If Bammie & Hilly push gun control into the campaign, they will just hand another football to Trump.

Al Gore (and Bill Bradley) in 2000 pushed for national gun registration and licensing of owners at the Federal level.

Trump reassures voters “I will protect your gun rights” and the thing is practically done.

You're absolutely right. They have to know this but I really don't think they can help themselves. Congenital defect with authoritarian types maybe? Free men are armed men (and women) and wannabe tyrants just can't stand anyone not being under their control.
