Democrats are playing politics by claiming weak gun laws and the coronavirus pandemic are behind the crime increase in cities across America, according to Kellyanne Conway, counselor to President Trump.
Conway told “Outnumbered Overtime” Monday that Sen. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill., and New York Mayor Bill de Blasio are shifting blame to cover for theirs and their party’s failures.
In a clip played by host Julie Banderas, Duckworth said that if President Trump wants to end the violence, he should pressure Senate Republicans to “close the gun show loophole” and enact “universal background checks.”
“Her evidence of the gun show loopholes having created this wave of violence in these Democratic-controlled cities is what?” Conway asked rhetorically. “I know she’s auditioning for vice president for [presumptive Democratic nominee] Joe Biden, she’s got stiff competition, so she’s going to say things to mollify the hard left.
