We now have the extreme polar opposites:

Trump, who makes promises and does everything within the power of his office to keep them,

and the Democrat nutjobs, who are promising the moon -- complete with Unicorns and ice cream for life -- with no intention (or plan) to deliver on any of it.

A Dem in the White House had the entire Congress ready to do his bidding for 2 years, yet no immigration reform.  No amnesty.  No free college.  No student loan debt forgiveness.

If these promises were so easy to keep, wouldn't the Dems, many of whom are in Congress and running for the Dem nomination in 2020, have already done all of this?

I hope the voters are smarter than these hucksters make them out to be.

"I went to a gun show without cameras following and asked a guy buying an AR if he would surrender his "assault rifle" for the greater good and he said yes".

Things that didn't happen for $800 please Alex.

Wait isn't he a felon?  If yes, then what's he doing at a gun show?

Finally an honest Democrat!
Why do you think Hawaii,  a Democrat
controlled state has universal gun registration?
It will happen here.  Especially if Josh Green
ever gets elected governor.
It will get interesting.

Same reason he's live streaming himself at the barber, the dentist and pretending to change a tire:  He's an attention whore.

It just occurred to me that beto may be playing the rodeo clown.

My guess is he believed his own press.  When he opposed Ted Cruz last election, the press made him out to be the second coming.  That was the media's attempt to regain their title of "king maker" by propping up a fool as a serious candidate.

Now, he thinks the things he saw on the news about himself back then are true.  While Vanity Fair tried to continue selling him to the public, the rest of the media seems to have lost that tingle down their proverbial leg.

Only one question...

Beto O’Rourke: Texans Want to Give Up Their AR-15s

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/09/14/beto-orourke-texans-want-to-give-up-their-ar-15s/

Democrat presidential hopeful Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke claims Texans who own AR-15s are wanting to give them up. The Hill quoted O’Rourke saying:

But even from those Texans who own AR-15s, they’ve told me this themselves, “I don’t need this. I don’t need it to hunt, I don’t need it to protect myself. It was fun to use. I like taking it out to the range, but if giving this back, or cutting it to pieces, or selling it to the government helps to keep us safer, then by all means let’s do it.”

* * * * *
So the question is: Was O'Rourke conversing with Texans committed to mental institutions, or not? I'd guess 100% mental institutionalized Texans. Or, one other possibility: he is totally making shit up.

Is there any evidence that banning all assault weapons, not just AR-15s, has any impact on crime? 

There must be, or Beta would not be making the claim that a ban would "help keep us safer".

How about a 2004 report from the University of Pennsylvania Jerry Lee Center of Criminality?

(Note:  "LCM" = Large Capacity Magazine)
Quote

The Ban’s Reauthorization or Expiration Could Affect Gunshot Victimizations, But Predictions are Tenuous 

    • Should it be renewed, the ban’s effects on gun violence are likely to be small at best and perhaps too small
      for reliable measurement.  AWs were rarely used in gun crimes even before the ban.  LCMs are involved in
      a more substantial share of gun crimes, but it is not clear how often the outcomes of gun attacks depend on
      the ability of offenders to fire more than ten shots (the current magazine capacity limit) without reloading.

Even the author of a current background check bill says "no".

Joe Manchin: Beto O’Rourke ‘Not Taking My Guns Away’

On Wednesday Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) addressed Robert “Beto” O’Rourke’s confiscatory push on AR-15s and made clear, “[He’s] not taking my guns away from me.”
Manchin then asked for someone to deliver that message to O’Rourke.

The Wall Street Journal’s Lindsey Wise tweeted:
