Thoughts on bump stocks?

You can ban them, but Trump doesn't have the authority to do so through executive means

Has to be done through Congress

Not through the DOJ

If midterms sway in the ***right*** direction, Trump can breeze through his campaign promises and get lots of things done

brb

hmm not sure because even this GOP congress has been deadlocked on his agenda

I wouldn't say a majority of his agenda but yeah definitely some

but still can get a lot more done with a rightwing majority congress than he can with the current congress

but it is a right wing congress

a MAGA congress just isn't gonna happen

The Senate is only rightwing by 10 seats, House though thats a different story.

@IИVДLID CЯΞДΓIФИ , are you right wing?

like a MAGA right winger?

no

Lol

Everyone is MAGA

That’s the beauty of populism, it’s whatever you want it to be

<:NOBULLSHT:432346779082555393>

Conservatism > populism

Populism can be conservatism

Populism is more rooted in the left really

well at least originally

Populism is a state, not an ideology really

It’s a distrust of the status quo and the established classes

I know that

and that's been apart of the left's messaging for A LONG TIME

It’s part of anyone that’s not in the establishment lol

Trump just somehow managed to make it work for him

Where you want the change to go and where the establishment is decides if you’re right or left

Trump isn’t a phenomenon

Which is why I said it's been apart of the left's messaging for decades

No I’m saying trump as a right wing populist isn’t out of place

Trump only seized on it and perfected it to his advantage to win the rust belt states

I guess

It’s not a leftist thing

but stopping the Establishment and the top 1% of the ruling class has been with the left forever

sure populism can be right or left, but the fact remains it's originated from the left

The only argument you could make is that if is slightly more common on the left because the natural state of the status quo is centre right

Populism predates Marxism, capitalism, and certainly predates your definition of the establishment as the “1%”

I said establishment and 1%, didn't make them one and the same
