“Now is the time to unite. If your preferred candidate dropped out of the race, it’s time to get over it,” Cox said earlier in his remarks.

Yeah you would think these NeverTrump people would give a damn about their 2nd Amendment rights being taken away under a Clinton Administration but it seems like they are A OK with that

What will they do when GOA and every other gun rights group endorses him? The NT movement is a feckless act of futility.

They just actually endorsed him:

NRA Endorses Donald Trump at National Convention

http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2016-election/trump-aims-assure-wary-gun-rights-supporters-nra-speech-n577296

The National Rifle Association endorsed Donald Trump at its national convention here on Friday, a late show of support from the nation’s biggest pro-gun-rights group for the presumptive GOP nominee.

But the endorsement was as much a show of opposition to likely Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton as it was a show of support for Trump. Before he announced the endorsement, NRA-ILA Executive Director Chris Cox told the crowd that “we have to unite and we have to unite right now.”

Backstage at the NRA. This picture says it all. All eyes are fixated in the same direction. No doubt who the alpha is here.

Documentation of Hillary's take on the NRA

At a private fundraiser in New York, Hillary Clinton railed against the NRA.
“I’m going to speak out, I’m going to do everything I can to rally people against this pernicious, corrupting influence of the NRA and we’re going to do whatever we can.”
Hillary Clinton, September 2015

At a private fundraiser in New York, Hillary Clinton claimed the Supreme Court was wrong on the Constitutional right to bear arms.
“We’ve got to go after this, and here again, the Supreme Court is wrong on the Second Amendment. And I am going to make that case every chance I get.”
Hillary Clinton, September 2015

At a private fundraiser in New York, Hillary Clinton railed against the NRA and George W. Bush.
“I was proud when my husband took them on, and we were able to ban assault weapons, but he had to put a sunset on so 10 years later. Of course Bush wouldn’t agree to reinstate them.”
Hillary Clinton, September 2015
