It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.

This is the major skill that Trump lacked. The same drive to get what ou want, but wrapped in a shinny packaging. You need that ‘fighting’ image to get in, it once you have power- and the GOP was in the same boat 4 years ago with complete control, you make your vision he defacto standard and norm. Trump could never pivot his message. Trumps message never transformed from winning to leading- he just liked winning, which is what lead to his losing, oddly enough. I know, the press were an issue getting his message out, but they knew that keeping him arguing would keep him an under 50% president.
The Second Amendment ACKNOWLEDGES our right to own and bear arms that are in common use that can be used for lawful purposes. The arms can be restricted ONLY if subject to historical analogue from the founding era or is dangerous (unsafe) AND unusual.
It's that simple.
Only other fact is that Trump had not only the Democrats to fight against but some of his own party, the Never-Trumper GOPe types. Add those two together and he found it extremely difficult to get most of his agenda through. Is he a crass bull-in-a-china closet? Yep. Can he be annoying? Yep. Does he shoot his mouth off (or Twitter finger) before vetting what he says? Yep.
Did I agree with 90% of what he proposed? Yep. Do I stand 180 degrees from Chine Joe and The 'Ho? Yep. Guess what? Trump wins that one hands down? Not even close.
