Still Waiting

Wondering when we're going to get some followup analysis on this one, now that the numbers are in.

NBC News - Guns In America (11-1-18):

NRA slashes campaign spending, lowers profile in midterms. Why?
The gun group has put $11 million into midterm races this year — less than half what it spent four years ago.

The National Rifle Association — long seen as a kingmaker in Republican politics — is taking a lower profile in this year's high-stakes midterm campaign, a sign of the shifting dynamics of the gun debate as the GOP fights to maintain its grip on Congress.

The NRA has put $11 million into midterm races this year — less than half what it spent four years ago in an election that gave Republicans full control of Congress. This year's totals are also far below the $54 million the group spent in 2016 on both the presidential and congressional races.

 - and - 

It's the first time under current campaign finance laws that the NRA might be outspent by gun control groups, though the organization often ramps up spending late in the campaign. That money won't show up in federal financial reports until after Election Day.
BTW - here's a picture from the time Repubs in the House voted to fuck over 20,000,000 Americans by passing ACA Repeal:

A) Guess what the ❌ means

B) Guess which Gun Makers' Trade Group didn't donate as much as usual to most of those people in the picture

Getting the excessive amounts of dark money out of politics will do wonders for the process.
