Published February 23, 2018 3:54pm ET



President Trump said Friday that Democrats will take away Americans’ Second Amendment rights if they win seats in the November midterm elections.

“If [Democrats] get in, they will repeal your tax cuts. They will put judges in that you wouldn’t believe. They’ll take away your Second Amendment, which we will never allow to happen. They will take away your Second Amendment. Remember that,” Trump told the audience during a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference. “They will take away those massive tax cuts, and they will take away your Second Amendment.”
