A "behind" the stats look (with stats so LOL) at the election: swing states related

OK here's the election in a nutshell (yeah my opinion)
1 candidate is pro-2nd amendment and the other isn't
Will this have a significant impact on the election? IMO yes

According to FBI data, the bureau processed 93% more background checks nationwide from March through July this year as compared with the same period the previous year. And while the classification of a "swing state" varies and is debatable, the Cook Political Report – as cited last month by the U.S. State Department –"sees Arizona, Florida, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin as toss-ups," potentially along with New Hampshire and North Carolina

The GOP will win the vast majority of the vote.
Unfortunately, the Democrats are stuffing the mailboxes!
Vote! And get others to vote! For the children!

Encouraging yes, but even some old school democrats are buying guns at a really high rate this year with everything going on
This very well could mean these old school democrats will be switching to Trump in large numbers (Plenty of statistics that point to that), but you never know. If they had any common sense, they would at least be heavily weighing it right about now since Dems have become even more outspoken about gun bans recently.
It’s sad how little the average American voter pays attention and searches for facts before pulling the lever for a candidate

This will not be enough to outweigh the massive mail in voting the dems are doing. Trump is done for unless some type of federal action stops the unsolicited mail ballots

This is definitely something Trump should hammer in the debates. Put Joe on the spot in regards to his stance on guns.

FIFY
There is only one pro-2a candidate in this race.
Jo Jorgensen, the Libertarian nominee for President, is openly pro-gun and totally pro-freedom. She believes that the right to own property is a natural human right, and that self-defense is a natural human right, and that both are supposed to be protected by the US Constitution. She has said on the record that she would abolish the ATF, the agency which enforces gun control for the federal government. She does not believe that there should be any restrictions on peaceful gun owners. However, Jorgensen believes in strong justice for those who harm people or their property. In general Libertarians support gun rights and do not believe that politicians should restrict the ownership or use of firearms by civilians.
Donald Trump, the incumbent Republican president ran on a strong pro-gun platform, but has since disappointed many gun owners and pro-freedom voters. Since taking office, his ATF has banned bump stocks without legislative consent, has essentially made the case for banning all firearms, and is now seemingly preparing to ban many gun parts. Trump has also said on the record that he supports red flag laws, famously saying, “Take the guns first, go through due process second”. Trump recently appointed the anti-gun lawyer, William Barr, to be his Attorney General. Barr oversaw the Ruby Ridge incident, the most horrible anti-gun travesty in US history when he was AG under Bush in 1992. Trump has also gone on record saying that he does not like silencers, accessories which make firearms slightly less deafening to the shooter and people nearby.
