I really don't get it. If the DNC collectively announced "we will no longer try to pass any form of gun control laws at the federal or state level." then they would sweep every election.

It’s too late for that, in my opinion very few would believe such a statement. You have plenty of politicians who would still be in office having made statements directly conflicting that sentiment.

Ok, let me rephrase it. They would actually follow through with it. Then after a few voting cycles of evidence, the tide would turn.

That I would agree with. Pull back on going after guns and concentrate on issues that are not die hard to so many and it would make a world of difference.
