Hey Introvert thats ok nbc evening news is spouting the same "he may have meant" crap that you are.
At least you and the msm are on the same page right?
I usually dislike promoting my own threads, but I touched on this topic here. The guesswork is not only nonsense, but unfitting of journalism.

I just saw Trump’s statement and it appears to me he meant to suggest 2nd amendment people could do some harm to Hillary and he chuckled lightly.

Posters are leaving off the last sentence. Read the last sentence.
“By the way, if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do folks,” he then added.
“Though the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don't know.”
And here I was thinking the Second Amendment was a right and for the specific purpose of overthrowing a tyrannical Government that attempts to strip its citizens of their rights.
No one really knows 100% what the 2nd amendment means or was meant for.

Well, believe it or not, conservatives aren't the only Americans with guns.
This is exactly what Trump was referring to - and he wasn't talking about lobbying/voting (and neither are you).
"There's nothing you can do folks. Well, the second amendment people, maybe there is...."

When the raw truth of the values and aims of the oligarchy are clearly and overtly on the table and every nightly news show . . . which side do you anticipate that the liberals with guns will come down on?

Oh, geez.
Remember when Hillary "advocated" for Obama's assassination, in 2008?
“My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right?” she (Hillary Clinton) said. “We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California.”
Bill Burton, a spokesman for the Obama campaign, which has refrained from engaging Mrs. Clinton in recent days, said her statement “was unfortunate and has no place in this campaign.”
Privately, aides to Mr. Obama were furious about the remark.
Concerns about Mr. Obama’s safety led the Secret Service to give him protection last May, before it was afforded to any other presidential candidate, although Mrs. Clinton had protection, too, in her capacity as a former first lady. Mr. Obama’s wife, Michelle, voiced concerns about his safety before he was elected to the Senate, and some black voters have even said such fears weighed on their decision of whether to vote for him.
It was against that backdrop that Mrs. Clinton’s mentioning the Kennedy assassination in the same breath as her own political fate struck some as going too far. Representative James E. Clyburn of South Carolina, an uncommitted superdelegate, said through a spokeswoman that the comments were “beyond the pale.”

Maybe she shouldn't have set the bar so low?

Can someone tell me, if Hillary does become president, that is, if enough people vote for her - and she puts in an anti-2nd amendment justice in the S.C. - what is it exactly that the 2nd amendment people are going to do if that new S.C. repeals the 2nd amendment? They can't vote for Trump at that point, because Hillary is already president. You can't sue the S.C. because it is the highest court in the land.
So, what can the 2nd amendment people do to fix this situation if it were to occur and the 2nd amendment is repealed and guns are banned?

Congrats Trump! You're remarks are on the front pages of Politico, NY Times, CNN and the Washington Post!
Why am I more surprised that TRUMP would hint at assassinating his opponent, than I am about HILLARY hinting at assassinating her former opponent, Barack Obama?

Congrats!
The only people that 'care' were never going to vote for him to begin with.
They are only jumping on the TRUMP HATE bandwagon because it already fits their preconceived BIAS.

I swear everyone is losing their minds over this election... on both sides of the aisle.
Yes, Trump made a bad joke.
Trump supporters don't want to admit it and Hillary supporters are acting like a bunch of drama queens.
That's really not a joke.
There's too many disturbed people out there for him to even suggest this seriously
