But thank god (pun intended) they have little to no influence on voters opinion.<br /><br />As for Americans gun obsession, I'd really like to see the rightwing gun nuts to make true on their harebrained idea about the 2nd amendment being there to overthrow a tyrannical government (AKA one whose policies they don't agree with).<br />Yeah right, armed with rifles and pistols against a military with tanks, artillery, attack helicopters, drones, etc.<br />After all, they had a pretty good foretaste in 1993.<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rbhq89xFmMc<br /><br />This would have 2 beneficial consequences:<br /><br />1.

He makes alot of empty boasts that are not meant to be taken literally. This is fine for a business magnate, not so much for a President. Trump never bothered to change his mannerisms...<br /><br />Since Germans take everything literally, they find him to be a singularly infuriating figure, and are utterly at a loss for why other nationalitys do not share their sentiments. It is a cultural blindspot for them.<br /><br /><br />As for Mr Coles vacuous assertion. Trumps supporters do not subscribe to the obviously false notion that all these experts intentionally got into their careers with the express intent to deceive the public. Rather, they believe that these experts are stuck in a false political paradigm that is called TDS - Trump Derangement Syndrome. This is mainly the product of a biased and disingenuous media establishment.kesler12https://www.blogger.com/profile/06730943788519488679noreply@blogger.com
