The Russian ties to the NRA have been well documented, but this Senate report reveals the deeper ties the NRA had to the Russians and how they aided them to help get Trump elected. We’ve heard about the 2015 Russian trip that NRA bigs made to Russia, but this report goes further.

Drawing on contemporaneous emails and private interviews, an 18-month probe by the Senate Finance Committee’s Democratic staff found that the NRA underwrote political access for Russian nationals Maria Butina and Alexander Torshin more than previously known — even though the two had declared their ties to the Kremlin.

Here’s a link to the report. Document Viewer : NPR

That just came over MSNBC. Who said they’re just for guns? Not so.

also remembering loooong threads trying to distort the point that Trump got help from NRA in 2016

Of course. The NRA has been revealed to be a really despicable outfit. What real American group would help Russians get someone elected president?

What would one expect from a blood cult like organization that took it’s turn into crazy gun love with a convicted murderer being elected president in the 70s…

The left in general absolutely is. That’s what all the witch hunts are about.

Tantrum.

Keep firing off the catch phrases our very fat dear leader is feeding you. Gooddad. Good boy.

A little bitter that we have the best president since Reagan?

You can’t troll me, I don’t care what you think or say.

gooddad409 · 2019-09-28T16:24:50.609Z

Trolling? Nope. I just state facts. You can pass right on by my posts if you choose to.

Your post was not a fact, it was your opinion. Learning to recognize the difference would make far more effective at debate.

Seems the POTUS went on bended knee to the NRA for money. Seems he his bought and paid for.

No it was factual. I realize in your opinion you disagree.

The accusation has nothing to do with the POTUS.

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen someone try to create distance between a republican and the NRA on this board before.

WuWei · 2019-09-28T17:47:19.043Z

Read the report.

hwyflier · 2019-09-28T17:55:42.330Z

I have.

WuWei · 2019-09-28T18:01:43.734Z

Then you know it has nothing to do with the POTUS.

hwyflier · 2019-09-28T18:08:17.625Z

The NRA has nothing to do with the republican party or Trump?

As I’ve said, I’ve never seen someone try to distance a republican from the NRA on this board before. This is new.

WuWei · 2019-09-28T18:14:10.536Z

The fact is the report is about a trip to Russia in 2015 that may be in conflict with tax laws.

Not Trump.

You want to debate whether or not Brownell’s 2015 trip violates rax exempt status?

That is boring, but ok. Go ahead.

About as fun as discussing whether gooddad thinks trump is the greatest president since Reagan, or the most awesomest president after Reagan.
