In the immortal words of Andre the Giant: "You keep using that word. I don't think you know what it means."
In a compromise, each side gives up something in order to get something.
I know what Cornyn gave up: Red flag laws, extended background checks, more money to be wasted.
But what did our side get?
If your answer is that the anti-gun side took slightly less than what they originally wanted, that's not compromise it is capitulation.
Exactly.
If the bill also included nationwide carry reciprocity, then that would be a compromise.
But not a balanced compromise. For expanded background checks and red flags, we would need NFA items deregulated too.
