Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are arguably the most radical presidential ticket America has ever seen. But Trump is now exposing even more of their radical stances.
As Donald Trump delivers an ominous warning about the Harris/Walz campaign that’ll leave you speechless.
In a recent statement, former President Donald Trump strongly warned Second Amendment supporters about the Democratic presidential ticket’s stance on gun rights, claiming that Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate have plans to confiscate legally owned firearms if elected.
“Let’s call it what it is. Really, it is gun confiscation. That is a violation of your constitutional rights,” Trump stated in a video address shown during the Gun Owners of America convention.
He emphasized his belief that Harris has consistently supported what he described as “gun confiscation schemes,” noting that she seeks to enforce mandatory buybacks of certain firearms. “We’re not going to let that happen,” Trump firmly added.
Throughout her political career, Harris has been open about her stance on gun control. She has backed policies such as banning semi-automatic rifles and limiting cartridge-holding magazines.
During her first campaign rally, Harris expressed her commitment to addressing gun violence. “We, who believe that every person should have the freedom to live safe from the terror of gun violence, will finally pass red-flag laws, universal background checks, and an assault-weapons ban,” she said.
Harris’s running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D), has echoed similar sentiments, pledging to ban AR-15-style firearms, which are a popular style of weapon in the U.S.
Trump warned that Harris and Walz could overstep their power as leaders, comparing their intentions to that of dictators.
“That’s really putting her right alongside some of the most dangerous dictators anywhere in history,” he remarked.
The former president also criticized Harris’s tenure as California’s attorney general, recalling her opposition to concealed carry permits.
According to Trump, Harris set the bar so high for citizens to prove their need for personal protection that “practically nobody was able to get one.” He deemed this position extreme, contrasting it with his pledge to defend Americans’ constitutional rights to protect themselves. “But in contrast, I will always defend your constitutional right to protect yourself when I’m president,” Trump said.
Trump, who remains a favorite among several pro-gun groups, including the National Rifle Association, highlighted his track record on gun rights during his time in office.
While he largely blocked gun control measures, he did approve a ban on bump stocks—a decision that was later overturned by the Supreme Court.
Urging gun owners to take action at the ballot box, Trump expressed concern that not enough of them vote. “I need every single gun owner to make a plan to go and vote,” he stressed, acknowledging that, despite being a significant voting bloc, many gun owners fail to participate in elections. “If the gun owners of this country voted, just a small percentage of them, we would have a victory like you’ve never seen,” Trump said.
His remarks, delivered via video at the Gun Owners of America convention in Knoxville, Tennessee, were later shared with Secrets on Wednesday. Tim Macy, chairman of Gun Owners of America, lauded Trump’s remarks as his “strongest take on gun rights to date.” Macy highlighted the importance of the upcoming election for gun rights advocates, pointing to Trump’s running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), as a reliable pro-gun ally.
Erich Pratt, senior vice president of Gun Owners of America, echoed this sentiment, stating, “Our rights are absolutely on the ballot, and it’s essential that gun owners do everything we can to turn out the pro-gun vote and ensure Kamala Harris is not the next occupant of the White House.”
