Trump would take US citizens guns in a heartbeat to secure his own power if he believed for a second he could get away with it. Nearly every republican would. There's absolutely no reason they want an armed population.
I dunno about that. Republicans are far more likely to support the 2nd Amendment than Democrats. This is why Republican towns have guns while Democrat cities don't. Ironic then, that Democrat cities are plagued by crime.
Trump is an alt-right, meaning he shares many traits with the left. And yes, COVID was an absolute display of authoritarian regime.
Mao's Great Famine is an obvious example of a tyranny that would have been made worse by civilians being armed: in all likelihood, more sparrows would end up being killed, the invasion of the grasshoppers would be worse, and the famine would be worse.
That's alot of nonsense. I don't know about The Great Famine in particular, but it was likely blamed on grasshoppers when the actual problem, as in Russia, was the state policy. Watch the film Bitter Harvest (there are a few of them, and no, I do not know which year). It depicts Russian action I think against Ukraine's farmers. Basically, communist system claimed the farmers were rich (because they owned land for the feeding of the population), they raided even what the farmers had to live on, in some cases killing them for what they had. Hmmmm, what happens when you have nobody competent willing to grow crops? Oh right, a famine. Same thing happened in Zimbabwe. Black power (and socialism to some degree) hired unskilled blacks to farm, taking land from skilled whites. In bizarre irony, if any blacks were too good at farming, their land was taken too. I shit you not. Look up "Mugabe land reform".
