AS UPI and other news outlets report:
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump challenged Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton to travel without armed bodyguards to prove that guns don’t keep people safe.
“Hillary said that guns don’t keep you safe. If she really believes that she should demand that her heavily armed bodyguards quickly disarm!” Trump said Sunday in a Twitter post.
As a former First Lady and a presidential candidate, Clinton has the protection of Secret Service guards.
She has a record of favoring gun control.
In October, she said, if elected president, she’ll take executive action to restrict gun sales to people the government decides are unfit to possess guns.
President Barack Obama is expected to issue executive orders this week to place more restrictions on gun sellers.
Trump said if elected president he would veto or “unsign” any executive action on guns that violated the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
