Just a couple of years ago the NRA was on the skids, overwhelmed with scandal and financial malfeasance. Apparently its members are fine with all that. Wayne LaPierre, who stole vast sums from the organization is still at the helm and he spoke to rapturous applause — as did a bunch of others. Some highlights from Aaron Rupar. (You can subscribe to his substack here.) Wayne LaPierre says at the NRA event that "gun hating politicians should never go to bed unafraid of what this association and all of our millions of members can do to their political careers" 😳 holy shit Pence is getting booed loudly at the NRA event "We don't need gun control" — Pence at the NRA forum blames recent mass shooting on trans people and mental illness and tries to absolve guns Pence calls for armed guards in every school in America Pence calls for mass shooters to be put to death within months the NRA forum is not especially pumped about Asa Hutchinson's veiled shots at Trump DeSantis is doing a video message to the NRA forum instead of being there in person. Low energy. lol not a single person claps when Nikki Haley's video message is announced Tim Scott also has a video message that nobody is excited for very normal stuff here lol Kristi Noem is signing an executive order at the NRA forum Chris Sununu's jabs at Trump (who he does not name) at the NRA forum are being met with…
