The Biden Administration has been accused of attempting to undermine Second Amendment rights, with claims that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) was used to threaten the livelihoods of small business owners in the firearms industry. These actions are seen as efforts to restrict Americans' access to firearms.
In response, former President Donald J. Trump is reaffirming his commitment to protecting Second Amendment rights. He emphasizes his past efforts during his first term, including measures taken during the pandemic. Notably, Trump designated the firearms industry as "essential," which aimed to keep gun stores, shooting ranges, and ammunition dealers operational amid shutdowns.
This stance reflects Trump's ongoing support for what he describes as defending constitutional rights related to gun ownership and use.
