      Yeah at this point you could slap MAGA in the face with a handwritten and verifiably signed note from Trump himself admitting to anything and everything and they’d find some flimsy excuse because they don’t care and they never will

      Unrelated but I remember Americans always claiming they needed their firearms for tyrannical governments or something along those lines?

        There have been at least two assassination attempts by lone gunmen. That’s the 2nd amendment in action. So far they haven’t been successful, but a couple have tried.

          What do we say about a person who points at an 0 for 2 record as evidence their ideas are working?

            It’s not worked yet. But like, this is the supposed “edge” that he 2nd amendment gives us. Right here. 2 people have tried it. More will surely try, with enough time.
