Pirro: "You bring a gun into the District, you mark my words, you're going to jail. I don't care if you have a license in another district and I don't care if you're a law abiding law owner somewhere else. You bring a gun into this District, count on going to jail. And that makes all the difference"

So, Trump and his people are coming out against the 2nd Amendment in advance of the November elections.

Not a question. A statement.

Gee. I knew of a time, far less than a year ago, when statements like that would cause MAGA to piss its knickers.

I said from the beginning that this administration would be the most anti-2A administration of our lifetimes.

DC has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the nation.

What is not surprising is how fast these 2A god warriors rush to strict gun control when it serves them.

School kids are still free to get gunned down in their classrooms.

If it weren't for hypocrisy the GOP would stand for nothing at all.

Trump is building a super bunker under the White House.

The National Guard are still patrolling the streets of DC.

The 2nd amendment is no longer valid in DC.

Trump is openly discussing ways Republicans can steal the midterms.

This country lasted 249 years.

It had a good run.

In three years, either Trump will die of a massive stroke/MI or else the country will be in anarchy.
Right now (checking the tip sheet), Vegas has it 50/50.

Who wants to get paaaaaaaid for executing their constitutionally protected right?

Maybe executing isn't the right word...

Pirro appears to walk back threats to arrest gun owners in DC

... But less than 24 hours later, Pirro attempted to reframe her earlier comments, writing in a social media post that she is "a proud supporter of the Second Amendment."...

NRA was right. They want our guns. NRA was just wrong about which party it was.

More like wrong for thinking it was only 1 party.
