Donald Trump threw a new claim Hillary Clinton's way at a Saturday rally, telling the crowd that she wants to do away with the Second Amendment.
"Hillary Clinton wants to abolish the Second Amendment. She wants to abolish it," Trump said at a Saturday rally in Lynden, Wash. "Hillary Clinton wants to take your guns away and she wants to abolish the Second Amendment. She wants to take the bullets away."
"We're going to cherish the Second Amendment, we're going to take care of the Second Amendment."
Clinton is in favor of universal background checks, closing loopholes on gun purchases and increasing restrictions on domestic abusers and the mentally ill. And she wants to repeal the law that prevents victims of gun violence from suing retailers or manufacturers, among other measures.
But Clinton said at a recent event that "we can't ignore the Second Amendment" and has never proposed ending legal gun ownership entirely.
After Trump's comments, Clinton spokesman Jesse Lehrich tweeted that the presumptive GOP nominee has "no regard for facts."
The First and Second. We can’t have descent now can we? Plus if it would ever be a Hillary/Bernie ticket that won, she’d suspend the Constitution with an EO and have a new one written to reflect the liberal views of the country.
Every single solitary time our modern Congress has passed an XXX bill, it is to restrict and regulate, if not to utterly ban, XXX.
Case in point, affordable health care.
Nope, the meddlers should back OFF.
A vote for the Wicked Witch is a vote to repeal the Bill of Rights.
No, actually it won’t.
They have sworn an oath to themselves to NEVER believe anything he says.
Otherwise they would have supported him six months ago.
Trump has drawn clearer lines between him and Clinton then Romney and McCain did against anyone.
Some of this refusal might be for show, while there was a hope that Ted Cruz could be their shining conservative knight.
If she could, she would. Give her SCOTUS picks and she will.
OK...?
But what the hell does that have to do with anything I said?
I mean she’s thinking of that kind of “help”
“Usually it’s the Republican always on the defensive...now that table is turned.”
That’s a fact that’s easily overlooked now that we are winning.
Trump has taken the initiative on this and so many other issues, leaving the other side to respond, instead of the other way around.
this is going to be so much fun.
We have a fighter who wants to win.
She walks around with how many armed guards??
If Donald undertook this quest in order to go along to get along, it sure doesn’t look like it.
Thankfully, Jim kicked most of those AHs off already.
But you see, they refused to acknowledge anything their guy did that was contradictory to his claims.
Then they refused to acknowledge anything the other guy did that was right.
I’m not sure that left them with any grasp of reality, or even the trail they came down to get here.
They are utterly confused and lost, with no lifeline.
I think Trump plans to be a help to conservatism in “most cases.” Including this. But not in all, and he isn’t going to entirely please anybody. And so goes it with politics. In order to get most people behind you, which is where Trump is seeking his power, you have to compromise on some things.
“We and Trump are at war with anyone who isn’t with us,”
Yes we are, and they are going to pay for it.
Trump, with our support, will make that happen.
>Not clicking the article, noticed the gerbalist author is quick to cover Hitlery’s fat azz, like a good Iraqi information minister.
Not that anyone will believe it. Everyone knows that Hillery is a gun grabber.
Once the mesmerization is over, it will look like Donald will probably give them 60-80% of what they want. Half a loaf that is baked, is better than a whole loaf that isn’t.
Not so. When they pass a "Crime Bill", it serves to increase crime.
Yeah, about that; we’re not big on that ‘go along to get along’ stuff are we?
I’m relishing every bit of his campaign.
