[NYPost] A Democratic congressman from Long Island implied that Americans should grab weapons and oppose President Trump by force, if the commander-in-chief doesn’t follow the Constitution.
Rep. Tom Suozzi made the remark to constituents at a town hall last week, saying that folks opposed to Trump might resort to the "Second Amendment."
"It’s really a matter of putting public pressure on the president," Suozzi said in a newly released video of the March 12 talk in Huntington. "This is where the Second Amendment comes in quite frankly, because you know, what if the president was to ignore the courts? What would you do? What would we do?"
A listener then blurts out, "What’s the second amendment?"
The left-leaning Democrat says "The second amendment is the right to bear arms."
The spectators laughed ‐ some nervously. Republicans were not amused.
File under hypocrisy. Trump suggested something similar during his campaign and there was a "yuge" indignant, self-righteous outcry in protest by the left. |
