President Donald Trump's sons Eric and Don Junior are very avid hunters.
biden's inappropriately named son Hunter is into drugs and loose women instead. He even abandoned his own daughter. Obviously President Trump is more likely to support hunting, trapping and fishing, as he did in his first term, than biden who tried to limit and prevent hunting, trapping and fishing in his current term.

Ok. Everyone deserves their dreams. Sometimes when I see “celebrities” or people that come from money with exotic big game animals that they have hunted, I am not impressed. Trying to see both sides of the coin.

Normally I think they paid a guide to take them out that did all the work, scouting, ECT them they shoot it take some pictures then head back to the lodge for drinks and cigars while the guid handels gutting and caping the animals. So are they really hunters or people with money that pay hunters to take them out and put them in the place to do the shooting is always my question?
Also because someone with money likes to shoot and has guns does not mean they like the idea of everyone having the same access to guns but like the restrictions as long as it doesn't apply to them.
I'm always cautious and skeptical. One thanks for sure Biden about everything anti-American as you can get. Maybe the election will be such a blow out that they can't deny trumps when this year.

Canned, or not. Trophy collectors, it’s their gig. Remember they will be on our side and have the money to donate to help our legal fights to keep trapping / coyote hunts alive. Look at all the other rich donating to stop our pursuits.
Nice to see these guys kill stuff.

Don Junior says, "The discipline, the good times, the bond that I've had in a hunting camp, around a campfire, on a shooting range, all of those things as well as the discipline and patience it takes to become a competitive shooter, those are all values I want to pass on to my kids."
"I want to make sure they get them, so I want to make sure to preserve these things for my kids and for their kids after them."
"For this to go on and for us to have these same experiences with our families, be a mentor to someone," Trump Jr. said. "Take a young kid out. Take a woman out. Make sure that everyone experiences the great outdoors the way we've all been lucky to experience it. That's the only way this is going to survive the next generation."
"We're coming to a critical time in this country," Trump Jr. said. "There's a lot of things that are going wrong. Our traditions are being attacked. The people who are going to try to take away our rights, our access to land, our ability to own firearms and carry them … our ability to hunt and fish … those people, they love the politics game. They love when you sit at home and pretend you don't want to play, because they're going to take advantage of that."

These guys are hunters , they work and like many don’t have the time to scout out areas for big game . Africa you have a professional hunter or you don’t go . When I’ve elk hunted Wyoming years ago you couldn’t be on public ground as a non resident by yourself without a resident or guide ( correct me if I’m wrong ) . I never criticize a fellow hunter because what you may refer to a canned hunt could very well be said by someone who solely hunts public ground compared to someone who hunts private ground. Many think private ground is easy but it’s not all created equal just my two cents. At least these guys are on our side and not against us like the Biden entourage

Im glad to see these guys like to hunt. As for the assumption that their passion for outdoors equates to keeping trapping rights, Im not so sure that is a safe bet. There are a BUNCH of hunters and avid outdoorsman who would be perfectly happy to see trapping disappear in my opinion. We are still the low activity on the totem pole.

This is what I was getting at but beyond just trapping. Just because people like an active doesn't mean that want or support the common people being able to do the same activities. There are plenty of examples of rules for the and not for me. Like Congress and insider trading. They love it but it's illegal if we would do the same.
Also just because my son says something does not mean he is speaking for me.
It's very nice to see the Trumps taking part in hunting. Sure beats the crack and (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) house. I believe it's dangerous to believe BECAUSE they do it means they are 100% on my team no matter how much I would love to believe so.

Go on a Guided hunt Yourself BEFORE you bash a guide hunter
Many States Forbid a Non resident from hunting Without a guide.

Interestingly enough I heard a podcast yesterday in which Eric credited their grandfather with Kindling & encouraging their hunting background.
Not meant as a knock against Donald, just affirmation that grandparents are pretty important to youngsters.
Yup, and parents that realize the importance of grandparents in a kids life are pretty cool too.
Yes. As busy as the parents of my grandkids are just trying too keep things rolling, it looks like I will be taking 4 granddaughters hunting. Not sure how grannie will feel about 4 youth shotgun purchases, but ya gotta have equipment

330 you take that as bashing a guided hunter? It's exactly how a lot of the money people hunt. They have little to no hunting shill and outdoor knowledge and are not interested in learning or doing any of the work. Now a lot does not mean all but rather a large % of them. And what makes you think I have not been in a guided hunt?
