Love Ivanka Trump, but her constituency seems to be Upper East Side NYC socialite/Liberals. Hope she also confers with citizens of Venezuala, Hong Kong, South Africa, Rhodesia, former Soviet Bloc countries, etc.

Trump is NOT a lock in 2020 without his 2nd Amendment base. (and Liberals won't vote for Trump no matter WHO he sells out).

Just Sayin'

Beck said it best on Friday, if Trump passes Red Flag laws his base will hold their noses to vote for him instead of the democrats. His argument is Trump supporters will lose their passion if he does this.

In the wake of FISA abuse and a long, sorted history of govt abuse vs. US citizens (IRS scandal, DOJ, even the dam EPA), Trump would be an absolute fool to support anything regarding gun control. There is a 0% chance this law will not be abused by (most likely) liberal activist bureaucrats

For those that held their nose and voted for him it would be a deal breaker, the die hard tRrumkins will rationalize it away in seconds.

quote:

Trump has been probing his aides and making calls to lawmakers about what strategy he should adopt on guns, and how it will play with his base.

Behind the scenes: Ivanka Trump spoke last Wednesday to Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.), while he was vacationing in Hawaii, to get an update on the bipartisan background checks bill he proposed with Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Penn.).

The measure, which was initially introduced in 2013 after the Sandy Hook shooting, would expand background checks to nearly all commercial firearm sales.

"She called Manchin and said she was trying to get a sense of what bills are out there," a Manchin aide told Axios. "She had him explain how they drafted the bill, where it stands and what changes needed to be made in order for it to pass."
But she didn't signal a White House position.

The call followed President Trump's own conversations with Manchin last Monday and Tuesday, first reported by the WashPost, in which he told the senator that he wanted legislation before the Senate returns from recess in September.
Trump exploring strategy he should adopt on guns, and how it will play with his base "doesn't translate to coming for your guns," does it?

Fact finding would seem prudent in light of McConnell announcing reinstitution of the ""assault weapons"" ban will be "front and center" when the Senate reconvenes. Wouldn't it?

Don't be a pussy, first of all

Second, red flags with due process is not a violation of 2A, though I doubt it happens

Bad.......Taking their time to prosecute fisa, u-1 etc. in a slow manner.

Bad.......running up quick-like on my second amendment rights.


Funny how all the things we want “take time” while they move with a quickness to limit our freedoms or tax us.



That wouldn’t bode well for my vote. He’s smarter than this and won’t allow it.

I don't believe anything will happen under DJT as far as the second amendment goes. However here is a thought. If any of the Dems get elected you know for a FACT they will be coming after the second amendment and your guns!

No matter what happens here best course of action is to vote DJT 2020

I am not a single issue voter so this would not prevent me from voting for Trump. But, I don't care who passes or signs a gun control law, I ain't never giving mine up.

But wait... "4d chess" right... SDVTiger and others? Trump is self torpedoing his re-election chances with this charade and I don't understand why. Ivanka needs to GTFO.

I am afraid 2nd amendment is his achilles heel. I he does something besides Red Flag and better background checks, which if done properly, I am in favor of, he is going to cause a stay home effect that could destroy him at the ballot box.

Oh, sure, lets get back at Trump by allowing a democrat to get elected who will push even stricter gun control while stacking the Supreme Court with liberals.

Any idiot who stays home or votes against Trump is equally to blame when the real gun laws kick in.
