Republican Presidential Nominee, Donald Trump has sparked outrage by appearing to suggest his supporters could stop his rival Hillary Clinton from becoming president by exercising their gun rights.

At a rally in North Carolina, on Tuesday he says Mrs Clinton would put liberal justices on the Supreme Court if she wins the presidency in November, threatening gun ownership rights.

According to Reuters, Trump said “If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do folks”.
“Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don’t know.”

Mr Trump then hinted that gun rights advocates could stop her taking power.
However, that sparked an online backlash, with many accusing him of inciting violence.

But his campaign team said he was actually talking about getting gun rights supporters to the ballot box to enact change politically.

Meanwhile, Clinton’s campaign called the remark “dangerous”

“A person seeking to be the president of the United States should not suggest violence in any way,” it said.
