Trump Touts Weapons ‘Super Range,’ Guns and Tariffs at Montana Rally
Trump announced a weapons-testing “Super Range” in Montana while defending gun rights and tariffs.
President Donald Trump announced the establishment of a new Super Range in Montana for testing advanced weapons and technologies during a campaign rally on Wednesday. The range would focus on testing potential autonomous weapons, space and electronic warfare technology, supersonics, and hypersonics. Trump emphasized the range would ensure the American military always remained superior.
The rally, held in Kalispell, supported Republican candidate Aaron Flint in the race for Montana's 1st Congressional District against Democrat Sam Forstag. Trump used the event to defend gun rights and criticized Democrats' plans to remove Americans' Second Amendment rights. He warned that if Democrats won, they would take away guns, stating that wild animals would benefit from such a change.
The president also made gun rights a major theme of his remarks, promising that voting Republican would ensure the Second Amendment would not be infringed upon. Trump contrasted NRA ratings for Republican and Democratic candidates in Montana's races, stating that Republican candidates had received top ratings while Democratic candidates received lower grades.
He also mentioned expanding hunting access on public lands and defended his tariff policies as beneficial for American sawmills, despite recent inflation figures contradicting his claim that inflation had dropped to 1.7 percent.
