Donald Trump... told the NRA that Hillary Clinton would take away the right to bear arms ... Trump, ... dove right into attacking Clinton, saying she "wants to abolish the Second Amendment." "We're not going to let that happen," Trump said. "We're going to preserve it, we're going to cherish it."
Trump ... suggested that Clinton would take away gun rights via the Supreme Court. "If she gets to appoint her judges, she will abolish the Second Amendment," Trump told an enthusiastic crowd...... She quickly responded ... on Twitter. "You're wrong, We can uphold Second Amendment rights while preventing senseless gun violence," she tweeted.
Trump hammered home his argument that gun rights are critical to fighting terrorism -- raising the specter of recent terrorist attacks -- but spent most of his speech sharpening his attacks on Clinton.... arguing that Clinton is telling "every woman that she doesn't have the right to defend herself" with a firearm. "That is so unfair and that is so egregious and I'll tell you what, my poll numbers with women are starting to go up," he said.
Chris Cox, energized the crowd by bashing Clinton and urging Republicans to "get over" their sore feelings about the primary process and unite around the presumptive Republican nominee.... argued that the "Second Amendment is on the ballot in November,"...
Chris Cox,...: "the stakes in this year's presidential election could not be higher for gun owners." "If Hillary Clinton gets the opportunity to replace Antonin Scalia with an anti-gun Supreme Court justice, we will lose the individual right to keep a gun in the home for self-defense,"...
"Mrs. Clinton has said that the Supreme Court got it wrong on the Second Amendment. So the choice for gun owners in this election is clear. And that choice is Donald Trump."

You should post a thread on that youtube and try and transcribe her words into the original post for the thread. And send it to the NRA, they should have played her quote in its entirety (only 33 seconds.)
Clinton: “I’m going to sneak out and do everything I can to rally people against and stop this pernicious, corrupting influence of the NRA.”
“I was proud that my husband took them out, and he was able to ban assault weapons, but it had a sunset clause, and 10 years later.....Bush wouldn’t ....

Trump is going after the “monster vote,” that gigantic bloc who formerly stayed home because neither side spoke for them. If he succeeds, along with awakening democrats like union workers, we may see an electoral tsunami.
“And then there are others who will upset it just for the sake of upsetting it, even if the upshot is to go from bad to worse.”
Not making any bad hint here about this specific transition. Hillary would be wicked in a different way than Barack, I think... but still wicked.
The Constitution and the Bill of Rights is OURS! It is not owned by the Government nor the Supreme Court and if they try to take our God-given rights away from us we have no choice but CW2 to make them understand who is the boss.
Speaking of, I ran across a Politico article that said 22 rules committee members had been chosen, but did not list names. I also noted it was dated 2 days prior to the one you posted. Maybe you have seen it already.
I haven’t seen that article.
There is apparently an overlap, since some of the delegates are on RNC rules committee and may also be state committee men or women.
I heard that Morton Blackwell was selected for VA again.
The LA Times has a long article on Cruz delegates today (with names), you may want to look through that and see if any of those pop up.
don’t worry, they have it.
it was played at the NRA Convention. They know how to use this stuff to maximum advantage.

the leak came from the Trump campaign, from a speech to donors Hillary gave in NY City. You see, even being friends with some NY liberals has paid off for the Donald.
Thank you, but I failed to hear the quote in it’s entirety. I’m sure that they chose the part that was most effective and purposefully did not give airtime to the negative comments on the NRA.
