This must have gotten scrambled on the transcription table. Here, let me correct it for you :
"Will US President Donald Trump's administration uphold citizens’ legal right to bear arms to protect themselves...?"
And while we're at it, let's note that it isn't "the USA" that is being discussed. It is the "federal government of the USA." Different entities.
And note that it reads "at every level of our judicial system." Not "We'll take positive legislative action," just "we'll file a friend of the court and wring our hands when we lose because of bad precedent or hostile judges. 'Hey, _we_ upheld it. Our hands were tied by historic forces."
Will the REALLY defend your rights? We'll see. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
