I’ve been asking this for days and have not gotten a clear answer in what way is the DNC fighting the candidate put forth to the generals by the DNC?

Ah yes, by the DNC you meant a current 3rd party who served one two year term over 15 years ago before being forced out for ethics violations.
It all makes sense now.

I’m sure I’ll be back next week with another.
the fate of this country is ultimately in the hands of the people, not the dems or republicans. we can bitch about who’s not doing the right thing or we can do it ourselves.
arm yourself. stop waiting on someone else to fix it.
Can’t arm myself… my state requires I pay a tax… do a background check that takes about a day… then do the same background check but it takes a few days to a few weeks… then I have to wait 30 business days which is like 3 months… oh and I need live fire training where I have to fire a minimum of 50 rounds which each round is taxed and I am given a pass/fail status by an old fudd who thinks I should never handle a firearm because I’m a registered Democrat… eventually I get my firearm if my licensed dealer hasn’t fucked up the paperwork or isnt on another holiday… BUT I am severely limited in my choices as nearly every good personal defense firearm is banned either by name or because it has a useful feature like threaded barrels to mount a suppressor which will help with my hearing loss as I age… I probably won’t get what I want either because the standard mag comes with a capacity of 11 or more rounds…
But yes! Lets arm ourselves!
None of what you wrote indicates that you can’t arm yourself - you’ve just outlined reasons why you can’t be assed to do it and it sure sounds hyperbolized to me. For example, your excuse of an old fudd thinking you shouldn’t be armed just for being a registered Democrat… why the hell would you just disclose that information when it’s not relevant to what you’d be doing at all. Go in, take your shots, get your paperwork, and leave. You don’t need to get into your personal politics.
You make it sound like going through a vetting process is such an inconvenience. The only real hindrance you’ve outlined is costs. The comment reads like pure defeatist.
