    I think Trump fucked up bigly here. The gun nuts, of which I am a portion, don't want to hear confiscate guns first, and due process later. That was some bullshit. Fuck off Trump, you dumb orange baboon.

    To be fair, I don't think liberals want to hear that either. Other than to find a reason to bag on Trump

    Seems like some here are upset that their fake campaign issue for November has been defused

    I know Trump has pissed off some of his base. That kind of goes with compromise to get shit done that I have heard is what moderates and libs want from him

    Guess not

    If he's pissed off @Swaye he's pissed off America

    I'm just saying that the liberals he might make happy by cozying up with feel good anti-gun rheotoric still aren't going to vote for him - they hate him. But people like me who did vote for him because we thought he wouldn't fuck with the 2nd Amendment might just stay home next time around. Most gun nuts I know are single issue voters and they have a long memory. I got about 20 texts just yesterday from people saying they'd never set foot in a Dick's Sporting Goods again.

    Trump better be careful. If he loses the NRA, it's over for him.

    Hey, we both know I voted for him because I would have voted for a rock over Hillary, but I also hoped he'd do three things:

    Deregulate and lower taxes - DONE
    Piss off all of Washington DC - DONE
    Not fuck with the 2nd Amendment - Uh oh....

    I didn't realize you were a big fan of civil forfeiture.

    I agree with your analysis. As I have said, I'm not a gun guy but I'll shoot anyone that wants to take yours.

    This is a political move by a non politician that could in fact backfire.

    There is concern that the sheer volume of the anti gun crowd after yet another shooting could have an impact this November.

    Personally I don't listen to moderates who vote democrat anyway and prefer scorched earth Trump but he's working the crowd.

    I fucking love scorched Earth Trump. Hell, I could be wrong about all of this. Maybe he does swing some independents with this tactic, and the NRA types still vote for him as opposed to [insert liberal snowflake], but I think it was a super risky move. 98% of NRA Life members (me included) are squarely in the basket of deplorables. It's his best voting block.

    You don't go bankrupt several times and build a fortune by being afraid of risk. That's the non politician in him. But it is a political move and that does hurt the outsider image
