GOP hasn’t been pro-gun since before you or I were born. Just because they block (some) of the democrats dumbest gun-laws doesn’t make them pro-gun at all.
That’s an interesting take when the NRA can literally schedule a meeting with Trump or other presidents the next day. And which “dumbest” laws are you referring to? You mean things like not wanting people showing signs of mental instability to be able to run out an buy a gun as soon as they’re released from the hospital? Maybe you don’t like the idea of that short waiting period the first time someone buys a firearm? Perhaps it was the law that didn’t allow children to purchase guns (requiring parental consent)? I mean yeah, I can see how the non pro-gun GOP must have been appalled at those ideas.
Also, for curiosity, can you tell me what gun legislation the GOP has NOT blocked?
1994 “Assault” weapon’s ban, 1986 “FOPA” Act. That said pretty much any gun-control law that try’s to get around the 2nd amendment is “dumb” and supporting those kind of blatantly unconstitutional laws should get you banned from federal office for life.
