The new American Rifleman magazine, the NRA house organ, got to me today. In it, the NRA leadership spent several pages patting themselves on the back for Donald Trump's win. NRA backed Trump from the very beginning and are overjoyed at his win.
Aside from a few Democrats bad mouthing the NRA, the MSM hasn't let out a peep about how effective they were. Actually, the NRA has several million dues paying members, mostly single issue, support of second amendment voters. The NRA magazine goes to all of them. Every election American Rifleman will have a two page center spread, listing every office in each state, from US senator down to dogcatcher, and naming all the candidates, and giving each candidate a grade, A thru F, on where they stand on the second amendment. The membership reads the magazine and finds it highly credible, much more so than any of the MSM.
I'm thinking that several million motivated single issue voters swung more weight in the election than anything the Russians could even think of doing. Funny that the MSM never writes about it. Probably the MSM writers are all city boys who don't like guns.
