Isn't Trump, and his antics, exactly why the 2nd Amendment addicts

claim that we need firearms?

They always cite "tyranny" as a reason to protect us from the "gubment".

What are they doing to protect us from Trump and the GOP Senate tyranny?

Asking for a friend...

1. They don't recognize what Trump is doing as "tyranny."

To them, all authoritarian governments are leftists.

2. That used to be their argument.

Now they are more concerned about socialists in their bushes and transgenders in bathrooms.

14. White people will soon be the minority of the total population.

Since the settlement of Jamestown in 1607 and the start of the Colonial period, the U.S. has been predominantly white.

But the white share of the U.S. population has been dropping, from a little under 90% in 1950 to 60% in 2018. It will likely drop below 50% in another 25 years.
White nationalists want America to be white again. But this will never happen. America is on its way to becoming predominantly nonwhite.

4. They were ready to go after Obama for making executive orders they called

that tyranny. Now Trump has done nothing but executive orders for 3 years and it is OK.

5. No

The only "tyranny" they are talking about is taking their guns.

Y'see, they need the guns to stop the government from taking their guns...

7. Constitution

It's ironic, because the only thing that guarantees their right to bears arms is the Constitution. Thanks to tRump, we no longer have one.

8. Tyranny is about government helping Black people, Brown people, Women, and other minorities.

Tyranny is not using government power to protect the wealthy, White, Christian order.

11. Guns in private hands tend to support authoritarians.

Whether its, Hispanics, Blacks, or Asians, guns in private hands have been used to enforce oppressive government regulations and laws against them.

How are you going to keep slaves in the field without a gun?

I'm not even kidding. They see Trump as the only guy willing to name the beast and go right at it.

13. Nothing

When they speak of tyranny they are referring to the left. They are scared the left will take away their guns and apply some sanity to their lives.

The Trump administration supports those second amendment solutions so how can they possibly be tyrants?
