If push comes to shove, Trump will not defend 2A rights.

Indeed, in four years, he banned more guns than Obama did in eight.

The same Nashville terror attack could have been accomplished with a pump-action shotgun. Maybe that ‘s what he means.

New Yorkers hate guns. Trump is and will always be a New Yorker. Aligned with Bloomberg on guns.

You can take the New Yorker out of New York, but . . . .

To be fair, he may have learned since then.

Someone needs to take him to the range, put an AR in his hands and let him play.

Hinckley could’ve killed 10 people with a 22lr revolver, easily if he had any aim instead of blind firing.

I just don’t understand when people think of offensive-only when it comes to weaponry. Even Abe in Japan was shot and killed by a homemade shotgun with fireworks and pipes.

The only thing, I can assume, is they (and Trump) want you disarmed so they can control you easier.

I’ve always been suspicious of Trump on guns, for exactly the reason you specify. This article, above, increases my suspicions.

It’s not a complicated answer. Because the police and military have similar weapons.

The reason we were able to defeat the British is because we had equal firepower.

…When Darnell and Cleotis break in your door at 3am… the light will go on, Mr. Trump.
Average Americans do NOT have secret service detail to protect them.

Wake the heck up.

Yet his sons are gun advocates and hunters. They need to sit down with pops and explain why we need AR’s and other assault weapons.

Trump’s background is old school NYC democrat. It shows, horribly.

"New York Liberal" is Trump's default setting.

Read the stupid article. It is based on a remark someone anonymous said they heard him say on an airplane.

I call bs, but I have and like guns and could still say off hand that “nobody needs one”.

Doesn’t mean I’d stop you (or me) from having one.

W won me over when he passed concealed carry in TX. Then Abbott Moreso with permitless.

Desantis is on the cusp of passing permitless in FL. I don’t understand all the ‘globohomo’ calls against Desantis. He’s going after trannies and more pro-gun than Trump ever has.

Re: 5 - That’s a fair point. I believe that President Trump is vulnerable in a debate to questions about guns and gun control. I also think he can show that he has changed in regards to the Second Amendment.

Sorry, but there’s too much ‘some guy told some other guy’ stuff here. And there’s not enough direct quotes by named individuals.

So I can’t take anything here at face value.

His push for a bump stock ban certainly did nothing to allay those suspicions. New Yorkers gotta New York.
