I wonder if the GOP comes to the defense of the NRA here. My bet is they cut ties, and let it die, disavowing it.

Yeah, I don't know that there's a path forward other than turning on the bad actors and seeing if their heads on a pike are enough.

Possibly. But that would be the second step.

The first would be saying this is the beginning of a Biden Deep State attempt to abolish the 2nd Amendment.

Well of course that's coming.

As is...ELECTION INTERFERENCE BY THE RADICAL ANTIFA DEMOCRAT PARTY.

I think those "but muh guns" folks are already locked in to one side, and feels like gun control is still very popular, and the NRA lost a lot of it's goodwill recently. https://news.gallup.com/poll/266804/ame ... itive.aspx

I feel like it might be cleaner to cut ties than support non-profit corruption.

Actually, Trump might be the signal which GOP will take its cue from. If Trump starts tweeting non-stop (which is likely due to the ties between Russia, Trump and the NRA) then the GOP will need to fall in line. Otherwise, I think it's cut ties and thanks for the countless seats the GOP got due to NRA support.

NRA has been a slush fund for its execs for a while, and recently seems to have been infiltrated by Russia to fold in propaganda/other misinformation to sow discord in the US.



Also, it has been a lobbying arm of the gun manufacturer for a while too.

I like the Second Amendment.

I hate the NRA.

A world where the second amendment remains in tact, without the craziness of the NRA and their ability to block some reasonable and limited restrictions/regulation on gun ownership seems like a good thing.

Am I missing something though?

But that's what's going to be hi-larious about all this.

Trump will portray this as an attack on the 2nd Amendment.

Trumpers will follow that lead.

And in so doing...they'll be mad...about something that defrauded them, and used their money not for 2nd Amendment advocacy purposes, but for personal enrichment.

It’s hilarious, but also so so sad.

Folks are so stubborn about preserving their perceived rights, and way of life, or whatever, that they won’t even stop and consider the fact that maybe the NRA really was conning them all along.

I imagine the conspiracy circles shall have a field day with this one.
