A new lawsuit against the National Rifle Association (NRA) will likely hurt presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden with moderate voters this fall, “The Five” co-host Emily Compagno said Thursday.
“The question remains why now? Why this timing?” Compagno said of the move by New York Attorney General Letitia James to sue the NRA with the goal of dissolving the organization.
“It seems pretty obvious that it’s for a strategy in an election year … but I do note that it’s sort of questionable …” she added. “Joe Biden was already leading in the polls without this [gun rights] being a front-and center-issue and this seeks to disturb the moderates.
Hegseth then predicted the election will come down to “God, guns, Texas gold, energy, religious liberty, the ability to defend yourself and whether or not we will allow the industry to thrive,” Hegseth said.
This “is a front-and-center, kitchen table issue for a lot of people and the Second Amendment, Joe Biden wants to take it away, Donald Trump wants to preserve it,” he argued. “That’s one that he believes and a lot of people believe is a winner for him.”
