I think those companies hold a lot of stock in his main platform.

Heh. It looks like Vanguard is the #1 shareholder.

Seems Kyle Kashuv, the smart Parkland kid, has some news for the little tyrant.

Jesus H Christ. Vanguards PR team appears to be folding this morning, "holding meetings with gunmakers". I'm going to figure out which contact choice to use to send them a harshly worded missive regarding what I, as a stockholder, think of them getting involved here. They should either have said "we don't mix investing and politics", or kept their mouth shut.

The stupid thing is, that Hogg's handlers don't seem to understand, is that a large part of "gun holdings" are in passive index funds. Are they going to shut down the entire DOW? These two companies are only the "largest holders" of gun stocks because they are the largest investment companies. Every equity management company out there "holds gun stocks" because they all carry index funds.

I'm very disappointed in Vanguard's kneejerk response, especially after what their CEO said not that long ago. "Kneejerk" is not a word I want to associate with the firm that handles my money.

I just called Vanguard and gave them my thoughts.

The lady on the phone said there was no change in policy towards guns; I would recommend everyone with a vanguard account call and give them your opinion. She said she would pass on my message.

While I'd like to say "unbelievable," in today's world it's not only believable, it's absolutely predictable.

I'm mildly surprised that the title isn't something like "My Fight"

Yes, it does. And since I am a NRA member I will use red all over the place.

"My fight."

Funny how I've been thinking along parallel lines.

How old do you have to be in California to get into a beer-hall?

He's in the middle of a cross country bus tour right now. They are in Vegas today, and heading to CA.

Is that the tour Utah Gun Exchange is following around in their MRAP?

I can't imagine even the most hard-core Trump supporter would be behind cancelling elections.

Does Hogg not realize that support for Trump in the legislature is not total or even close to it among republicans?

An aside from his own appointees, and likely not even them, there is no way the bureaucracy would go along with it.

This one might earn him a visit from the Secret Service.

Brad Johnson · « **Reply #97 on:** July 23, 2018, 05:37:37 PM »

Prolly no. He's just parroting back a tweet from POTUS, only with words reversed. It will definitely get another "watch him" star on his Secret Service folder, though.

The little turd is gonna really stick his foot in it some day. I hope there's still enough media attention on him to catch it live.
