 Pro-DeSantis PAC launches ad criticizing Trump as ‘gun grabber’
 

A political action committee supporting Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) 
running for president launched an ad on Friday criticizing former 
President Trump as a “gun-grabber” over comments he has made supporting 
gun control legislation. 

The ad from the Never Back Down PAC, which was founded by former senior 
Trump administration official Ken Cuccinelli, states that Trump promised 
members of the National Rifle Association (NRA) that he would back them 
but argues he “abandoned us” after Second Amendment rights “came under 
attack.” 

The ad features comments Trump has made about standing up to the NRA and 
supporting gun control measures and accuses him of agreeing with 
prominent Democrats, like Vice President Kamala Harris and Sens. Chris 
Murphy (D-Conn.) and Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), on gun control.

The footage also shows Trump telling Republican colleagues that some of 
them are “petrified” of the NRA, but they should not be and that the 
organization has more power over them than him. 

Some comments Trump made include declaring support for red flag laws, 
which allow individuals to petition a court to try to take away someone’s 
firearms if they have reason to believe they might pose a danger to 
themselves or others. The ad also shows Trump supporting a ban on bump 
stocks, increasing background checks, and raising the minimum age for 
buying a weapon from 18 to 21. 

“Trump cut and run like a coward,” the ad states. “Trump the gun-grabber 
doesn’t deserve a second chance.”

Cuccinelli launched the PAC in February to try to draft DeSantis into 
running for the Republican nomination in 2024. DeSantis has not 
officially said whether he is considering a run for the White House, but 
he has been the subject of intense rumors about his possible candidacy 
and has consistently placed second in hypothetical polling for a 
Republican primary. 

The ad’s release came as Trump appeared at the NRA’s annual conference on 
Friday. He said he would be the group’s “loyal friend” and was the “most 
pro-gun” president the country has had.
