“1.) start endless accusations of maleficence against their leadership. Keep the pressure on until the membership splits with the leadership.

2.) this will hurt their fundraising. If members are at odds with leadership they won’t send money.

3,) hit them multiple lawsuits to tie them up and bankrupt them.”


And make them spend a lot of money defending themselves that could/would have been spent on political ads.

It takes an LARGE external event like this to inspire leadership changes.. unfortunately a lot of this is political, but that’s what happens when a board doesn’t keep things in check.

Could you possibly spin that any more?
The reason the NRA is falling apart is because of the NRA.
The smart people see through their BS.

From the Jim Shephard article below


"At the risk of angering five-million other gun owners, the NRA hasn’t been exactly what you’d call active at anything (other than non-stop fundraising) for some time.

Stretched budgets, staff cuts and growing legal fees have put the NRA to the sidelines in this very important election cycle. That’s not opinion, that’s fact.

The NRA spent approximately $30 million supporting President Trump’s 2016 campaign. They didn’t have those millions to spend this year.

Behind-the-scenes infighting that has continued uninterrupted since the “Imbroglio in Indianapolis” when Mr. LaPierre and his supporters eliminated anyone who dared raise questions about the organization’s management should go quiet.

Unfortunately, the complaints raised by those “dissidents” spoke directly to the matters listed in the New York Attorney General’s suit. Now, instead of insiders asking for corrective actions, a District Attorney seeks to dissolve the 149-year old organization entirely'."
