    “ 'There is reason to believe that the NRA ... made illegal, unreported and excessive in-kind contributions to Donald J. Trump for President Inc. in the form of coordinated communications,' states the complaint filed Friday by the Campaign Legal Center and the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence.....

    " 'This is some of the most compelling evidence we’ve ever seen of illegal coordination. The NRA can legally make unlimited expenditures to support the Trump campaign only if the organizations are completely independent. But if the same people buying ads for the Trump campaign are also placing the NRA’s pro-Trump ads, then the NRA’s spending is not at all independent,' Brendan Fischer of CLC said in a statement....

    "With so much gun manufacturer money behind him, the president rarely addresses the role guns play in the increasing number of mass shootings in the nation. In fact, he consistently urges that more people be armed, including teachers at schools. He suggested armed guards patrol synagogues after the mass shooting in October at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh."

    Another scandal for the NRA. They're already being investigated for funneling Russian money into US in order to get Trump elected.

    If you call that "collusion", then the relationship between certain Democrat politicians and Planned Parenthood is a diabolical plot!

    All one hundred and thirty three pages have been thoroughly reviewed, and nothing resembling "evidence" was found within them. This is nothing more than plain hysteria, speculation, hearsay, and a blatant attempt at the causation/correlation substitution fallacy paraded around to try and deceive the intellectually inept into believing accusation is evidence. This is the Brett Kavanaugh hearing all over again.

    I don't have a problem with the NRA backing a candidate.

    I don't like the NRA laking money from Russia.

    There is no evidence that such occurred.

    And they haven't, that's already been proven.
