Trump Accepts NRA Endorsement, Shares Message To Gun Owners
Former President Donald Trump accepted the endorsement of the National Rifle Association (NRA) at the NRA Leadership Forum, Saturday.
“It’s a true honor to be here today to receive the endorsement of the proud American patriots at the NRA,” Trump told the crowd in Dallas, Texas, according to Newsmax. “These are great patriots. These are great people, and we’re going to do things like nobody can believe. We’re going to win this election at levels that nobody’s ever seen before. Thank you very much for that endorsement — means a lot to me.” (LEARN MORE: 3 US Govs Ask For Release Of Americans Detained Over Ammo)
Trump was also endorsed by the NRA during his 2016 bid for President, which led to Trump-supporting gun owners throughout his presidency. This was particularly true of the COVID-19 pandemic, when Trump designated firearms shops as essential businesses, allowing them to remain in operation during lockdowns.
Trump’s 2024 Message To Gun Owners
Trump urged NRA supporters and gun-owning Americans to go out and vote. “I will say and I say it as friends: We’ve got to get gun owners to vote, because you know what? I don’t know what it is — perhaps it’s a form of rebellion, because you’re rebellious people, aren’t you — but gun owners don’t vote,” he continued. “What is that all about? I’ve heard that. I heard it a few weeks ago.”
Trump told the crowd that he believes getting gun owners to vote will turn the tide against Democrats, who largely want to take guns away from all Americans. “For if the gun owners voted, we would swamp them at levels that nobody’s ever seen before. So I think you’re a rebellious bunch, but let’s be rebellious and vote this time, OK?” he asked. (LEARN MORE: China Could ‘Overwhelm’ US Military Bases)
“If you go out and vote — I understand exactly why you don’t — but we have to win. This election is the most important election in the history of our country. You’ve got to get all your friends, all the gun owners. They have to go and they have to vote,” Trump continued. “If they vote, there’s nobody that can beat us. Nobody.” (LEARN MORE: China Could ‘Overwhelm’ US Military Bases)
