Except he wouldn’t. Reagan was an actor reading a teleprompter (and much like Dubya and Drumpf) really didn’t have positions or politics of his own. Just another fucking sock-puppet. Now if you also had one of Reagan’s “handlers” rise from the grave and tell Reagan’s corpse to go on a rampage over this, you might have something.

I think that for the gun industry/lobby it is all about the money, but it is about hatred, fear, and revulsion of the outgroup for the rank and file. Most businesses (even ones riddled with MAGA) would happily sell their wares to trans, browns, gays, muslims, etc. out of one side of their mouth, while decrying these groups and their rights out of the other side.
