Trump is very strong on the 2nd Amendment ...

I think Trump is a true patriot, genuine, sincere. I think Perot was, too, and at worst Perot saved us -- twice he saved us -- from anything close to a mandate for Clinton; Clinton's two plurality wins, where the American majority rejected him in the ballot box, made him weak and the MSM has projected the illusion that Clinton was "popular," though both times, more than half of Americans cast votes intended to be "against" Clinton (see my tagline). It made Clinton weak and he got slammed in the Republican Revolution and then impeached, so AFIAC, Perot did us a favor. Plus nutty though he was, he was a true American patriot. (Clinton, Obama, are government weasels).

I think Trump is also a weak sister on the 2nd Amendment.

I have read his words where he makes it clear that be believes people should have the right to arm themselves because they need to defend themselves against criminals. Cops just can't get there in time.

Trump is partially correct in that it is an advantage of the 2nd amendment, guns supplementing the God-given right of a person to defend him/herself.

But the one who is the strongest 2nd amendment supporter is the one who understands why it is important, what its connection is to the 1st amendment.

Without the 2nd amendment, you have no real 1st amendment. I bet Cruz holds that close and dear, and I'll bet that connection flies way over Trump's head.

Correction. Make that: (as opposed to patriots like Trump, Cruz, even Perot) -- Obama and Clinton are global government weasels; America is just the vehicle for power.

Well, does he? There is one candidate that has actually posted their position on the 2nd Amendment on their website and has spoke about it on the news shows.
