Can we legalize suppressors now?

Not everyone is willing to uproot their families, leave family behind, leave good jobs, good climate, and geography. I’d love to leave but my wife does not. The other states don’t want us and honestly can’t blame em. Ca is the greatest state in the country but has the worst politics. It’s a crap shoot. Hopefully things will get so bad in LA and SF that the people are obligated to abandon the bullshit policies they are tied to.
I doubt things in CA will change anytime soon but the amount of red that appeared during the election this year was impressive. Hopefully you guys can keep moving in that direction.

Didn't forget it. It didn't effect me. I was paying for everyone at home and work's insurance already. I'd actually welcome legislation choking heath insurance providers tomorrow.
I meant he did nothing on gun control issues.
It affected everyone to some extent. Probably the biggest/best thing it did was, allowed pre-existing conditions to NOT affect your ability to get healthcare. Something Trump was against, at the time - saying it would hurt insurance companies to force them to cover people.

Now, Trump praises the pre-existing condition law, as his idea - after not changing the healthcare system at all...

anyways - relevant to OP. Nah nothin' is gonna happen, except maybe additional executive order regulation from Trump if 'bad' things start to happen.

The pre-existing condition mandate helped many of my clients and neighbors. Like I said before, I voted for Obama twice. He was harmless. McCain was a warmonger and Romney was a complete chameleon. Didn't trust him at all.

Funny, Romney is one of the few who did not say one thing about the current president elect in early 2016, then change his tune once the nomination was clinched, nor after the election. Hard to take calling him a chameleon seriously at this point, weather or not one agrees with him.

Cannot say the same about most Republicans in office today who had a platform in 2016.

Of course, it sounds (could be wrong) like your positions have also changed to an extent given you voted for Obama, sometimes we start out wrong and the change is needed, but it undercuts condemning others as a chameleon.

I vote on the candidates, not the party

Romney voted to impeach Trump.
I'd vote for Bill Clinton in 2028 if his mind still worked and he could run. Romney is the definition of RINO...but often he played conservative.

My point. I'm not going to get into whether Romney was right or wrong, but his position stayed consistent to his personal cost. I respect that, even in people I disagree with.

I was in the same room when Marco Rubio called Trump a con man in 2016, either he was knowingly slandering an opponent, was speaking without having taken the time to educate himself, or decided he was fine with having a con man in office, because he changed his tune shortly after. None of those three options are respectable.
