If only this political cartoon was based in reality, for the GOP knows if they did pass gun control legislation they would lose their base, and without their Christian Evangelical, gun enthusiast, uneducated base they would be just a bunch of millionaires on their private golf courses. They could care less about guns, abortion, immigration, gays, Muslims or Jesus, they care about only one thing, reducing taxes and regulations to make themselves wealthier than the already are.
It also must be said in defense of congressional Republicans on this gun issue is that though 90% of Americans want reasonable gun controls that is a false number when it factors in Republican gerrymandered congressional districts where guns and Bud are about the only things Republican primary voters have going for them, and to restrict either would cause would them to primary’d out in a landslide. Is defeating gerrymandering the key to sanity? Which can be fixed.
