President Trump looked toward the midterm elections during his May 29 speech in Nashville, Tennessee, and warned, “You won’t have a Second Amendment if Democrats take over.”

The Tennessean quoted Trump’s appeal for support for Republican candidates in the midterms: “The other thing is, we are going to protect your Second Amendment.”

He said to a crowd of 1,000, uh, I mean 5,000+ attendees. Thanks NYT for giving bogus numbers initially.

If the commie-dems take over, we won’t have any amendments or much else.

You won’t have anything. Make no mistake the left is going for all the marbles this time. They get them they won’t let them go ever again. Anybody speaking out against the State will be destroyed along with their family and friends, assets seized, etc.

Is the President that ill informed?

Before Democrats turned into the Hate America Party...

"By calling attention to 'a well regulated militia,' the 'security' of the nation, and the right of each citizen 'to keep and bear arms,' our founding fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny which gave rise to the Second Amendment will ever be a major danger to our nation, the Amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic civilian-military relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of his country. For that reason I believe the Second Amendment will always be important."

President John F. Kennedy

---------------------------------------------------

"Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom under any government, no matter how popular and respected, is the right of citizens to keep and bear arms. This is not to say that firearms should not be very carefully used and that definite safety rules of precaution should not be taught and enforced. But the right of citizens to bear arms is just one more guarantee against arbitrary government, one more safeguard against a tyranny which now appears remote in America, but which historically has proved to be always possible."

Vice President and Senator Hubert H. Humphrey

Times sure have changed. There used to be patriotic Democrats once upon a time.

If we won’t have a Second Amendment, then by extension we won’t have a First Amendment either.

“.......take the 2a away is the day millions of regular people gear up and go to war.”......

Many of are already “geared up”, waiting for the first shots to be fired, then “Katy, bar the door”

Why are you nit picking against our President.

Trump singlehandedly faced down and defeated the deep state in 2016 and literally saved the Republic. He is the greatest man this nation has know since Washington.

Trump doesn’t have to worry on a material level about the fall of the Republic, he has enough wealth to always be secure and prosperous.
No, he fights and works tirelessly out of pure patriotism and love for WE THE PEOPLE

I will “always” have a second Amendment. It’s not something that can be taken by another human.

And then soon after that America wont have any leftists any more after that.

Not the kind of ‘revolution’ the leftards want.

But arrogant and tyranny go together for those who dont believe in the Citizens Rights.

I’m with you - my Constitution will always be intact while I live and breathe. Anybody trying to ‘take it away’ becomes a target.
