Newt Gingrich Slams Gov. Grisham’s Unconstitutional Gun Ban: A Reminder of Liberal Politicians’ Overreach

In a recent interview on ‘The Ingraham Angle,’ former House Speaker Newt Gingrich took a cynical tone as he discussed the impact of ‘Bidenomics’ on average Americans and a federal judge blocking New Mexico’s ’emergency’ gun ban. Gingrich wasted no time in criticizing New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham for her unconstitutional ban on carrying firearms in Bernalillo County, which she claimed was due to a “public health emergency.” According to Gingrich, this ban served as a reminder of the behavior of liberal politicians during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Gingrich’s first point was that liberal politicians, when in power, believe they are above the law. They issue dictatorial orders that reflect their prejudices, ignoring the Constitution and prioritizing the rule of power over the rule of law. Additionally, he claimed that these politicians base their decisions on false information and phony analysis. Gingrich argued that there is no evidence to suggest that law-abiding citizens carrying weapons are dangerous, while criminals disregard the law entirely. Thus, the governor’s ban would disarm innocent citizens without affecting lawbreakers.

Furthermore, Gingrich accused liberal politicians of exempting themselves from the rules they impose on others. In this case, Gov. Grisham allowed her security force to carry guns while prohibiting ordinary citizens from doing so. He also contended that these politicians impose their will and ideology on citizens who have differing views, using the power of government to coerce them against their will.

According to Gingrich, when confronted with opposition, liberal politicians resort to lying, assuming that the public or the news media will not challenge them. He criticized Gov. Grisham for issuing an unconstitutional gun ban that received bipartisan rebuke and left gun control activists speechless. Gingrich argued that no sane governor would issue such an order if they had any understanding of the Constitution and Second Amendment case law.

Gingrich highlighted a poll conducted by RMG, which showed that the American people reject Gov. Grisham’s anti-free citizen bias. The poll found that a majority of voters believe that banning private ownership of guns would make Americans less safe. Additionally, a majority of voters would rather live in a community where people are allowed to own guns than in one where guns are outlawed. Gingrich used these findings to argue that Gov. Grisham’s actions are out of touch with the American people and exemplify the radicalism of the left.

In conclusion, Gingrich criticized Gov. Grisham’s assault on the Second Amendment as another example of how out-of-touch Big Government Socialists are with the American people. He argued that the radical left is determined to use the power of government to force their agenda on the populace, regardless of their views. Gingrich emphasized the importance of upholding President Abraham Lincoln’s principle of government by the people and warned against the left’s desire to force obedience regardless of the law.
