One thing t hat concerns me, is all this SUPPORT you see by the public, polls etc, for legislative action for legislation thats not even written

That should be a huge concern to people and shows how shallow those polled are

Do you support gun control ?
YES
wait, what gun control ?

Do you support universal bg check
YES

wait, what does that mean, is here a test, a probe, a review, a bg check of my elementary school pals

more and more this admin and their stenographer pool (press) just throw stuff out there with zero details behind it, just a title, and then poll it for support

strategy of manipulators

I wonder how he'll interpret the numbers... I suspect that since he is a member of the "Progressive Caucus," his ability to analyze patterns and cause/effect relationships is severely impaired.

He'll say that obviously the results were skewed by a DoS from a right wing fringe group.
