Ohio’s Democrat Attorney General candidate Elliot Forhan just handed the 2A community a silver-plated gift on a platter: a resurfaced video where he chillingly declares, I am going to kill Donald Trump. This isn’t some edgy meme or hyperbolic tweet—it’s a direct threat from a man vying to wield the full power of the state’s top law enforcement office. In the clip, Forhan doesn’t mince words, delivering the line with a straight face that screams unfiltered intent. For those tracking political violence, this lands like a tracer round in a powder keg, especially post-July 13th when the Secret Service’s failures already exposed how real these threats can get.
Dig deeper, and the hypocrisy stings like a ricochet. Forhan’s running on a platform that parrots the same gun-control playbook we’ve seen nationwide—more red-flag laws, assault weapon bans, universal background checks—all while fantasizing about capping the guy who’s arguably the most pro-2A president in modern history. Imagine the outrage if a Republican candidate dropped a line like that; the media circus would demand immediate disqualification, FBI door-kicks, and endless threat to democracy screeds. Yet here, crickets from the left-leaning echo chamber, underscoring the double standard that treats leftist rage as passion and conservative self-defense as insurrection. For the 2A community, this is exhibit A in why we can’t trust anti-gun zealots with badges and gavels—they’ll preach disarmament for thee but not for me when it comes to settling political scores.
The implications? Pure ammo for pro-2A warriors this election cycle. Blast this far and wide: tag it on X, share it in forums, meme it into oblivion. It spotlights how gun-grabbers project their own violent impulses onto law-abiding carriers, justifying their disarmament fetish. Ohio voters deserve to know if their next AG is more assassin than advocate, and if Forhan’s unhinged rhetoric flies, it only emboldens the real threats we face daily. Stay vigilant, stay armed—because when they say shall not be infringed, they mean it for everyone except their targets.
