"WASHINGTON
Several prominent Russians, some in President Vladimir Putin’s inner circle or high in the Russian Orthodox Church, now have been identified as having contact with National Rifle Association officials during the 2016 U.S. election campaign, according to photographs and an NRA source."
Oh, sure, Putin is just misunderstood. I bet deep down, he is a pussycat who simply wants to be friends with us and means us no harm. After all, would Donald Trump be friends with someone who was out to get us ?
It makes perfect sense that a russian oligarch wants to understand the NRA. Russia has very strict gun control. But Putin wants it to be very lax. So he needs to understand the american system and the NRA's role in expanding gun rights.
I mean this makes sense right. What other reason could they have?
Wow! The reasons are quite obvious....maybe you can THINK a bit. Why would Russia create fake Facebook groups that were anti-Muslim and then have fake rallies scheduled? Answer: Same Reason. To rile up the riff-raff.
The Russians wanted to fix our election..they wanted Trump to win. So the NRA support was just one small part of the whole Facebook and other "ad buys" effort.
"The contacts have emerged amid a deepening Justice Department investigation into whether Russian banker and lifetime NRA member Alexander Torshin illegally channeled money through the gun rights group to add financial firepower to Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential bid"
"U.S. investigators want to know if relationships between the Russian leaders and the nation’s largest gun rights group went beyond vodka toasts and gun factory tours, evolving into another facet of the Kremlin’s broad election-interference operation."
You'd have to be living under a rock to suggest they have NRA interest due to their internal arms policies.

LOL that's why Kalashnikov and Molot rifles can't be imported and Trump expanded sanctions against Russian manufacturer Molot...
Oh those Ruskies really got their money's worth out of the NRA alright...

Wow!. You completely missed my sarcasm. I though it was obvious,.
You are only half right..........at least half of the country DOES care, it is only the Trumpee cult who think this should somehow be ok and normal. Trump called it right when he said he could shoot someone on main street and not lose a single voter. Con men always know their prey.
The awesomeness of what's going on right now can barely be measured. Someone needs to invent a butt hurt meter.
