Tree of Knowledge 833 Posted August 12, 2020 Are you preparing for a God-forbid Biden victory in November? If so, what are you doing and when? These are obvious but any other ideas? 1) Getting out of the stock market. How soon? 2) Purchasing guns and ammo? 3) Securing your property and other valuables. Home security improvements, safes, etc. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Home security improvements, safes, etc. I would think the people who are paranoid about losing guns and ammo are already fully stocked up. How many big spending sprees on guns and ammo have happened in the last 20 years? People did it out of fear of Obama taking guns away. They've been doing it all year because of the pandemic and the riots. The people who are not stocked up on guns and ammo already are most likely not the type of people who would ever own a gun.

The Elevator Killer 497 Posted August 12, 2020 Nothing. The far left is already attacking the VP pick. I don't see Biden/Harris making people want to go vote. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drobeski 3,061 Posted August 12, 2020 Biden is going to get crushed, so preparing is even more important. We've seen how violent and destructive the left is during their temper tantrums....magnify that by 1000 when Trump, with the help of good Americans crushes them again. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gladiators 1,904 Posted August 12, 2020 No prepping on my end. I have guns/ammo and a large safe. I have some extra cash on hand. Not pulling out of investments. From a business perspective, I'll be mentally preparing for reduced revenue/profits if Biden wins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know several guys that have never been gun guys that are now members at shooting ranges due to the Antifa and BLM Insurrections and prepping to protect their families and property.

listen2me 23 1,542 Posted August 12, 2020 Ill buy stuff I need or want now in the Trump economy. Ill anticipate more tax dollars will go to the bling people. Prices will go up in a Biden economy. As for guns I dont need them. I dont live in a wacko urban area. Not sure why many of you do. The stuff I see on twitters makes my blood boil. But I dont have to deal with any of it. Yet anyway.

FlyinHeadlock 459 Posted August 12, 2020 Same thing I do with every President. Not give a sh1t and create my own circumstances. If they plan is to tax me more ways around it. Open a quasi "green" farm business and declare it bankrupt for a tax credit. I'll probably get more of a tax break than Trump gave me. Either that or a solar panel business that goes belly up every year on paper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now the VP is a bigger threat, she stated during her Presidential run that if elected she would give congress 100 days to pass meaningful gun control legislation or would do it by EO. I expect sales to go up. who mentioned Biden as a reason, I missed it. I think the lack of law and order is the major reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
