Trump has just announced thanks to Gun Owners America that they are going to reconsider the Biden era frame and receiver rule. Is this a shock? Should we have freaked out last week? Well, we’re going to talk about it because as I said last week in another video, I told you so. [Watch]
If so, great, but where I come from, “going to reconsider” doesn’t mean “will,” “may” can also mean “may not,” and we should all be hearing this in an unequivocal announcement from the administration, not parceled out to a select few supportive influencers.
Sorry if my first impression is that this sounds like an electioneering tactic from someone skilled at telling gun owners what they want to hear, but he’s been playing this game on us for years, so everyone will have to forgive me if I suspect this is more of the same — and if he does do it, it will be more out of manipulation than sincere conviction.
Change my mind.
