Representative Eric Swalwell (D-CA) on Monday announced his intention for running for president on "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert."
Not everyone was excited about the what they saw. In fact, Swalwell has made a name for himself as anti-gunner and, like practically every other 2020 Democrat, plans to run on the gun control issue.
While he wants to be known as a strong supporter of "gun safety," his claim to fame is wanting to nuke gun owners.
Congressman Eric Swalwell is focusing on fighting gun violence, and has support among people who were moved to activism by the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School massacre.
