When President Donald Trump told reporters outside of Marine One he “didn’t like” firearm suppressors earlier this week, it was worrying.
Frankly, the hope was it was just another fluke.
But then, the President appeared on notoriously anti-gun Piers Morgan’s show in the UK promising to look into a ban on suppressors here in the U.S.
It was alarming.
Yet again, the President who campaigned as a fighter for the Second Amendment is on camera kowtowing to the liberal media with an attack on the Second Amendment.
President Trump needs to reverse course and abandon this latest gun control scheme before it’s too late.
Sadly, this is just the latest in a series of actions by the President against the Second Amendment.
*** First it was the “FIX-NICS” expansion of government gun control databases. 2 *** Then it was the so-called “bump stock” ban, despite NAGR members delivering 148,000 petitions against this unprecedented accessory ban. 3 *** Then it was his “take the guns first” comment sitting next to Dianne Feinstein, which led to White House support for “Red Flag” Gun Confiscation laws.4
And now it’s firearm suppressors.
When will President Trump finally realize that attacking the very Second Amendment supporters who propelled him to the White House in 2016 is NOT a wise strategy for 2020?
After all, if President Trump abandons gun owners again, the alternative we might end up with come 2021 will be FAR worse.
Frankly, we need him with us, and you can help.
Your National Association for Gun Rights will deliver each and every petition signed to the White House in REAL TIME.
Please sign now because, like the last gun accessory ban, this could gain steam FAST!
For some, this latest development will be hard to believe.
So, here’s the White House’s official transcript of the President’s Remarks on Sunday: 5
And, here’s President’s DIRECT quote from his interview with Piers Morgan last night:
Morgan: There’s just been another massacre in Virginia Beach where the shooter used a silencer. What is your view of silencers?
Trump: I don’t like them.
Morgan: Would you like to see those banned?
Trump: Well, I’d like to think about it. I mean nobody’s talked about silencers very much. They did talk about the bump stock and we had it banned, and we’re looking at that, I’m going to seriously look at it.
It’s imperative that the President be reminded where his base stands on the Second Amendment.
He needs to be reminded of the hundreds of thousands of NAGR members and supporters like you who fought just a few years ago to deregulate firearms suppressors with the SHUSH Act.
He needs to be reminded of how Republicans — who squandered their chance with Congressional majorities to pass pro-gun legislation in 2017 — were CRUSHED in 2018.
We simply cannot afford to see a repeat of that in 2020.
Let’s encourage President Trump to stop kowtowing to gun-grabbing redcoats like Piers Morgan and start listening to the pro-gun American patriots.
