At the end of the day, people will vote for a candidate based on single issues such as tax cuts or abortion views or, unfortunately, gun control. At the moment, there really are not enough people who view implementing gun control as a make-or-break issue, certainly not compared to the number of people who vote based on preventing gun control. The GOP have done a sickeningly good job of making enough people believe that gun control laws will be the beginning of the end of America. This is the price all too many are willing to pay. They feel like it won't happen to them or someone they love and even if it did, they'd be ready. It's disgusting.
