"Then there is the age issue. So if the age should be raised to 21 to own a gun, how about raising the age to go to war to 21 and the age of voting to 21?
Makes the same amount of sense to me."

They want voters who vote on emotion, not intellect.
So do you agree with keeping the "mentally ill" from owning guns?
Remember, the former USSR labeled their political opponents as mentally ill and carted them away.
What constitutes mental illness? Depression? If so, you may as well take away all the guns.

Originally posted by @vivifyConservatives tend to hate Trump. He is from New York city, and as such, he has the morality of a narcissistic man-whore. His only appeal is that he is such a dick that he seems impervious to the never ending attacks from the left because they are all a bunch of hoodlums with the power of the establishment behind them.
Which is why conservatives voted for Trump, right?
So no, voting for him was not based upon emotion. It was a calculate move that essentially was an act of desperation.
I don't think that even his children like him.
Conversely, the Dims will probably run someone like Bernie Sanders again. They will run some likeable silver tongued stooge who will bring about more centralized control over the masses as freedoms disappear.

while on the subject, the voting age should be lowered, not raised.
