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 |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
