2 candidates who were actual, legitimate conservatives with solid, verifiable, and consistent conservative records.

You got what you wanted- a POTUS who doesn't really care to defend the 2nd Amendment... nor the 5th- but loves to run his mouth. Stop complaining. You knew his position on the 2nd Amendment when you chose to support him over actual conservatives. Play stupid games and all.

Oh, and those reading can go ahead and downvote and while you do, just remember these words, "Take the guns first; go though due process second."

You blame it all on Trump, just like NBC, why? You trying to cost him votes?

Trump made it easier for the mentally ill to get guns when he rolled back Obama regulation

Hit the link and buried halfway down the second page you'll find the truth....

Trump Signs Bill Revoking Obama-Era Gun Checks for People With Mental Illnesses

Both the House and Senate last week passed the new bill, H.J. Res 40, revoking the Obama-era regulation.

But you blame Trump. Pose much?
