Amendment Quote by Rush Limbaugh
“The Democrats are between a rock and a hard place on it. They hate the Second Amendment. They want to get rid of it, but if they come out and say that they will lose the election, so they have to lie, as Hillary Clinton did. "I'm for the Second Amendment. I've been upstate in New York and I've seen those weird things these guys use when they hunt, and I'm not opposed to that, but the Heller decision and toddlers and Washington and I protected children and I think it's horrible."”

Weeks before any votes were cast, he was predicting widespread voter fraud. So if he loses, what does he do?” quote by Mara Liasson](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/6d5/mara-liasson-8465_accepting_donald-trump-has-said-he-will-accept-the_2472259.jpg)
