“WE WILL BEAT THE ARMS INDUSTRY”
In claiming they made gun trafficking a federal crime for the first time, Biden also took aim at gun lobbyists. Biden noted that they should be held accountable, noting that the goal of the gun industry is only to make a profit. Biden: “We will defeat the arms industry.” he used the phrase.
Explaining that the fentanyl problem at the border, Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador raised the issue of weapons, Biden said: “We are sending dangerous weapons, especially offensive weapons, to Mexico. They want us to stop it, to cut it off at the border. For God’s sake, what would we become if we didn’t do that?” he said. (BRITISH AUTOMOBILE CLUB)
