Trump In 2000: ‘Nothing I Like Better Than Nobody Has’ Guns
When Donald Trump toyed with running as a populist in 2000 he told Larry King he’d prefer nobody has guns.
“It’s often argued that the American murder rate is high because guns are more available here than in other countries,” Trump wrote in his book, The America We Deserve. “After a tragedy like the massacre at Columbine High School, anyone could feel that it is too easy for Americans to get their hands on weapons. But nobody has a good solution.”
“This is another issue where you see the extremes of the two existing major parties. Democrats want to confiscate all guns, which is a dumb idea because only the law-abiding citizens would turn in their guns and the bad guys would be the only ones left armed,” continued Trump. “The Republicans walk the NRA line and refuse even limited restrictions. I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I also support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun. With today’s internet technology we should be able to tell within 72 hours if a potential gun owner has a record.”
In an interview with Larry King on CNN, Trump again came out in favor of restrictions and adding of guns “nothing I like better than nobody has them.” Trump did say, however, people had a right to own guns.

I think most anti-gun types agree with rumpster when he says “I like it better than nobody has guns”, but I cannot say I am positive.

No GOP have ever figured these facts out: 31% of U.S. homes own guns, but carryout 2/3 of all American Homicides! The gun lobbyists National Racist Association won’t ever be honest.
