US SECURITY SERVICE WARNED TRUMP CAMPAIGN REGARDING HIS SECOND AMENDMENT COMMENTS.
A US Secret Service
official confirmed to CNN that the USSS spoke to the Trump campaign regarding
his Second Amendment comments.
"There has been more than one conversation" on the topic, the official told CNN.
But it's unclear at what level in the campaign structure the conversations occurred.
The controversy erupted on Tuesday afternoon when Trump said at a rally that Second Amendment defenders might be able to stop Clinton from appointing justices to the Supreme Court who could weaken gun rights.
The campaign told the USSS that Donald Trump did not intend to incite violence, according to the official.
Trump said Tuesday evening that he was simply trying to unify gun owners against Clinton in the voting booth.
But Clinton supporters continued to slam Trump on Wednesday, saying that violence is never a joking matter.
