President Donald Trump has focused much of his speech at the 147th annual meeting of the National Rifle Association on energizing his supporters to ensure a win for Republicans in the midterm elections.

“We’re here today because we recognize a simple fact: the one thing that has always stood between the American people and the elimination of our Second Amendment rights has been conservatives in Congress willing to fight for those rights,” he said.
