I care about what he thinks and would do NOW, if he becomes president. He is definitely a supporter of the 2nd Amendment, unlike Hillary.

What’s Hillary’s position on the 2nd Amendment? Will she speak at the NRA convention too?

CNN avoids these questions.

I like Trump's position that concealed carry should be subject to national reciprocity, most preferably in the form of national constitutional carry. My fear would be that every state would be required to mandate the laws of New York or New Jersey.

Only the idiots at CNN could question Team Trump's commitment to gun ownership:

He’s not a gun-grabber, that’s really all that matters.

Where he might’ve stood 16 years ago on “assault weapons” is irrelevant. I expect a normal person’s views to evolve and change over time (hopefully towards better ones—as apparently Trump’s have).

If CNN wanted to present a fairer story, they would have noted that in that same 2000 book where he supported the assault weapons ban, he also chided the Democrats for trying to take people’s guns in general away, arguing that the only thing that would accomplish would be to disarm law abiding citizens and leave only criminals with guns.

What’s missing in most of these discussion on the Second Amendment is that Trump’s eldest son, Don Jr. is a livid gun enthusiast and outdoors man. Take a listen - -

Nationwide CCW reciprocity, ultimately leading to Constitutional Carry in all 57 states.

CNN lies and ignores the North Hollywood shootout that occurred in 1997 while the AWB was in full effect.

PROTECTING OUR SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS WILL MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN

Donald J. Trump on the Right to Keep and Bear Arms

From official Trump site: https://www.donaldjtrump.com/positions/second-amendment-rights

The Second Amendment to our Constitution is clear. The right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed upon. Period.

The Second Amendment guarantees a fundamental right that belongs to all law-abiding Americans. The Constitution doesn’t create that right – it ensures that the government can’t take it away. Our Founding Fathers knew, and our Supreme Court has upheld, that the Second Amendment’s purpose is to guarantee our right to defend ourselves and our families. This is about self-defense, plain and simple.

It’s been said that the Second Amendment is America’s first freedom. That’s because the Right to Keep and Bear Arms protects all our other rights. We are the only country in the world that has a Second Amendment. Protecting that freedom is imperative. Here’s how we will do that:

Enforce The Laws On The Books

We need to get serious about prosecuting violent criminals. The Obama administration’s record on that is abysmal. Violent crime in cities like Baltimore, Chicago and many others is out of control. Drug dealers and gang members are given a slap on the wrist and turned loose on the street. This needs to stop.

Several years ago there was a tremendous program in Richmond, Virginia called Project Exile. It said that if a violent felon uses a gun to commit a crime, you will be prosecuted in federal court and go to prison for five years – no parole or early release. Obama’s former Attorney General, Eric Holder, called that a “cookie cutter” program. That’s ridiculous. I call that program a success. Murders committed with guns in Richmond decreased by over 60% when Project Exile was in place – in the first two years of the program alone, 350 armed felons were taken off the street.

Why does that matter to law-abiding gun owners? Because they’re the ones who anti-gun politicians and the media blame when criminals misuse guns. We need to bring back and expand programs like Project Exile and get gang members and drug dealers off the street. When we do, crime will go down and our cities and communities will be safer places to live
