    The Republican party have reduced their ads to the level of the NRA!

    I dropped out of the NRA back in the early 1990's. I was the president of a county gun club. I worked my ass off and set up two NRA banquets and got another county club to have the same kind of money gathering. They sold tickets for a drawing on za 4WD Chevrolet pick up.

    Between my two dinners and the one I started, collected $50,000 for the NRA.

    It was 2:00AM on a work day when I got a call from the regional NRA guy telling me I wasn't doing enough!

    Now, because I once gave the Trump campaign $100, I get a daily dozen requests from Trump asking for more money!

    Screw the NRA! Screw Trump. Both of them have spent more money accusing me of not doing enough.

    So, you're going to vote for biden?

    Agree with you on the NRA though. I dropped out long, long ago.

      That 0200 phone call sounds very suspiciously like a scam or prank call.

      If one ever donates to the USO, be ready for a never-ending tsunami of emails! Still, that's "how it goes".

        I belong to the NRA thru an endowment subscription. I get their magazine, American Rifleman, every month for free for life. My Grandson enjoys the magazine too.

          NO!! I dealt with this nut for three years! No matter what I did, no matter how much I contributed in both time and money it was NEVER enough. Same as Trump is today. They spend 90% of the dollars workers and common people have contributed, gigging them for not having given enough!.

          I will vote for Trump again but wish there were somebody else that would be better. Only 2 times I have voted for a Republican candidate (Reagan) all my other votes were against the Democrat.

            That's what I thought. A call at 2:00 a.m. I've gotten calls from drunk friends at that hr. but not from real companies. If they called at elevyn I set them straight.
            If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.
