How Trump is Championing the Second Amendment

President Trump has long been an advocate of our Second Amendment Rights, but the incumbent is stepping things up a notch—making it a centerpiece of his 2020 campaign.

“If the left gains power, they will … confiscate your guns and appoint justices who will wipe away your Second Amendment and other constitutional freedoms,” Trump said during his speech on the closing night of the Republican National Convention (RNC). “We will … defend your Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms. And if we don't win, your Second Amendment doesn't have a chance. I can tell you that. I have totally protected it.”

Indeed, his championing of this constitutional right stands in stark contrast to the Biden-Harris ticket, which varies from the presidential contender's promoting further gun-control laws and non-viable “smart-gun mandates,” to allusions to buyback schemes and potential confiscation.

And just to make the distinction as explicit as possible, at a campaign event in Pennsylvania—Biden’s birthplace—hours before his opponent took the podium to accept the Democratic nomination, Trump talked about “mayhem” that could spread under Biden’s leadership, and then Trump again vowed to protect our right to keep and bear arms.
