++BLACK BETWEEN SOUNDBITES++
3. SOUNDBITE (English) Donald Trump, Former U.S. President:
"And we have to- all we want is honest elections. If we have honest elections in Georgia, we have honest elections in Pennsylvania. We’re going to win by a lot.”
++BLACK FRAMES++
4. SOUNDBITE (English) Donald Trump, Former U.S. President:
“About who?”
(Reporter: About the assassination attempt, does the use of the AR-15 at all change your impression of peoples’ access to them?)
“ No, I don’t. Look, if you take away guns, she (Kamla Harris) wants to take away everyone’s gun. If you take away guns, can’t do it because people need the guns for protection.”
++BLACK FRAMES++
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Donald Trump, Former U.S. President:
(Reporter: Weapons embargo on Israel?)
“I’d be against it. That Kamala is in favor of not giving Israel weapons? That’s what I hear. Look, she’s been very, very bad Israel. And she’s been very bad to Jewish people. And I say it, it’s anybody I know is Jewish. And they would vote for Kamala over me. They should have their head examined. If you think about it, I gave them Golan Heights. I gave them the capital of Israel, Jerusalem, my building. I even built the embassy. I gave them no Iran deal. The problem is they didn’t do anything when Iran was broke. We could have made a deal so easily. I would have had a deal done within one week after the election with Iran. Iran can’t have a nuclear weapon. It’s very simple. We would have gotten along with Iran. I was looking forward to it and I was fine with Iran. You know, we hit them a couple of times pretty hard, but we would have been fine with Iran. But I got them. I terminated that deal. I got them the Abraham Accords.”

6. SOUNDBITE (English) Donald Trump, Former U.S. President:
(Reporter: FBI interview you on assassination attempt?)
“They have. The FBI came to see me about the shooter. I think they’ve done a very good job. And I think they did a very good job with respect to this other lunatic that they have in custody.”

STORYLINE:
Trump says almost being assassinated by a gunman has not changed his position opposing any new federal regulations or restrictions on weapons.

“People need the guns for protection,” he said, pointing to U.S. cities that have attempted local gun restrictions and still see violent crime.

Trump accused Vice President Kamala Harris of wanting to “take away everyone’s guns.”

Harris’ proposals call for universal background checks and a ban on certain near-military grade weapons like those that were banned from 1994 until a decade later, when then-President George W. Bush and Republicans on Capitol Hill allowed the ban to expire.
