There has never been a shortage of Democrats willing to hurl mud at GOP politicians who staunchly support the constitutionally protected American right to bear arms.
In January, 2016, Senator Chris Murphy said, "The NRA built their political power over 20 to 30 years. And Republicans right now are in the pocket of the NRA." More recently, on his late night "Comedy" show, Jimmy Kimmel said the NRA "Has Republicans' balls in a money clip".
According to opensecrets.org, which tracks campaign contributions, the National Rifle Association has directly donated $18,978,465 to Republican campaigns since 1990, and given $20,199,499 to pro-gun PACs during that same period.
The National Education Association has donated $117,506,923 to Democrats since the 1990 cycle.
Do pro-union donations like this make Democrats question the integrity of their politicians? Do they assume their leaders are establishing a quid pro quo with special interest groups? Of course not; in their minds only Republicans are capable of such malfeasance.
Out of the top ten direct organization contributors since 1990, only two have donated more money to Republican efforts than Democratic ones, and that includes the National Association of Realtors, which slightly favored Republicans, but still made 48% of their contributions to Democrats.
The NRA isn't bribing politicians into doing its bidding; it's just committed to the issues its five million members care about, namely, defending the 2nd Amendment from Democrats, who in their undying quest for authoritarianism, want to take guns out of the hands of law-abiding Americans.
