As Twitchy readers know, Rep. Eric Swalwell lost his shiznit on Tucker Carlson earlier this week during a debate on his desire to confiscate guns. It was perhaps the most painful and hilarious segment we’ve seen on Tucker since Kurt Eichenwald’s historic meltdown.
NRATV’s Dan Bongino picked up where Tucker left off …
"Members of Congress, VVIPs, athletes, entertainers and others get to have men and women with #firearms to protect them, while the same said imbeciles up on Capitol Hill want to take away your right to protect your kids. And @RepSwalwell has no answer for that." —@dbongino #NRA pic.twitter.com/yHigyphVuV

And like clockwork, Swalwell started tweeting about his agenda and in essence doubled DOWN on confiscating our guns.
No one is taking away all #firearms. But weapons of war should be left in the hands of soldiers and cops. Or at a gun range. Bet on the @NRA to overlook details to help their agenda. #gunsense #guncontrolnow https://t.co/HmDdao7Up6

Weapons of war.
WTF does that even mean? And leave it to a Dem to only want the cops armed.
These people.
Also these “bodyguards” that @NRA and @TuckerCarlson love pointing at are cops. I would never disarm the police, esp w/ my dad & 2 brothers serving.

Oh yeah, that. Swalwell tried REALLY HARD to pretend that Tucker hates cops, and now he’s trying that same tactic with Dan Bongino.
Dude, walk away. You’ve made a big enough as* of yourself already.
I’ve watched two of your interviews on Tucker Carlson, lying effectively isn’t your strong suit. So yeah, if you had your way you would…and yes Capitol Police assigned to you are body guards! Just like USSS assigned to the POTUS. #gunsense nonsense

Chief. We like that.
Find me an army that uses AR-15's.

Heh.
THAT ONE OVER THERE DOES. Yeah, that one. That’s the ticket.
These "details" are euphemisms for confiscating our firearms.
We are not falling for your dishonesty.And by the way, "weapons of war" is gibberish propaganda. All types of firearms are used by the military. That's another piece of misrepresentation that we won't fall for.

Yup.
1. The AR-15 is not an assault weapon.
2. NO military fields it.If it's "needs" we're after, why do you need to vote, have free speech, etc.?

Swalwell will not win this one.
— Erick ?? (@Erick_TheRed) May 24, 2018
Rep Swallwell. There is no distinction between firearms carried by LEO and the set of terms you employ for your purposes. They're properly all called "small arms", and they do basically the same thing. Stop pandering.

If he stopped pandering he’d have nothing else to do.
