In an appearance on NBC’s Sunday Today early that morning, moderator Chuck Todd lambasted Republicans for being the reason gun control efforts were making no progress since they were in control of the House, Senate, and the Presidency. Todd ratcheted up his anti-gun stance during Meet the Press by promoting radical calls to abolish the right to bears by repealing the Second Amendment. And he did it by highlighting the writings of Bret Stephens, a never-Trumper turned liberal.
“Isn’t the difficulty here legislatively, the constitution,” Todd lamented to his largely liberal panel. “Which is Bret Stephens' point in The New York Times, he’s calling for the repeal of the Second Amendment.” He then emphatically read from the liberal’s talking points:
As much as I oppose such an action it's at least an honest approach. One that implicitly recognizes that the 2nd Amdt does recognize our RKBA.
ReplyDeleteI love to see this approach, as it's a long, hard slog that is doomed to fail. That's why they won't actually go this way. And I'm sure anybody who brings it up like this is immediately counseled by the gun grabbers to shut up and get back in the fold.
