If your political filter sees a president trying to become a dictator while strongly supporting gun ownership for the citizens who would rise up against such a thing, you might want to replace your filter.

That's the point. Everyone knows civilians will never successfully rise up against the US government, so it's a poor argument to imply it could stand in the way of someone becoming a dictator. Trump knows gun ownership is not threat, so why not support it?

The millions who own guns are the larger threat because if you took their guns away you would have tens of millions willing to fight and die to end a dictatorship. And much of the military supports gun rights. You’d risk civil war, and China and Russia would back any rebels.
