This is one I’ll defend Rand Paul on.
I wish I could be a bigger fan of the NRA, but it doesn’t do enough IMO.
The Left loves it so much, it criticizes it all the time to make it look like it really does a lot. It also over estimates it’s clout. It also overstates the number of members as if it’s members hold vast power and screw up everything. Not hardly.
Well to be fair, I believe the NRA does have millions of members by some measures.
People are watching this deal, and it can’t possibly help the NRA, who has had some struggles getting everyone to kiss their ring and stay in the wagon. Lots of complaints out there and gun owners are fortunate the NRA is not the only game in town.
Rand is right again, the NRA looks petulant. In some quarters and in some cases the folks are going to like his enemies list.
