Former national security adviser John Bolton tweeted on Tuesday that former President Trump wants to be treated like North Korea’s Kim Jong Un and people should “get ready.”
“Donald Trump wants Americans to treat him like North Koreans treat Kim Jung Un. Get ready……” Bolton posted on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.
Bolton, who served as the national security adviser under the Trump administration, posted a viral clip of Trump speaking with Fox News’s Steve Doocy in 2018, where the former president offered praise for the North Korean leader.
“He’s the head of a country, and I mean he’s the strong head. Don’t let anyone think anything different. He speaks and his people sit up at attention,” Trump is heard saying in the clip. “I want my people to do the same.”
Why it’s in the constitution is pretty clear, and it isn’t what you’re implying. “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State…” is why. We didn’t have a standing military, nor was it expected we ever would. Militias were the standard way a nation fought wars at the time, with a few notable exceptions.
I’m all for what you’re saying, but also the second amendment is an out-dated piece of history. I’m generally pro-gun ownership when done properly, but the second amendment doesn’t say what everyone thinks it says. It is based on an assumption that has been shown to be not true.
