Bump Stock Confiscation....Trump EO

[Xpxsquirrel]

If the Republican party is so in favor of second amendment why is this happening. Further why did the Republican controlled Senate squash the national handgun reciprocity, that was passed in the house. Ive been believing that neither party truly gives a shit about us for a while. The evidence keeps just piling up.

60 votes?

60 votes?

Many don’t get that. A simple majority in the Senate does not allow you to pass legislation.

They only need a majority to put it on Trump's desk. There are more than 50 Republicans in Senate. 60 would only be needed to pass if the president were to veto.

The republican/ democratic system is a one party dictatorship.
The only party should be, we the people.

Two thirds (67 votes) to override a veto

Has anyone ever heard of the Nuclear Option? And please don't say that can only used for SCOTUS nominations. That is incorrect.

Getting to the point where it just doesn't fuckin matter anymore.

Legal challenges for this one look promising. Expect at least half the Circuits to say OK, the other half to to say not OK, and SCOTUS to not take the case.

Not being a dick but WTF looks promising ..... seriously.
This is far beyond a political standpoint.
We the people are simply toast without unity.

Legal challenges based on the fact this ban is not a law but an administrative ruling, and one unsupported by the law as written.
