Trump: Ralph Northam Putting Virginia ‘in Play’ with Gun Control Push
Breitbart ^ | 22 Jan 2020 | TRENT BAKER

Posted on 01/22/2020 9:05:35 AM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

In a sit-down interview with Maria Bartiromo which aired Wednesday on Fox Business Network’s “Mornings with Maria,” President Donald Trump said Virginia is “in play” for him to win in 2020.

Trump pointed to Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam’s (D) push to take away guns, arguing Northam wants to do away with the Second Amendment.

“I think Virginia is crazy where they want to take away guns,” Trump outlined. “You have a governor that’s — I just can’t believe it — but Virginia is very much in play. I think we are going to win state of Virginia. They want to take everyone’s gun away in Virginia. You can’t do it. You can’t do it. People need that for safety. They need it for hunting and … but many people need it for safety, they need it for safety.”

He continued, “They’re playing with our Second Amendment. Frankly, they’d get rid of it. I watched him in the interview. He would get rid of the Second Amendment if it was up to him. And you have many Democrats saying the same thing. They’re saying it quietly, but if they win these elections, they’re going to try to get rid of the Second Amendment. It will never happen as long as I’m here.”

There's also a great deal of concern and outrage over the ridiculous no-bail law passed by the New York State Assembly and signed by Governor Fredo, which has unleashed a crime wave in the state and resulted in several fatalities (of innocent, defenseless ordinary citizens) already.

Also the crazy anti-Second-Amendment push of the Democrats in Virginia are going to help Trump in that state too.

President Trump won and will win by expanding the vote.
He is getting people who haven’t voted in a long time or never voted.
The gun issue in VA has woken them up.

I hope this is correct, but I thought the governor in blackface would also put Virginia in play.

> Where are the recall elections to toss the bleeps out.

You’re gonna love this.

If I remember correctly, it takes a certain number of signatures on a petition to invoke a recall election in VA.

There was actually a recall movement in play with a petition. When it was clear that the signature threshold would be met, the VA legislature hastily passed a law that increased the number of required signatures to some astronomical amount, and the governor signed it into law, thereby derailing the recall effort.

These people are first order tyrants.

I guarantee you that the Trump campaign is going to target VA with multiple rallies and everyone of them will have a 2A theme.

Not just NRA, but a Richmond 2A, including a black guy with a Trump flag, impersonating gubbenor northam in blackface.

Why? You have forgotten that both state houses in Virginia flipped to democrat led by the blackface governor. His blackface did not seem to bother too many voters.

The voters were motivated by their hatred of Trump. They couldn't wait to vote as a symbol of anti-Trump.

The entirety of the leftist agenda that we witness tearing our country apart today was supposed to have occurred under a Hillary Presidency and overwhelm our conservative cultural defenses. It didn’t. It is now a weakened virus that is serving to inoculate the World by showing us all how they would have enacted a Stalinist police state tyranny worse than Hitler. They got snookered, their heads are in a noose of their own making, the true nature of their collective psychology is stripped naked.
