    They just tried to remove the speaker for passing a fuckin budget dude. They’d kidnap his children and murder them on a livestream if he agreed to gun control. That’s the MAGA reality. They’re radicals.

      We can’t do anything about gun violence because people with guns will use violence…

      You’re basically arguing that not only do we negotiate with terrorists, we have to endanger everyone else to keep the terrorists happy

      Did you never learn how it worked out when people tried to appease nazis?

      Spoilers: they never stay appeased long.

        Walk me through the math on gun control. Which GOP reps will support it in the house and senate? Tell me their names. I’ll assume that all dems and independents will go along with it

          In 2021 Dems controlled the House, Senate, and presidency… It wasn’t till 2023 the Republicans had the House.

          So why do you assume it wasn’t done during those two years?

                  Mate, if I’m going to have to keep guessing what you’re talking about and you can’t string 10 words together to explain, this ain’t gonna be productive…

                    Mate, if you don’t know how the Senate works, this isn’t gonna be productive…
