> Gun control is the Holy Grail for Dems. They wouldn’t care WHO gave it to them if they could get it.
The supreme court is the holy grail. They planned on getting that with Hillary, then congress becomes irrelevant for gun control or anything else. As long as LA, SanFran, NYC and a few other places select the president, they could rule the country with 6 liberals (president + SC). They could make or repeal any law they want.
They’ve already had a huge setback with the SC. If they don’t take back the senate this year it could take decades to get where they want.
If a Trump “win” or a R congress passing gun control will make it more likely for Rs to keep the senate then Ds are against it. Forget your anti-2nd go-worker who would love any gun restrictions. Think about Pelosi and the other “leaders” who are acting long-term.
Sorry, but you just cant get more counter-factual than that statement. The idea of Trump and/or the Republicans winning elections with gun control is too preposterous to be taken seriously.
