With this guy\u2019s reported criminal history, he should not have had a firearm. But guess what? Gun laws have never stopped someone determined to commit mayhem.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gottlieb is pleased that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has promised an investigation by authorities in the Sunshine State, which could yield more valuable information about the suspect, and how he was able to get so close to the former president.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis sort of thing should never happen even once,\u201d Gottlieb observed. \u201cBut now it has happened to Donald Trump twice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-about-ccrkba\">About CCRKBA <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>With more than 650,000 members and supporters nationwide, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (www.ccrkba.org) is one of the nation&#8217;s premier gun rights organizations.
