Trump urges members to ‘be rebellious and vote’ after accepting NRA endorsement

Former President Trump urged National Rifle Association (NRA) members to “be rebellious and vote” for him in the 2024 election, after accepting the endorsement from the gun rights advocacy group.

Trump pledged to thousands of attendees at NRA’s convention in Dallas that he will “stand strong for your rights and liberties,” claiming the Second Amendment is “under siege” while President Biden is in office.

The presumptive GOP nominee said that while gun owners may not usually vote, it was “important” they turn out in November. 

“We would swamp them at levels that nobody’s ever seen before,” he said Saturday, receiving laughs from those in the audience. “So, I think you’re a rebellious bunch, but let’s be rebellious and vote this time.”
