“Was Trump’s Firearm Purchase a Potential Criminal Act? Prosecutors Weigh In

The latest news in the seemingly endless saga of the Trump family’s purported misdealings has prosecutors in Washington D.C. looking into possibly criminal activity. At the center of it all is a reported gun purchase by President Trump in 2017. Apparently, around the same time President Trump made a visit to the National Rifle Association (NRA) headquarters, he was also rumoured to have purchased a gun from the organization. However, the exact type of gun he purchased and the identity of the seller remain a mystery. The recent allegations of a possible gun purchase by the President led prosecutors to launch an investigation into the validity of the claims. In addition to the investigation, they have hinted at taking legal action against anyone who may be complicit in a potential arms-dealing related crime. The news of the potential gun purchase comes as a surprise since President Trump is a proponent of gun rights and a known supporter of the NRA. While it is unlikely that the President personally purchased the gun himself, the investigation has raised a lot of questions. If the allegations of a gun purchase by President Trump are found to be true, it could have serious legal consequences. The U.S. law mandating a federally mandated background check for all gun purchases applies even to high-ranking public officials like the President. Furthermore, it is unclear why the President would have wanted to purchase a gun from the NRA in the first place. After all, the President could easily purchase any type of firearm from legitimately licensed providers. The news of the potential criminal activity involving President Trump and the NRA has the country abuzz. However, the exact nature of the transaction and who may have been involved may never be known. In the meantime, the President has yet to make any public comments on the matter.
