Well if he goes any farther with wanting to take away our guns without due process he will lose the only people who support him still. This was the last straw, I know some very hardcore conservatives who are very upset. He will back peddle when they poll his base and it shows everyone's upset.
And this is my problem. Trump is not a Conservative he is an opportunist. Why not rally the base to get someone who is a real Conservative in the WH instead of wasting everyone's time. This object in the oval office is an embarrassment on so many levels. He is literally like bird sh#$ just all over the place.

That's funny. He's behaving exactly as all the Liberals here predicted he would and nobody listened.
Trump's biggest probalem is he speaks and has absolutely no idea what he's saying. He isn't educated enough to know how the government works. THAT is why he was not a better choice than Hillary.

Oh, so you think gun owners are the only people that still support the President? Think again.
TDS much? Just can't seem to give credit where credit is due. That's really sad...

Just like he did with DACA.
He's a creature of expediency and lives the moment. He's politically stupid.
Anyone who thinks that this isn’t exactly what will happen hasn’t been paying attention.

Actually, it is.
It's exactly the reason why he is a better choice than Clinton or Pence.
They are all bad news for some group of people. The thing is with Clinton or Pence, they know exactly what they are doing and how to do it without being stopped by red tape.
He doesn't and there is plenty of red tape for him.
Democrat gun owners only deceive themselves when they think nobody's going to take their guns, the anti-gun crowd's goal is to remove the 2nd Amendment from our constitution one step at a time under the pretense of "making everyone safer", and the majority of whom are Democrats, they may not admit it, but I'll quote a Democrat from 1993, AG Janet Reno: "Waiting periods are only a step.
Registration is only a step.
The prohibition of private firearms IS THE GOAL."
And here is the slippery slope... I knew it was coming.
We all saw the news regarding Dicks Sporting Goods not selling the AR anymore. I think its good.
But one thing my ultra right winged father-in-law always fires back on is the guns at Dicks isn't the problem. Rather its the guns on the underground market (pawn shops, Uncle Bob's trunk of his car, etc). Lets say for a second no civilian can purchase a gun at Dicks or other sporting good store. How do we eradicate the secondary market of "bad guys" getting the AR guns? I think it's possible to do this but will be a challenge. Guns is not a problem in Australia, for example. How did they get rid of guns on the secondary market?
The largest number were surrendered in New South Wales — 24,831, while Queensland handed in 16,375; Victoria 9,175 and South Australia 2,825, with Tasmania, Western Australia and the Northern Territory accounting for the rest, officials said according to 9 News.
Last year's amnesty was meant to absorb some of the country's estimated 260,000 illegal guns in circulation – although the figure could be much higher, officials say.
In 2016, Chris Dawson, the head of the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission, said that outlaw biker gangs and Middle Eastern crime groups were thought to be responsible for illegal gun trafficking, according to The Age newspaper
And here is the slippery slope... I knew it was coming.
And yet it is true for many if not most who espouse gun control.
