Just remember, we are at WAR with the anti-gun/2A crowd.
You may not like everything about your ally but enemy of my enemy is my friend applies very appropriately with 2020 election and future of gun rights/2A.
Elections have consequences.
Vote wisely if you want to keep your guns.
First, I'm keeping my guns regardless.
But, you're right, I am at (political) war with the anti-gun/2A crowd. But, my political enemy in this war doesn't always have to be from the "blue" party rather than the "red" party. Yeah, Trump got to put judges and justices in place who will likely be more conservative than Clinton's choices would have been (time will tell - justices don't always perform as expected, and recent decisions have already proven that point). And, yes, I did vote for Trump in 2016 because I knew what the alternative would mean. As it stands now, I'm starting to wonder if we might have an anti-gun president instead of an anti-gun president.
In short, performance does matter. If Trump goes anti-gun on us, I have no use for him politically. As for your question in another post about who I would vote for that was more in favor of 2nd Amendment rights, I'm sure I could find an independent candidate for a party such as the Libertarians who would meet such a goal. You may consider that throwing away one's vote, but I don't. If the man in the office isn't doing the one job that I elected him to do when I voted for him (ex: protecting 2nd Amendment rights), then I'm not going to give him my vote again.
Honestly, the fact that he knows people will continue to vote for him regardless of what he does is exactly how he has the political power to potentially levy further restrictions on gun rights. I'm not his patsy on this issue... if he continues down the anti-2nd Amendment path, I'm not voting for him. I'm not giving him the support to go in a direction other than what he promised us during the campaign. If everyone who voted for him felt that way, I guarantee he'd start speaking in a more pro-liberty direction. But, as this thread has already shown, folks will vote for him no matter what he does. Frankly, I think that's unfortunate. Politicians (more than most folks in our society) need to be held accountable for the decisions they make.
I guess I'm a lot more hard-line on this issue than I used to be. I've been watching our rights get whittled away for 30 years now, and I'm tired of it.
