Gun owners have to vote. There are a few demographics who can make a difference. Gun owners are one of those demographics. Be informed and vote.
The forces pushing in on President Joe Biden, pushing him to quit the 2024 presidential campaign have won. Now all eyes and attention are turned toward Vice President Kamala Harris to pick up the torch. She’s the presumptive Democratic nominee until things are finalized at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago next month, but all signs point to her coronation as the Democratic candidate to challenge Republican nominee and former President Donald Trump in November.
Sure, there are some significant differences between President Biden and Vice President Harris. Most notably age, gender and race, but on policies – specifically the Second Amendment – Vice President Harris owns the entire failed and horrendous record she helped push along during the three and a half years of the Biden administration. And she could be even worse.
From the president deeming the entire firearm industry – all 384,000 hardworking and proud Americans employed in it – as the “enemy” in 2019, to his gun control executive actions and the creation of the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention (headed up by Vice President Harris herself) to push gun control propaganda and all the way to repeating his call to ban the most popular-selling centerfire semiautomatic rifle in the country following a failed assassination attempt on former President Trump by a disturbed individual not two weeks ago, Vice President Harris has been in lockstep with President Biden with no daylight in between.
Gun Rights ‘Astroturf’ and a ‘Façade’
It’s astonishing to think that Vice President Harris is on the cusp of being elevated to the Democratic nominee for President of the United States without ever receiving a single vote in a Democratic primary election for president. Remember, following a disastrous primary debate and national polling that placed her around 1 percent, she dropped her own 2019 candidacy to be president before the Iowa caucuses and first primary elections.
