I wasn't a Trump fan, but this guy is insane. Hillary? No thanks. We have to circle the wagons and support Trump the best we can. And like I said this morning, your single vote isn't going to do it. Everyone is going to have to get out of their comfort zone and work some people to get to the polls in November.

Your car better be packed filled with Trump voters when you drive to the polls to go vote. And then go get another load. And another.

Yes but he left because the Speaker backs Trump. Georgie is out of touch with reality and is more concerned with his elitist standing than the Country.

Will has always considered the Second Amendment "unfortunate", and as said so, in print, several times.


I have absolutely no use whatsoever for him. No loss at all, in my mind.

You're reading that wrong. George Will has always referred to the 2nd Amendment as being "Unfortunate" and "Embarrassing" to Liberals and Gun Control Advocates. The 2nd Amendment applies to the individual.....much as the other Amendments. There is little Gun Control Advocates can do to ban individual gun owner rights without repealing the 2nd Amendment. As a conservative Will neither advocates nor supports that.

"Gun control advocates who want to square their policy preferences with the Constitution should squarely face the need to deconstitutionalize the subject by repealing the embarrassing amendment." - George Will

Liberals are currently using the above statement as Will's call for 2nd Amendment repeal. It isn't. It's rather defining the only way Liberals can affect their solution of individual gun control. A position that is identical to the majority of people on this forum.

Trump supporters demonizing Will don't recognize their target has been paraphrasing them for years. 2015 interview with Chris Wallace:

Wallace quoted the NYT, saying, “It is a moral outrage and a national disgrace that people can legally purchase weapons designed specifically to kill with brutal speed and efficiency. These are weapons of war.”

Will responded by first pointing out his belief that “most readers of that editorial—and perhaps the authors of it—think that the weapons in use here, what are called ‘assault weapons,’ fire more than one bullet per pull of the trigger in a constant burst.” He explained that this is not the case. The civilian AR-15 is not a machine gun but a firearm that fires one bullet—and no more—each time the trigger is pulled.

Will then suggested the American people understand these guns better than the NYT does, saying:



'The American people have shown by voting at the polling booth for defenders of the Second Amendment, but also they have voted with their feet by going to gun stores, that what they want is control of their own guns. This year on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, 185,000 Americans got background checks for firearms. That’s a one-day record in this country. So the American people have made clear what they think about the Second Amendment and the usefulness of owning guns."
