Special counsel Robert Mueller's team has expressed interest in the Trump campaign's relationship with the National Rifle Association during the 2016 campaign. "When I was interviewed by the special counsel's office, I was asked about the Trump campaign and our dealings with the NRA," Sam Nunberg, a former Trump campaign aide, told CNN. The special counsel's team was curious to learn more about how Donald Trump and his operatives first formed a relationship with the NRA and how Trump wound up speaking at the group's annual meeting in 2015, just months before announcing his presidential bid, Nunberg said. Nunberg's interview with Mueller's team in February 2018 offers the first indication that the special counsel has been probing the Trump campaign's ties to the powerful gun-rights group. As recently as about a month ago, Mueller's investigators were still raising questions about the relationship between the campaign and the gun group, CNN has learned.
A spokesman for the special counsel's office declined to comment. The NRA did not respond to a request for comment. President Trump was not asked about his connection with the NRA in the written questions Mueller posed to him, according to a source familiar with the questions. The NRA had already come under scrutiny from lawmakers for its massive spending in support of Trump in 2016 and its ties to Russian nationals. Maria Butina, a Russian national, pleaded guilty in DC federal court in December to engaging in a conspiracy against the US. As part of her plea, she acknowledged that she attempted to infiltrate GOP political circles and influence US relations with Russia, in part by building ties with prominent members of the NRA.

They locked that young Russian girl ob prison for 6 months to “prove” that the NRA is rife with Russian spies.
She was a political prisoner - and we are a lawless police state. The NRA is pure America. F Muwller- traitor to the USMC uniform.
I think Mueller is trying desperately to get Trump to fire him so he doesn’t have to release a report that actually clears him. He’s got nothing and is pushing the envelope in hopes of getting fired.
Hey, Mule Face, I Am the NRA. And I voted for Trump. You gotta problem with that? IF so, tough crap. Stick it where the sun don’t shine.
I’m a member. Should I wait for a subpoena, or volunteer for an interview? Maybe ALL of us members ought to volunteer.
I always liked the design of the ape carbine in those movies.
Was President Trump ever tied to the Uranium 1
transfer for the Clinton Foundation which Mueller
delivered?
Or to the coverup of the murders of witnesses
like Mueller and Comey?
Some were made in Poland...
Using Mueller’s logic anybody who saw the contents of my gun safe would swear I was a Kremlin agent. :)
I guess anything Trump did is now a crime. Even alot of the accusations involve things Democrats have been doing for years but suddenly, for DJT, it’s illegal. This is beyond a witch-hunt.
I would not put too much stock in this. I believe that the SC investigator was asking about the NRA and Trump, but after all, who are we talking about here? We’re talking about a bunch of angry Anti Trump Dems disguised as Special Counsel investigators, who for their own personal reasons wanted to search for whatever they could find about the evil NRA. This has been their GRAND opportunity to ‘fish’ for anything and everything. In the end, it’s not going anywhere.

1A sudden, violent, and illegal seizure of power from a government.
Mueller’s portion of the “Resistance” is not violent, yet, but otherwise, this investigation fits the definition of a coup. Globalists with no respect for the rule of law are willing to use any means necessary to overturn the 2016 Presidential Election. America’s enemies on the left no longer accept elections as a legitimate means of choosing our government, and they have not accepted election results that did not go their way since George W. Bush in Florida 2000. The Russians wanted us divided, and the elitists delivered for their Russian allies.
The absurdity of investigating Trump’s ties to an organization that exists specifically to support the Constitution should concern even the democrats. But that’s only if they believed in the rule of law.
They want to know exactly how he won so they can prevent him from doing so again.
And I want a date with Penelope Cruz circa 1999.
I have a better shot.
He must think the NRA means Nasty Russian Associates.
Get it over with Bob. Time to wrap it up.
Is it a crime to have dealings with the NRA?
If you watch “Crap Not News” it is ,LOL
That’s one of the reasons I voted for Trump.
So the President had a campaign relationship with @ 5million America citizens! OMG how could he!
“As part of her plea, she acknowledged that she attempted to infiltrate GOP political circles and influence US relations with Russia, in part by building ties with prominent members of the NRA.”
Where’s the crime? Mueller is the crime. Sessions should go to prison for enabling this.
God forgive me but I HATE Sessions...Pius bastard! Will go down as the biggest traitorous Benedict Arnold in American history!
