Trump to the White House in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>SAF and CCRKBA also offer their sincere congratulations to President-elect Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence for their historic and stunning victory, and especially for Mr. Trump\u2019s gracious call for unity among all Americans.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat happened Tuesday night was a reaffirmation that Americans can make the system work, and that this nation\u2019s gun owners are a cornerstone of that system,\u201d said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb. \u201cIt cannot be ignored that this nation\u2019s tens of millions of honest firearms owners turned out to protect their constitutional rights. From the outset, Mr. Trump made it clear that the Second Amendment will be safe on his watch.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile America\u2019s hard-working gun owners can celebrate the victory they helped make possible,\u201d added Gottlieb, who also chairs the CCRKBA, \u201cwe must remain mindful that the gun prohibition lobby, which is largely funded by elitist billionaires like Michael Bloomberg, will almost certainly double down on their efforts to erode our Second Amendment rights at the state level, whenever and wherever they can.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery gun owner owes a huge \u2018Thank You\u2019 to our good friends at the National Rifle Association for their efforts and expenditures to educate and guide voters,\u201d Gottlieb noted.<\/i>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\nHaving talked with Alan at the Gun Rights Policy Conference and listened to all the speakers there, I think there was a sense then that we were going to have to work very hard to preserve our gun rights and, even then, we might fail. That was September and this is November. My how things have shifted.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to point out Alan&#8217;s thanks to the NRA for their immense efforts in this election. Alan is not only the Executive Director of SAF but also a Life Member of the NRA.<\/p>\n<p>As to the NRA&#8217;s efforts, see this <a href=\"https:\/\/iqmediacorp.com\/ClipPlayer\/?ClipID=927ccee0-6def-442c-8145-d16410ed3fa8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">clip <\/a>with NBC&#8217;s Chuck Todd and Tom Brokaw.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alan Gottlieb of the Second Amendment Foundation and the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[394,395,384],"class_list":["post-866","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-alan-gottlieb","tag-ccrkba","tag-second-amendment-foundation"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/866","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=866"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/866\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10876,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/866\/revisions\/10876"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=866"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=866"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=866"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
