None of the pro-gun bills (national reciprocity, hearing protection), made it through to the POTUS, even when the Repubs controlled both houses of Congress and the the White House.

The POTUS, I am afraid, is not a gun guy and will sell us down the river in a flash for political opportunity. He did that already with the bump stock ban, even when the BATF had previously approved them.

Hard times are coming.

I would disagree to some extent. It is true President Trump is NOT a gun guy. However, his son Donald Trump Jr is (as much as a New Yorker can be). I read this that he didn't think the bump stock thing important. He has tried to do what he said during the campaign (unlike all politicians) and he says he supports the 2nd Amendment.
On the first part the RINOs (in Particular Ryan and McConnell) did NOTHING for the 2nd Amendment or much of anything else when they had the House
Senate and WH.
I agree. Hard times are coming.
