Figured Trump would be wrong on that one too. The weaker and more out of favor that incarnation of the NRA gets, the healthier the USA will be.

By "that incarnation" i mean compared to what it was back when...

The NRA supported gun control laws until 1977. What good safety reason do you think changed
their mind? Not one. Some reading for you. The first one is key if you haven't seen one like it yet.
P - Important history. NRA 1977 shift from century of focus on gun safety to aggressive right-
wing approach, utilizing fraudulent claims re 2nd Amdt, on profit making for gun industry.
.. excerpt outed here ..
In a PBS News Hour interview in 1991, former Supreme Court Chief Justice Warren Burger referred to the NRA Second Amendment myth as "one of the greatest pieces of fraud, I repeat the word fraud, on the American people by any special interest group that I have ever seen in my lifetime."
P - The opinions of these distinguished legal scholars had no bearing on NRA propaganda that continued unabated. During the weeks before the 2000 general election, a self-anointed constitution "scholar," Charleton Heston, ceremonial president of the NRA, flooded the airways to urge voters to support candidates who would protect and preserve Second Amendment rights. Little did most Americans realize that such rights did not exist. The NRA's reading of the Second Amendment was purely fictional and unsupported by the law of the land.
