As did I. Had been a yearly member since the 50s and almost quit when they ran Neal Knox out. But the year they brought Heston on board he came to Hot Springs Arkansas and gave a speech at the convention center and ask for life members and I joined up thinking he would change things for the better.... maybe Trump being in will help turn it around for them, he can sic Doge on them.. JohnI guess I had a "Senior Moment". I threw away my ballot. I was sick of hearing about the corruption in the NRA. Been a life member since 1978. Hopefully the new leadership gets back to basics. Kinda sounds like they went the way of the government leadership.
If I understand what your posting says ...Personally I feel to think things will change is delusional.
The NRA didn't erode to where it is over-night , and it will take time to get straightened out . I have to laugh about those whining that Trump isn't getting prices down already , when he's only been in office for a month . It tokk Comrade Traitor Joe six months to push the Inflation and prices up to record numbers . How about we give Trump at least that much time to see what he can do to fix it ? Same with the NRA ! Give them time to fix it !
If they don't ? THEN......You can Bitch !
The 28 candidates endorsed by Jeff Knox are not the cronies. They appear on the pages in front of and behind the ballot and candidate bios.The problem is we dont know who the cronies are.
