Eric Swalwell Is Either Pro-Life, Or Really, REALLY Stupid

As you may remember, protential 2020 Democratic nominee Eric Swalwell recently said that there’s NO USE in gun owners fighting tyranny, because HE WOULD JUST NUKE THEM.

No, I’m not kidding.

Anyway… that little comment landed him on the cover of NRA magazine:

Living in the @NRA’s head & on the cover of their magazine! But they mischaracterized my position. My plan to ban assault weapons is not “hollow.” It’s very real & the public is with me.

And sorry, the “1st Freedom” is not unregulated gun ownership. It’s life. #EnoughIsEnough pic.twitter.com/C8GFfxN95C

WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT… hold up?

You’re pro-life now, Swalwell?

THIS IS WELCOME NEWS!

So you’re pro life when will you announce you want to defund Planned parenthood

#1 freedom is life? Going after the pro-life vote now? Interesting.

WELL…SORTA:

Only when he's not threatening to nuke gun owners and voting to fund Planned Parenthood

But let’s set ONE thing straight here, shall we?

No one mischaracterized your position, you brought up the issue of nuclear weapons against gun owner. For your edification gun ownership is regulated and gun ownership is cover by the 2 Amendment. Your plan who do you think you are? The way you conduct yourself is questionable

“Questionable” is generous.

I’d call it MORONIC.
