"SNIP......

“President Trump met on Friday with Wayne LaPierre, the chief executive of the National Rifle Association, to discuss how the NRA could provide financial support for the president’s defense as he faces political headwinds, including impeachment,” the New York Times reports.

“It was not clear whether Mr. Trump asked Mr. LaPierre for his support, or if the idea was pitched by the NRA. But in return for the support, Mr. LaPierre asked that the White House ‘stop the games’ over gun control legislation.”

1. Ummm....that would be illegal. He can't stop, can he?

3. Blatant attempt to command the airwaves and internets with catnip

and get impeachment off the MSM. Why else would they say it publicly. IMHO

[KewlKat]

2. I thought the NRA was teetering on bankruptcy?

[Fullduplexxx]

4. russian money laundered thru the nra

[htuttle]

5. Yet another illegal quid pro quo

You can't sell legislation for money -- at least not openly. You're supposed to keep it on the down low.

6. So what caliber and firing rate is the NRA recommending?

7. This is really going to help with the pukes that started turning on him in the suburbs. Maybe he's

broke.

8. Ted Lieu says, if true it's a felony

He can’t stop breaking the law!

13. needz moar feloniez

If more guns will solve the mass murder problem, more felonies will solve the criminal pResident problem.

Welcome to The Twitler Zone.

9. And this supports the supposed NRA mission of gun safety how?

Their tax status is already being questioned (per NPR). They’d be fools to do this. Maybe acting as a conduit for Kremlin money. That would fit the recent pattern.

10. The NRA leadership needs to be charged under RICO statutes, tried, convicted, imprisoned and

the entire organisation needs to be broken up. Moscow Mitch and Barr and can stand in the dock with them, one of many trials for those two traitors.

11. He is both brazen and bat shit crazy on steroids

ITTMF!!
