On Tuesday’s episode of MSNBC’s Deadline White House host Nicolle Wallace said the Second Amendment was intended to help fight against “foreign militias,” not to create an “armed population” while interviewing gun-control activists.
Wallace used New York Times columnist Bret Stephens recent op-ed calling for the repeal of the Second Amendment as a jumping-off point while interviewing John Feinblatt, president of Everytown for Gun Safety, and actress Julianne Moore. “A conservative wrote a piece last week that got a lot of attention about maybe opening up the conversation about the Second Amendment,” Wallace said. “His name is Bret Stephens, and he said the intellectually honest way to have this debate is to say that this isn’t what was intended, that we’re an armed population. This was a right to bear arms against foreign militias.”

Must have missed that chapter in the Federalist Papers
Actually, that works just as well, because we are still prepared for any invasion of the US.
I don’t think she even knows what a militia is.
If she’s got the power, come and take them. Until then, she should shut up.
This buffoon was in Bush 43’s communication department.
Spit.
Foreign militias like Antifa and BLM?
The same woman who claimed the campaign had a plan to keep Governor Sarah Palin from being sworn-in as Vice President had McCain won in 2008? That Nicolle Wallace?
It is actually a good thing they advance such arguments. Even the mildly informed have to recognize the tortured stupidity of these convoluted arguments.
If they were half bright, they would be more dangerous.
Nicole Wallace has always been a progressive plant who wears an R jersey as camouflage.
The armed citizenry is the militia that keeps us free.
From foreign intervention or our own government.
The founders were brilliant and sought to give us the means to keep our liberty.
Second amendment designed for citizens to defend themselves from dictatorial government like the one our founders with their firearms fought-—and from criminals too, of course. As any third grade graduate should know
Wrong . . . the 2nd amendment was designed to scare the p!$$ out of the likes of Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell.
See my tagline.
Just how stupid is Nicolle Wallace?
To paraphrase Dan Aykroyd, “Nicolle, you ignorant slut!”
She only needs five tyrants in black robes to agree with her. One of them could say that gun control is a tax.
In hindsight and with much regret, I have come to the conclusion that there was little conservative about Bush I or Bush II.
They fooled us pretty well at the time, but the policies were progressive.
This dingbat doesn’t even recognize our “militia” was fighting foreign ARMIES and NAVIES, NOT “militias”!!!
Wrong answer. It is to defend against “a tyrannical and arbitrary government”, the exact term used by Hubert Humphrey in 1960 to describe the purpose of the Second Amendment.
Ummm, don’t we have ‘an army’ for that?
