You know I'm no big fan of Trump, but I initially read "Second Amendment people" as the NRA. That is, the usual NRA headlock on Washington could continue and block judges just as they've blocked all gun control legislation for the last 20 years.
Of course, Trump isn't a normal politician, and by having a long history of inflammatory statements, it makes the "I am advocating an armed overthrow of the government in case I lose" interpretation equally plausible. And in the end, it doesn't matter what he meant, it matters how it's interpreted. And it's the latter interpretation that seems to be sticking.
