Joe and Kamala are not.

That is not the country I want to live in.

it's quite possible if not probable that Kamala Harris is familiar with carrying a gun.
When Mayor of San Francisco, Diane Feinstein was known to have a carry permit.

But the American president and vice president should not carry weapons.

But they are surrounded by highly trained security who are literally willing to take the bullet to protect them. It really isn't neccessary for them to be armed

(18,486 posts)7. That would be extremely dangerous
They have Secret Service to protect them. And the last thing SS needs is to have their protectees packing heat.
