MILWAUKEE, July 16 (Reuters) - Donald Trump will safeguard gun rights by appointing federal judges who oppose new firearm limits if he is elected in November, despite narrowly surviving an assassination attempt, a senior adviser to his presidential campaign said on Tuesday.... ...The remarks from LaCivita...dovetailed with the sentiments expressed by a dozen Republican Party delegates interviewed by Reuters at the convention...

Was never a concern of mine, Trump is not a literal moron who would somehow believe Gun Control would have prevented the state sponsored assassination attempt on his life.
Especially since he may have to rely on gunowners to take out future assassins as the SS doesn't appear to be very trustworthy right now.
He knows the gun didn’t do it.
If it were me, I might take a crack at the 1st Amendment, though.
America’s partisan screaming hyenas are more to blame than the weapon.
An odd article to say the least. I’m guessing Trump would still say drill baby drill if someone tried to run him over
If the private citizens who saw that kid acting suspicious were carrying, he would have been dead a lot sooner.
“Gun free zones” are what make these shootings possible.
Maybe I missed it but I haven’t heard one rat call for gun control over this.
Well we will see about that as if not mistaken he did try and ban bumpstocks...Not convinced.
The assassination attempt had nothing to do with gun rights. There simply is no linkage no matter how hard Leftists try to blame the gun.
The authors are babbling fools. Gun laws will not prevent a determined shooter like Crooks from obtaining a gun. Note that Crooks did not purchase the rifle he used. "Gun laws" only prevent legal gun owners from obtaining guns.
I expected no less from Trump. He isn’t ruled by his feelings. There was an Israeli peace activist taken from a kibbutz on October 7th. She was released 57 or so days later, and now supports the annihilation of Hamas. Emotion based beliefs are mercurial.
The Second Amendment doesn’t grant any right. It restricts government from limiting a right the people already have.
Bare minimum ...
We need federal judges who oppose EXISTING "firearm limits"
National Firearms Act is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Gun Control Act is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Yes sir, Mr. Secret Police Agent ... I'm carrying my legally owned defensive weapon to this Presidential Candidate rally to protect the candidate. You have to let me in ...
