President Donald Trump reaffirmed his support for gun rights, telling attendees of a National Rifle Association (NRA) convention that “the eight-year assault on your Second Amendment freedoms has come to a crashing end”.
Trump, the first sitting President to address the group’s annual convention in more than 30 years, assured the audience that he would defend their right to bear arms.
“You have a true friend and champion in the White House,” he said.
