The Democrats have taken control of the House of
Representatives for the first time in 8 years, and they have announced a few
priorities:
- Investigate Trump
- Impeach Trump
- Gun Control
This entire agenda is disingenuous crap.
Let’s look at the Gun Control agenda as an
example.
A number of leading Democrats are insisting that Gun Control
will be at the top of their agenda in the new Congress. According the the Wall Street Journal, '
There are a few problems with this ambitious agenda, not the
least of which is that they have no intention of actually doing anything.
Trump is President and the Republicans control the
Senate. No anti-gun legislation stands
a chance of being passed by the Senate and Trump. Democratic caterwauling about guns is pure
grandstanding.
Remember, when the Obama-era Democrats controlled both
Houses and the Presidency with filibuster-proof majorities, they did not pass a single gun control law. Not one.
Democrats are fundamentally un-serious about gun
control. When they had the chance to
pass laws, they did nothing. They only
make noise about gun control when they are not a risk of actually having to
vote on legislation.
They think that they can use gun control as a club to wield
against Republicans for the next two years.
They have no intention of actually making law.
