Oh, and here we go with the goal-post moving. "They're the largest donor. No, wait, I only meant single issue donors
They are absolutely the largest donor by orders of magnitude on this issue...and they have bled into many others as they became more political
The NRA talks and the GOP jumps.
And they get tens of millions from Russia...
Oh, well, since you said it AGAIN, that must make it true. I thought you were full of shit until you repeated yourself.
Facts, tweeko. Tell me facts. Your opinions and assertions mean nothing to me, because if you told me the sky was blue, I'd go outside and check.
Save the name calling if you want to sound like anything approaching a reasonable person

The National Rifle Association’s overall spending surged by more than $100 million in 2016, surpassing any previous annual NRA spending totals on record, according to an audit obtained by the Center for Responsive Politics.
The explosion in spending came as the NRA poured unprecedented amounts of money into efforts to deliver Donald Trump the White House and help Republicans hold both houses of Congress.
The audit filed with the state of North Carolina shows that the NRA’s
total expenditures exploded to more than $419 million, up from $312 million the prior year.
The jump is even more stark when compared to its spending during the previous two presidential elections in 2012 and 2008, when their outlays topped out at
$261 million and
$204 million, respectively, according to similar audits.These spending totals include all of the NRA’s operations in 2016, from law enforcement programs and hunter services to education and training.
