So I guess now we're going to have a gun control election in November

[redgreenandblue]

The rioters have just given Trump something to run on. Great.

1. No, that won't be the issue.

[unblock]

2. it's almost as if republicans had an incentive to loot and riot

but republicans are all about law and order so they would never ever ever do anything that broke the rules.

[BannonsLiver]

3. I very much doubt that

What, are they going to go from getting 97 to getting 99 percent of gun nuts on election day?

Whoopidy doo.

4. The GOP will always try and use guns (god and gays) to get votes

but in November I think it will be....Do you want another 4 more years of Trump. There is a large percentage of white people that love Trump - not only for his rhetoric but also his reality type of leadership. They love drama, nastiness, and divisiveness - it just part of the white people genre.

But I think there are far more people that totally reject him so it is just a question of turnout. IMO, that will be the issue. The one thing that I always have to bring up.....never underestimate the nastiness of white people.....history has shown we do so at our peril.

5. Well, I'm sure that will work out as well as 2000 and 2016

Goddammit. I'm sick and tired of losing because of this issue.

6. I am thinking it will be

A save our country and constitution vote...big time

7. Trump is the only President to talk publicly about unlawfully seizing guns. Would make good ad.

He said something to the effect of "take their guns first, worry about due process later".

When he said that, I thought "This will kick off a shitstorm" but it didn't.

Maybe an ad showing his actual words would be a nice reminder to his "2nd Amendment Types" that he doesn't give a fig about their gun rights.

10. It won't matter, no one will care

The 2A types will just say he changed. They're not wrong either, he has done nothing for gun-control in his 3 1/2 years in office.

8. which rioters have guns?

missed those vids.

[Polybius]

9. Nope, and it would be silly to bring it up

Gun-control has been set back 16 years, like it or not.
