The NYPD is gearing up to revoke Donald Trump’s concealed carry permit following multiple felony convictions handed down by the jury last week.
CNN reported the permit had actually been suspended on April 1, 2023, after Trump’s indictment on various charges. The NYPD is now moving beyond suspension to fully revoke the permit.
An investigation into the matter is underway by the NYPD, and it is anticipated that Trump’s permit will be revoked once it concludes. However, Trump “has the right to file a challenge to the move.” Trump is permitted to carry three specific handguns, two of which were surrendered to the NYPD on March 31, 2023. The third one was “lawfully moved to Florida,” according to a senior law enforcement official.
CBS News noted that Trump was convicted on 34 felony counts last week. Both his poll numbers and contributions to his campaign have increased since the convictions.
