Former President Donald Trump could find himself in more legal trouble after a priceless gun was reportedly auctioned off from his Mar-a-Lago collection, possibly violating the conditions of his federal indictment.
During a charity event at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home last weekend, a gun described as a "one of a kind Trump Glock from the 45th President of the United States Donald J. Trump" was sold at the auction, according to pictures and videos obtained by Meidas Touch News. That could land Trump in further legal trouble as federal law prohibits individuals who are under federal indictment from buying or selling firearms.
As laid out by Justice Clarence Thomas, writing for the conservative majority, for a firearm regulation to be justifiable, “the government must demonstrate that the regulation is consistent with the Nation’s historical tradition.”
