Trump addresses an embattled NRA as he campaigns against Biden’s gun policies | CNN Politics

www.cnn.com

Donald Trump arrives at the NRA convention a reliable ally of gun rights activists. But it’s unclear how much the NRA can help with his latest White House bid.

From May 2024:

As he seeks a second term, Trump has promised to remain an unflinching supporter of the NRA and its agenda to unravel four years of Biden’s actions on guns. Biden’s campaign has branded Trump “the greatest defender of the Second Amendment to ever occupy the White House.”

Trump’s speech was short on specifics about what he would do to protect or expand gun rights in a second term, but he promised to “roll back every Biden attack on the Second Amendment.” He sought to remind the friendly crowd of his administration’s accomplishments while arguing that another four years of Biden’s leadership would result in more firearms and gun owners being targeted.

This might be the only time in human history that I am against additional gun regulation.

  TBH if Trump could get more moderate votes by wanting regulations, it wouldn’t be worth the trade on other policies.
