A Democratic congressman from Long Island implied that Americans should grab weapons and oppose President Trump by force, if the commander-in-chief doesnt follow the Constitution.
Rep. Tom Suozzi made the remark to constituents at a town hall last week, saying that folks opposed to Trump might resort to the Second Amendment.
Its really a matter of putting public pressure on the president, Suozzi said in a newly released video of the March 12 talk in Huntington. This is where the Second Amendment comes in quite frankly, because you know, what if the president was to ignore the courts? What would you do? What would we do?
A listener then blurts out, Whats the second amendment?
The left-leaning Democrat says The second amendment is the right to bear arms.
The spectators laughed some nervously. Republicans were not amused.
This video is incredibly disturbing. Its surreal to watch a sitting member of Congress suggest that his constituents should take up arms against the President of the United States, said National Republican Campaign Committee spokesman Chris Martin.

I grew up in Huntington....a LONG time ago.
I have a lot of relatives in Suffolk and Nassau Counties.
Some of them voted for Hitlery Rotten Criminal, but many of them....most of them....told me they voted for Donald Trump.
Gee, the Democrats didn’t seem to care when Obama urinated all over the Constitution.
Well, some folks have been waiting patiently for the shoe to drop.
I understand, a sitting congress critter should not advocate for armed insurrection against the president. However, he is correct, that is what the 2nd amendment is for. I do caution him to be careful of what side of history he comes down on. It does make me laugh that these evil men know what the Constitution is for, they just choose to ignore it and twist it to their own nefarious ends. The 2nd amendment goes two ways. So, as others have said... Bring It!
We put up with an ineligible usurper for eight long years who ignored the Constitution and laws without resorting to violence.
Come at me bro.
That sounds like a threat.
Libs are unaware of reality, and so they can’t count up the odds against them.
Trump hasn’t defied the courts or even - to my knowledge - threatened to. But liberal icon FDR threatened to. Liberal icon FDR also interred Japanese-Americans and firebombed cities.
Suozzi should be charged with fomenting sedition.
Our Attorney General should be all over this immediately
Where the hell is he?
You going to lead them Souzzi?
Smashing Violence in the Face!
Time to get every dem on the record of supporting or disavowing his 2nd amendment statement. Need a list of those to round up for orange jumpsuits.
They will just show they have no respect for the Bill of Rights.
Scary isn’t it? They started going insane when they lost in 2000. They’ll start a civil war when their beloved Deep Staters are jailed.
