The entirety of GOA’s electoral strategy is this tweet. No one has stepped up to backfill the campaign funds lost in the NRA’s implosion and orgs to the NRA’s right spend much of their time telling their followers elections don’t matter. https://t.co/wGq9ZkXc59

Will Trump whine to the audience that gun owners don't vote?
(yes, yes he will, because he says that every time he talks to 2A audiences these days because they aren't putting up any serious money for him so he's just checking the box) https://t.co/Omztxj9Nqc

I, for one, am just as happy that the professional gun humpers have decided Trump is a sunk cost — it wouldn’t hurt my feelings if they retreated from politics entirely (fat chance). In my wildest dreams, maybe they’ve actually been spooked, not only by the implosion of the NRA, but by the increasing willingness of survivors and municipalities to hold gun sellers and ‘innocent’ parents / families / law enforcement agencies liable for mass shooting events…
Here is the problem, @guntruth: there aren't any!
Folks can roll the dice giving money to the @NRA but they're spending a small fraction of what they used to.@NSSF just does donor service stunt buys (Times Square lol)@GunOwners @gunpolicy et al reject electoral politics. pic.twitter.com/MvhX9F8QRN

No one has moved into the electoral work vacuum created by the @NRA's collapse and no one is showing any interest in fixing it.
