She looks at how the NRA has managed to get so much power that they strangled even the minor attempts at some form of gun control. Unfortunately, you have to see once again the repulsive Ted Cruz, who had seemed to mercifully have disappeared from view after getting humiliated by Donald Trump.

There is only one lobbyist group that Congress fears more than the NRA: the AARP.
If sane people can figure out how to enlist the latter, the former will fold.
That cage match would be good for America.
