Ammo, politics, and stocking up

This is something I'm quietly thinking about, and making some moves on.

Here's the basic gist of it, without getting into any histrionics about it (I considered posting on the Political Talk board, but figured this would be the better forum to get good info):

We can buy ammo online, in bulk, for usually a fair amount less than we'll find in local shops (although I think this has led some places to keep their prices down).
We're approaching a presidential election where one candidate, the one that has led in almost every poll, has publically expressed an anti-gun message, and has used the phrase "internet loophole" several times. This candidate has a past history of unfavorable dealings with the firearms industry and market.
While it may be next to impossible for someone to directly affect "guns" head-on due to 2nd Amendment proponents, we've seen the past several years that ammo can be manipulated.

I'm sure we'll see a panic rush on ammo, but what would a wise amount to consider putting away?
What possible restrictions might likely be placed?

I guess internet sales might be clamped down on; I'm wondering if someone should consider a "normal" stash as always, or if they should consider a possible 4 year (length of term) supply instead.
Also wondering about the following- there are occasional press remarks about someone having "huge" amounts (which often might be just a single case bought in bulk; something we've learned to do with Sams and Amazon for other consumable goods). Might there be some move to limit total amounts owned, so that someone who's bought a lot might have to turn it over or risk legal consequences?
Once the market swings, is it likely to rebound in the next election pricewise, or if things get a lot more expensive, will they stay up (we're seeing that now in 22lr to an extent)?

Also, I know a lot of folks reload (I don't)- are there concerns about getting components in the upcoming future... is that possibly threatened too?

For the record, I have self-defense purposes, but I mostly like to shoot at the range. I'm not into prepping for the apocalypse. I'm kind of getting a feel on what to expect, whether I need to change how much I use currently, whether my hobby is seriously threatened etc.

Thanks for any reasoned responses.
