Secret Service spoke to Trump about ‘Second Amendment’ remark: report

The Secret Service has spoken to Donald Trump's campaign about the candidate's remark that gun owners might take action against Hillary Clinton.

The agency has had "more than one conversation" with Trump about his rhetoric, the network reported Wednesday.

Trump aides reportedly told the Secret Service that the GOP nominee did not intend to incite violence.

The conversation is an unprecedented step for the agency to take with one of its own protectees.

It came after several Democrats called on the Secret Service to investigate Trump for the eyebrow-raising comments, which many interpreted as a veiled threat against Clinton's life.

Speaking at a Tuesday rally in North Carolina, the bombastic real estate mogul was discussing what would happen to the Supreme Court if his Democratic opponent were to win the White House in November, claiming she wants to "abolish the Second Amendment."

"By the way, if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks," he said.

"Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is. I don't know. But - but I'll tell you what. That will be a horrible day."

Trump's comments were widely condemned as reckless.

His campaign quickly put out a statement saying that he meant that National Rifle Association and other gun rights supporters could stop Clinton from winning the election - not use violence against her.

He also blamed the media for misinterpreting his remarks.

"Media desperate to distract from Clinton's anti-2A stance. I said pro-2A citizens must organize and get out vote to save our Constitution!" he tweeted Tuesday night.
