It's a shame the NRA has become such a Russia loving, political arm of the GOP... Probably will not help their declining popularity and membership among the general public.
I do agree that the NRA has become political but what else should they be when the Democrats are vowing to dismantle the Second amendment?
I don't know if Trump has ever even held a gun before but he either respects the Constitution or he knows better than to go after law abiding gun owners.
If a Democrat gets elected in 2020 especially one from the current crop of Pro Big Brother Big Government Socialists we will see the attacks on gun owners ramp up again. Kamala Harris was on a rant the other day about "assault weapons".
If a Dem gets elected in 2020 we will see the ranks of the NRA swell again with outraged freedom loving Americans.
Gun ownership is at its lowest even after the crazy buying spree during Obama's tenure. Those record gun sales hid the fact that less and less Americans own guns. Instead of the NRA focusing on what those existing members or potential members would want, they just went full political. The NRA alienated any potential members from the left all the way to Center-Right because people that did not like their political pushes and videos post school or mass shootings refused to join. I also have a suspicion that the NRA leadership ignored member concerns because of the money flowing in for political use. Membership dues cant compete with million dollar donations from PACS and Billionaires and Russia.

I have often found that the people who are most afraid of handling a gun, who don’t have the confidence to learn how to properly shoot a gun, and who want to depend on others to protect them and their families, are most vocal against goals of the NRA.
Are they political? Sure. They support those who share the opinion that we should kill the bad guys before they kill us.
Sort of like Planned Parenthood. Are they political. Sure. They support those who share the opinion that we should kill near birth babies. Why? Don’t ask me.

Or, maybe because they choose as their president someone who's not a convicted felon for no other reason than legal technicalities.
