Yesterday when Nancy Pelosi found out that President Trump was going to declare a national emergency to get the border wall built, she threatened that a future democratic president could declare a “gun violence” emergency and confiscate all privately owned firearms. Today, the President did indeed declare a national emergency at the border and so all of the democrats are doubling down on the idea that the next time a democrat is in the White House, they’re coming for our guns.
“That’s a national emergency,” said Pelosi of gun violence. “Why don’t you declare that an emergency, Mr. President? I wish you would. But a Democratic president can do that. A Democratic president can declare emergencies as well.”
And with that, the democrats were off to the races to establish that “gun violence” is the real national emergency. Here’s California Senator and 2020 hopeful Kamala Harris:
Declaring a national emergency over this President’s vanity project is ridiculous. We don’t need a wall. Instead, we should address the actual emergencies facing our country — everything from gun violence to the opioid crisis.
— Kamala Harris (@KamalaHarris) February 14, 2019
And Elizabeth Warren in a rare non-cultural appropriation statement said the exact same thing because democrats are incapable of independent thought.
Gun violence is an emergency.
Climate change is an emergency.
Our country’s opioid epidemic is an emergency.Donald Trump’s ridiculous wall is not an emergency.
— Elizabeth Warren (@ewarren) February 14, 2019
Then there is California Rep. Eric Swalwell, who literally wants to nuke Americna gun owners who won’t disarm:
How many real national emergencies can you name right now?
Right now I’ve got gun violence, healthcare/prescription drugs, the opioid crisis, climate change, voting rights, and protecting our elections from foreign influence.

Plus let’s not forget that Hollywood gets the Democratic Party memos too. Here’s marginally-employed has-been Alyssa Milano.
Hey, @realDonaldTrump.
Maybe no one has told you, but declaring a National Emergency for a wall sets a precedent that future Presidents can declare a National Emergency for:
-healthcare
-climate change
-gun reformAll of which are more pressing and dire than your weird wall.

As you can see, the left has laid the ground work that legal gun ownership is a national emergency. Now comes Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy to bring their devious plan together:
100 people die from guns every day. That’s a national emergency.
If Trump gets away w this border emergency declaration, then a Dem President can declare a gun violence emergency and institute universal background checks and an assault weapons ban by executive action.
So…

So, he’s promising that the next time there’s a democrat in the White House, they will take away our guns? That’s pretty much a guarantee that there will never be a democratic President of the United States again. Thanks, Murph.
Also, he’s wrong. 100 people don’t die every day from guns, 91 do and 57 of them are from suicide. There may be a mental health crisis in this country but certainly not a “gun violence” emergency.
All of this tells you exactly what the democrats are about. President Trump simply wants to construct a border wall to keep foreign invaders, killers, rapists, and drugs out of the country. The democrats’ reaction to the President trying to keep us safe is to threaten taking away our 2nd Amendment right of gun ownership. Maybe President Trump should declare the Democratic Party an national emergency because there is no other group working as hard against our safety, prosperity, and civil rights.
