President Donald Trump on Thursday called a lawsuit that seeks to dissolve the National Rifle Association filed earlier in the day “a very terrible thing.”
Trump should know what a “very terrible thing“ it is to be caught self dealing…
He and his criminal family had to dissolve their charity because they kept on stealing/self dealing for decades!
This sounds like a job for Article 2!!
I kind of laughed when a reporter asked if there was precedent for actions like this by the state. Short answer: Trump’s charity.
That took a lot of thought…
“…the state’s legal efforts against the NRA have ‘absolutely decimated’ the gun advocacy group…”
Personal peeve: Although it is so commonly misused the term has almost lost its meaning, but decimate doesn’t mean destroy or anything of the sort. It means to reduce by 1/10th.
"“I think the NRA should move to Texas and lead a very good and beautiful life,” Trump told reporters before departing for Ohio. “I’ve told them that for a long time. “
Hopefully just in time as Texas to turns blue. Also, didn’t Wayne Lapierre buy some big compound mansion in Dallas or somewhere in Texas last year?
I imagine Donnie’d know just how terrible this thing can be: they dismantled his charity in a similar way for similar reasons.

He’ll put as much thought into his debate performance with Biden. Thought is irrelevant to all that he does.
Tried too, that’s part of what got him into this mess.
“I think the NRA should move to Texas and lead a very good and beautiful life,” Trump told reporters before departing for Ohio. “I’ve told them that for a long time. “
Only if we can then move the wall and sell the state back to Mexico after relocating the intelligent people from it…
“I’ve told them that for a long time. “
Odd syntax there.
OT but speaking of terrible things…
I found this caricature depicting Lindsey Grahams college job. After watching him grill Sally Yates yesterday it’s quite telling.
Homage to B. Kliban for the artistic depiction.
…the state’s legal efforts against the NRA have “absolutely decimated” the gun advocacy group with its costs.
Says the guy who’s “absolutely decimated” anyone he wanted to via frivolous suits. Guess he recognizes his own tactic, at least.
Feeling those hands of yours getting colder, Wayne?

Trump responded to a reporter question regarding a lawsuit filed in state court by New York Attorney General Tish James against the NRA, saying that the state’s legal efforts against the NRA have “absolutely decimated” the gun advocacy group with its costs.
Ironically enough, a large portion of the complaint is dedicated to the story of how LaPierre covered up Bill Brewer’s obscene legal fees. $24 million over the course of just one year.
Fraud, Money Laundering, self-dealing, of course Donald thinks its terrible that they got caught, these are few of his favorite things.
But would it be the biggest, most powerful life?
Asking for a friend.
“I think the NRA should move to Texas and lead a very good and beautiful life,” Trump told reporters before departing for Ohio.
Trump personifies the NRA, and shows more concern over its “life” than he did for any actual American human being in the Axios interview: “It is what it is.”
I think one of the things that has “decimated” the NRA is the fact that their advocacy doesn’t reflect the concerns of their members. I know some people who had to join the NRA in order to be a member at a gun club so that they could compete in skeet shooting and similar things. They don’t appreciate being lumped in with the idiots–they just joined so they could compete, and dropped it once they were members of the club.
