Biden's Tone on Guns Is How Democrats Lose in 2022
By Joe Cunningham | Jun 24, 2021 9:30 AM ET
One of the best gifts that Joe Biden’s administration could have given the Republicans in the year leading up to midterm elections is a political battle on gun control. Democrats are not good at this fight, and their primary problem is their inability to separate their innermost desires from reality on the ground.
It’s not just that Democrats are getting their inspiration from loud voices on Twitter and ignoring the general electorate. It’s the fact that they can’t help but be as demeaning and scolding as possible on the subject. They aren’t able to talk to the people on about guns, and they certainly can’t have a simple conversation about them. They are always resorting to finger-wagging and expressing disappointment that the American people just don’t understand.
Somewhere along the way, a good number of politicians on both sides forgot that their job was to represent the people, not to assume what’s best for them. And, while it is a bipartisan issue, the Democrats do so from a preachy perspective that not only turns off voters but consistently leads to a spike in gun sales.
