Donald Trump: ‘Dummy Beto’ Sank Gun Control Chances
Breitbart ^ | September 19, 2019 | A.W.R. Hawkins

Posted on 09/19/2019 10:17:11 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

President Donald Trump reacted to Robert “Beto” O’Rourke’s gun confiscation talk by suggesting “Dummy Beto” sank any chances for gun control legislation.

Breitbart News reported that O’Rourke used the September 12, 2019, Democrat debate to say, “Hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15.” The next day he elaborated on the statement, making clear that turning over AR-15s would be “mandatory” if his plan were in place.

On September 18, 2019, Trump tweeted: “Dummy Beto made it much harder to make a deal.”

He added that Beto’s comments “Convinced many that Dems just want to take your guns away.”

A memo of White House / DOJ gun control ideas became public Wednesday, showing requirements that closely resembled those contained in Sen. Joe Manchin’s (D-WV) gun control bill. Attorney General William Barr tried to get Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) to support the push, but Cruz would have none of it.

If so, Beto contributed to the nation, if not purposefully.

“Dummy Beto”.

Bobby Francis O’Rourke better hope that catchy nickname the president gave him doesn’t stick.
At this point in time, though, it adequately describes how many people feel about him and his train-wreck of a campaign.

I cannot care less about “Dummy Beto” or his campaign, but he is almost assured of winning “Gun Salesman of the Century”.

So Trump was all in on criminalizing lawful gun owners until beto let the cat out off the bag.

Approximate dates of disarming populations (somewhat out of order):

Germany: Before Kristallnacht and the killing of the Polish Jew, 1938

China: 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated. Also note the year 1957.

Note: In 1941, just days before the Pearl Harbor attack, Congress reaffirmed Second Amendment rights and prohibited gun registration.

Turkey: 1911, while obliterating fruit with shotgun blasts. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were exterminated.

Uganda: established gun control in 1970

Guatemala: 1923

Venezuela: a combination of gun buybacks and confiscations in 2016.

USSR: 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control.

Pol Pot: Approximately 1975 Khmer Rouge thereafter committed their genocide of the Killing Fields

North Vietnamese: Approximately 1973

Look up “Operation Keelhaul”

Great chart and discussion at: http://www.fightthebias.com/resources/gundebate/history_of_gun_control.htm

But contrary to the headline, the President really said, “Dummy Beto made it much harder to make a deal.”

We’ll be watching closely to see what happens.

You should all know that at ar15.com alone, there are “Over 300,000 active members”

https://www.ar15.com/

There are many other discussion boards that welcome similar interests, but most voters who have the Second Amendment as their primary interest above all other political concerns aren’t members of any discussion forum.

And tens of millions of them are too stupid, selfish or lazy to support any lobby organization to defend our rights, but most of them will refuse to vote for *any* politician who participates in violating any Second Amendment right in the most slight or insidious way.

Seems to me Barr should be doing something else. Gun control is a priority for him?

Trump has done a dumb gun EO, that even Obama was against.

The Democrat controlled House started impeachment hearings this week...and Dummy Beto’s big mouth sank gun control, giving the President good reason to walk away from making a gun control deal with the leftists in Congress. Maybe Chairman Nadler can call Beto as the next witness...
