You guys will re-elect him.
Right before the elections something dramatic happens, resulting in the media making America perform epic mental gymnastics resulting in a lot of votes for Trump and some good ole republican voter fraud will seal the deal."
Right in time the media will wrangle public opinion into reelection and all foreigners will look in astonishment at how un-credible the media circus looks from abroad.
It will hit you guys from all sides at once no matter where you look.

Interesting they bring up Christmas shopping, specifically.
Quote:
Retailers must have a holiday-specific plan that gives consumers confidence to purchase from them.
That's my favorite quote from my reading on shopping trends in regards to Covid. Everybody is expecting to make up their losses for the year in a giant holiday bash. What better way to do that than to "relax and buy yourself a present for enduring such a year". Don't worry about the lack of money, just spend some. It's okay, you can admit it. Little bit of debt never hurt anyone.

Since when is the left exclusively anti-gun and the right exclusively pro-gun?
The left even has its own guns, like the AK-47, most popular rifle of the 20th century.

Just like how right wing people are supposed to support drug prohibition, right? 
Nothing inherently hypocritical about accepting some talking points from your preferred political team and rejecting others.

Drug prohibition isn't an expression of prohibition, it's an expression of moral and social control. The point isn;t the drugs, the point is to make people live the "right" way.
So, right wingers don;t necessarily have to support drug prohibition, as long as they support other forms of moral and social control.

I guess my point is that variability of views within some political camp is evidence of nuance more than hypocrisy. If left-leaning person A is anti-gun and left-leaning person B is pro-gun, it would be ridiculous to conclude "Aha! the left is simultaneously pro- and anti-gun, and is therefore hypocritical."
Now if an individual person owned guns while advocating against them, that person certainly would be hypocritical. But the left is a collection of people with varied views. The fact that they are not all in lock-step agreement with each other on everything is not hypocrisy.

Similarly, I don;t think the left is "anti-gun". The left is in favor of maybe the slightest consideration for who has guns, and making sure that gun owners are (a) responsible and (b) competent.
