(ANSA) - WASHINGTON, MAY 27 - A four and a half hour drive from Uvalde, where 21 families are mourning their dead, over 50,000 people gathered to celebrate weapons and attend the Donald Trump show at the National RifleAssociation convention (Nra ) in Houston, which has become a real comedy in view of its race for 2024. "We will go there to reclaim that White House we love so much and make America safer, richer and bigger than ever", said the former US president sending the crowd of arms peddlers into raptures.
A de facto candidacy for the next elections, although Trump will still have to pass through the Republican primary.
"If we are able to send billions to Ukraine we can also do whatever is necessary to secure the schools", attacked the tycoon criticizing Joe Biden and announcing: "When I am president for the second time I will fight evil".
For over an hour, the former president spoke as if he were on an election campaign, outlining a detailed ruling program.
"The existence of evil in our world is not a reason to disarm law-abiding citizens: it is one of the best reasons to arm them", urged Trump, relaunching the proposal to arm teachers: "There is nothing more dangerous than a zone ' free from weapons' ".
Before the tycoon's show, who took full control of the stage and turned it into his personal platform, NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre intervened, reminding them of the Robb Elementary victims.
A surreal commemoration, liquidated with a minute's silence and swept away by the next three hours dedicated to defending the second amendment, at all costs.
"Abolishing it is not the answer, Biden's proposals on arms control limit the fundamental human right of Americans to self-defense," attacked the head of the arms lobby.
