Well, if you are a gun nut, your only options are to support Trump or support his opponents who want to restrict guns in a very serious way. Naturally, you still support Trump even after bump stock ban. This is perfectly rational. Nothing partisanship about it, IMO.
- maxxxxx 8y ago"support his opponents who want to restrict guns in a very serious way." Is that accurate? Sounds more like NRA propaganda to me to keep people in line.
- krapp 8y agoSupporting Trump even when he bans bump stocks when one would oppose Democrats doing the same, and believing Democrats will always be worse than Republicans on gun control, is the definition of partisanship. The actual truth is both parties believe in gun control and both parties believe in the Second Amendment. One side just panders to gun owners and the NRA more than the other.
- nopriorarrests 8y agoWhat are their options? Form a third party? And, tbh, democrats do not hold NRA in high regard, so thinking that they always be worse on gun control sounds like a reasonable assumption to me. I mean, I get your point, but guns does not illustrate it well.
- krapp 8y agoI'm just saying, the non-partisan choice would be to treat Trump or any Republican the same as any Democrat, based on their actions and not their affiliation. As far as their options, it depends on what they want. If they want the complete repeal of all gun laws... no lawmaker is going to support that. Everything else is a matter of negotiation, though.
