Trump has occasionally addressed the issue of gun rights in public settings. During his administration, “there was great pressure on me having to do with guns. We did nothing,” he said to a gathering of National Rifle Association (NRA) members in February 2024. “Your Second Amendment will always be safe with me as your president,” Trump said. While accepting the endorsement of the NRA on May 18, 2024, Trump said that the Second Amendment is “very much on the ballot” in this year’s election. Those comments mean that Trump has not modified his past opposition to a ban on assault weapons or strengthening background check procedures for potential gun buyers.
I find anything trump says to be believable. Protection for the second amendment sits right up there with the wall being built and Mexico paying for it and locking up Hillary. He’ll say one thing and has proven he’ll do another

Trump is far more likely to take guns from the 2A crowd than Biden or Obama ever was.
