"If you done any research you would know that Republicans own the vast majority of those legislative houses."

Two questions:

When it comes to politicians, especially establishment Republican politicians, everything has a price. I consider my liberty and the 2nd Amendment, which goes a long way towards protecting that liberty, too valuable to put up for sale - someone might just decide to meet the price.

… put up for sale…

The whole point is that your precious Second Amendment right (a sentiment I share) already is up for sale and is being sold right out from under you. It is being sold every day. Simply look at the parade of gun restriction laws.

It is utterly illusory to believe that your Second Amendment rights will do any more than hopefully deter the government from some tyrannical adventure. If the idea is to wage a civil war, a guerrilla war, a revolution or a campaign of terrorism, against a tyrannical government, that is utterly illusory for the reasons expressed HERE .

Our liberties are being sold out from under us everyday. When the court is in session you can count on your liberties eroding every Monday when the opinions are announced. When the court is not in session, or rather every day of every week of every month you can count on your liberties being sold by bureaucrats clandestinely acting in dark corners. Do you live in San Francisco? How are your liberties doing there? How is your gun helping you in your quest to maintain your liberties if you live in San Francisco? How do you think your liberties will fare if Camilla Harris treats the presidency the way she treated the office of Atty. Gen.?

Every day in every way the current situation is one of eroding liberty.

The objection of the National Rifle Association to the Article V movement is a selfish stand to protect one liberty and their Rice bowl among the shower of cascading liberties. Let the devil take the hindmost, or throwing the Bill of Rights to the alligators in the hope that your favored liberty will be consumed last, is folly.
