Original Note:
The post highlights Trump's comment about gangs using MK-47s. He should have said "AK-47s." The relevance is that he claimed to be an expert on guns, and his mistake undermines his claim of expertise. That is the point. He has used this story before & did not mention MK-47s. https://www.salon.com/2024/09/05/repeats-debunked-venezuelan-gang-conspiracy-they-had-ak-47s-the-ultimate-guns/
