I still worry about Stephen Miller because I worry about Stephen Miller all the time.
But we are in much better hands if it's Holman.
And I'm sure there's no love lost there with Kristi Noem.
And I'm sure he would be just fine seeing her go.
Hoping for Holman.
I think some of them are just trying to bury their head in the sand.
And you're seeing with many others, with the majority of them, in how they're responding to this, that they have loved their gun longer than they have loved Donald Trump.
And that this is the one amendment that they are not willing to play his little games with.
And I think that it...
in particular, hit the gun rights community hard to see an administration official, the first assistant U.S.
attorney, this guy Bill Asaley, who tweeted, if you approach law enforcement with a gun, there is a high likelihood they will be legally justified in shooting you.
And seeing it in black and white doesn't allow you to live in the chaos that the Trump administration thrives on, right?
Because they can't
use their echo chamber against that, because that's just freely available for you to look at and to read.
And then that fact that Trump also posted a photo of Alex Preddy's gun, you know how they removed it and then they took a picture of it, like sitting in the front seat of a car.
And Trump wrote, this is the gunman's gun loaded, parentheses, with two additional full magazines, but we haven't seen the magazines.
And it says, and ready to go.
What is that all about?
I think that having the tangible evidence of how this administration actually views the Second Amendment when they please is what really felt threatening to so many people in the conservative party, the gun rights activists, but also just the regular Trump supporters.
And they've been posting videos all over social media saying, I voted for Trump three times.
