Trump: ‘I’ve a Real Problem’ with Obama ‘Taking Chunks out of the 2nd Amendment’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

WALLACE: “President Obama is making a big push about gun control. You said the other day pretty soon we’re not going to be able to get guns. The president responded that’s all a conspiracy.”

[clip starts]

OBAMA: “Contrary to claims of some presidential candidates apparently before this meeting, this is not a plot to take away everybody’s guns.”

[clip ends]

WALLACE: “Your reaction?”

TRUMP: “So President Obama has been hitting the Second Amendment, and he would like to hit it very hard. Number one, you shouldn’t do it through executive order. You should get together with the Republicans and the Democrats and work something out. That’s the way it’s supposed to be done. Not by the signing of an executive order. Now, he’s done executive orders, he’s done it on the border, all over the place. Does he meet with anybody anymore? All he does is sign executive orders. The one on the border was just overturned, who knows what’s going on happen, but it’s a big legal mess, but you have to get people in the room, talk to them, cajole them, see if you can do something. I have a real problem anytime you start knocking and taking chunks out of the second amendment. If people had guns in California when these two horrible people that were married, however, whoever was radicalized first nobody knows, but they were both radical obviously in the end. Had people in that room had guns, a couple of them, it would have been a totally different story. In Paris as an example, you know, in Paris, the toughest gun laws they say in the world or just about, France, the toughest gun lauds in the world, all these people, 130 people killed. Had people in those rooms in Paris when they were being shot, no guns on the good guys’ side, had there been guns there would have been shooting, they would have been gone and it would have been a smaller tragedy than it turned out to be.”
