Fox News host Tucker Carlson slammed President Trump for calling this week to confiscate guns without due process as a means of combatting gun violence.
“Imagine if Barack Obama had said that? ‘Just ignore due process and confiscating guns.’ Obama would have been denounced as a dictator,” Carlson said on Thursday. “Congress would be talking impeachment right now. Someone would be muttering about secession.”
Trump on Wednesday voiced support for immediately confiscating guns from individuals deemed too dangerous, even if it violated due process rights.“Take the guns first, go through due process second,” Trump said during a meeting with lawmakers on school safety and gun violence. Vice President Pence pushed back on his remarks, saying the proper procedure of securing court orders was essential so “no one’s rights are trampled.”
