Democratic Senator Claire McCaskill doesn’t mention gun control on her official government website. As a representative from Missouri, she knows to stay away from issues that might alienate moderate voters, but a new undercover video from Project Veritas has revealed her support for everything from a bump stock ban to a ban on semi-automatic rifles.
“Well if we elect enough Democrats we’ll get some gun safety stuff done,” McCaskill said in the video. “They won’t let us vote on it, we’ve got 60 votes for a number of measures that would help with gun safety, but McConnell won’t let ’em come to the floor.”
“Like bump stocks, ARs and high capacity mags…?” a journalist asked.
“Universal background checks, all of that,” she responded. “But if we have the kind of year I think we might have I think we could actually be in a position to get votes on this stuff on the floor and we’d get 60 [votes]…”
Project Veritas also spoke with McCaskill’s staffers, who explained that McCaskill has to hide her support for anti-gun groups like Moms Demand Action because it would “…hurt her ability to get elected.”
“She doesn’t openly go out and support groups like ‘Mom’s Demand Action’ or just like other groups that are related to that,” said Rob Mills, one of her staffers. “Because that could hurt, her ability to get elected. Because people like see that and they’re like well I don’t want to support her even though they stand for the same policies… She’s worked out stuff with Mom’s Demand Action to make sure that she can support their goals without supporting the organization openly.”

But wait, there’s more!
McCaskill staffers also stated that even though the senator and Barak Obama hold “essentially… the same views on everything,” the former President doesn’t campaign for McCaskill because they know it will turn off moderate voters.
“Claire distancing herself from the party is gonna help her win more votes than it will saying like: ‘Oh here’s Obama, the former President of the United States, to now speak on my behalf,’” said Nicolas Starost, another of McCaskill’s staffers.
“And they essentially have the same views on everything?” a journalist asked
“Yeah. People just can’t know that,” Starost responded.
McCaskill wasn’t happy when the video surfaced earlier this week. Her campaign is demanding that Missouri Attorney General Josh Hawley open a fraud investigation into the videos, according to the Kansas City Star. The claim that Project Veritas committed fraud that violated the state’s merchandising practices act.
Goodbye claire! We hardly (wanted to)knew ye!
This is nothing new, just look at the laws on top of laws that have no appreciable effect on gun crimes. Simply put, criminals just don’t care. Politicians just want the votes, then after the elections they will decide what’s best for you. The law abiding gets more laws to obey. It’s a win-win for democrats.
I’m a retired LEO in Missouri. I like guns and I served in the U.S.M.C. Hell, I onced provided security for her at a highly political lawyers office the black lives idiots stormed. She was drinking and drove herself in a pos black kia and left with st. Louis County plainclothes officers in an unmarked suv. She cussed and sweared about the black lives idiots. She talks out both sides of her mouth. I definitely will be doing my part to let everyone I know to make sure she gets no damn support. She’s a embarrassing representative snake of Missouri. Please everyone get the word out about her. I know a lot more about her but there’s not enough space here to fully explain my observations of her.

‘Win’ more votes is different than ‘Earning’ more votes.
My resume exceeds the recommended one and a half pages, fully 3x. There is no hype or flowery statements; just verifiable facts. Along with it I supply a full list of references. Potential employers are invited cross check to any degree they feel position warrants. Obviously, to be found incorrect or false, I don’t get the job. Some positions require security agreements, a signature affirms statements are accurate.
Found otherwise they can initiate prosecution for breach of promise.
How is it engineered, a politician practices duality without implications? McCaskill’s campaign demands a FRAUD investigation be commenced, because undercover investigator(s) hid their agenda collecting information that damages her bid for re-election? And notice, quotes from several individuals support what is occurring, in all kinds of social backgrounds.
So, if the real agenda was known, whom of them keep their job? Far back as I recall, coercion wasn’t a redeeming quality.
Tried to post this but they took it down with in twenty minutes.
Just like Hillary. yell about what was released, but never denies it. Can’t. It is damning evidence.
I’m curious as to how many people in the U.S. have seen this…
God forbid the dummocraps win but if they do and attack the second amendment then the ass kicking will begin. Politicians beware.
Another Democrat who lives in a fantasy world, like holly wooder’s. She has all the protection , income, benefits she will ever need.
Step out into the real world please
Dems/libs…can’t live with them…can’t abort them fast enough…go figure…
Just another lying politician. If baby raping would get them votes they’d come out in favor of it. Most of them are dishonorable lying pieces of shit.
I’m really looking forward to my opportunity to vote for Josh Hawley.
Of course, McCaskill will be able to retire comfortably on the millions of dollars she’s bilked over her pathetic career in Washington.
I’m Shocked! Shocked I say! Here in Massachusetts Demorats don’t lie! Hate Americans, hate gun owners, hate service members(notice non-generic), hate police. The future lies in the hands of illegals. Warren 2020!
The wolves have ditched their sheep clothing and are fully exposed. Any gun owner who votes “D” is committing suicide
A typical lying, America hating, Gun Hating, Baby killing democrat!
