Congress can pass and the president can sign anything and the courts can uphold, but that doesn’t make any legislation constitutional or unconstitutional.

Will suppressors be banned? Probably not. Will the House pass a bill and the senate kill it? Probably.

Will the president declare an EO banning suppressors? Probably not. Will he maybe want to? Who knows.

If the Founders/Framers knew what technology would bless/curse us with over time, would they have refrained from implicitly binding natural rights, self determination and a nation together? Probably, they knew that truth, justice and reason are not changeable based on time or feeling, like the rule of law.

They also knew that our republic was always at risk from totalitarianism, and they were right. The republic is at risk and we are the only force standing between either anarchy, totalitarianism or peaceable governance.

Correction,\: “...and we AND OUR ARMS are the only force standing between either anarchy, totalitarianism or peaceable governance.”
