Former President Donald Trump, speaking at the National Rifle Association (NRA) Presidential Forum in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, made a resolute promise to NRA members that if re-elected, he would rescind all Biden-era gun restrictions. He assured attendees that his administration’s first actions would include overturning policies such as the ‘Zero-Tolerance’ approach that penalizes firearm dealers for violations and regulations concerning pistol braces, which have been implicated in past gun-related tragedies. Trump also criticized the selective persecution he perceives in the handling of classified documents, particularly in contrast to the treatment he faced during his presidency.
Trump’s relationship with the NRA has been enduring, dating back to his initial address to the group in 2015. However, recent legal and financial turmoil has beset the organization, with ongoing lawsuits and leadership changes, including the departure of Wayne LaPierre due to health concerns and allegations of financial misconduct.
While in office, Trump advocated for expanded gun rights, labeling gun-related businesses as essential during the COVID-19 pandemic and appointing numerous conservative judges supportive of Second Amendment rights. Yet, his administration also introduced measures such as Red Flag laws and banned bump stocks, showcasing a nuanced stance on gun regulation.
The upcoming South Carolina primary, where Trump faces off against Nikki Haley, remains a focal point of his campaign. With a significant lead in polls, Trump projects confidence in securing victory.
