Trump scores points on the 2A

Posted by David Hardy · 9 August 2016 04:28 PM

At a rally in North Carolina, Donald Trump remarks, of Hillary Clinton, "By the way if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks." Then he adds "Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don't know."

Hillary's campaign responds "This is simple -- what Trump is saying is dangerous. A person seeking to be the President of the United States should not suggest violence in any way."

And Trump's campaign replies that his reference was to political power: "2nd Amendment people have amazing spirit and are tremendously unified, which gives them great political power. And this year, they will be voting in record numbers, and it won't be for Hillary Clinton, it will be for Donald Trump."

Very, very clever. The first statement was merely setting the ambush.

The impudence of those who think they can out maneuver the star negotiator.

True to their nature, the left doubles down with the attempt to label this as a dangerous threat.

Well it is to them, I mean think about - the proles being armed?
