It's official -she cares about absolutely nothing but winning.
She was pro-gun when she ran against Obama.
She was anti-gun when she started running against Bernie.
She even suggested Bernie's sexist while hitting him hard on the issue. She said she wouldn't stop roaring about gun control.

And now, Hillary and her campaign manager John Podesta is joining forces with people who lobby for NRA.

So, I would love to hear from Hillary supporters. Does she care about gun control? If so, why is she hanging out with NRA lobbyists?

2. Despicable. She should be running as a republican. That would make sense. /nt

3. It's too bad, really.

If she were to run as a republican, then she wouldn't have to lie at all.

4. It just keeps getting worse.

5. I am shocked I didn't predict this. I really, really should have done so.

This is exactly who Hillary Clinton is and it is what Hillary Clinton always does.

I genuinely think she enjoys toying with progressives. Much like Lieberman did.

The Clinton campaign sent out a memo ahead of her event noting that over his years in Congress, Sanders “has been a consistent vote for the NRA” and voted against the Brady Bill five times, an attack line Clinton launched in the last Democratic debate.
Clinton grew animated when talking about how the NRA is interested in “lowering the age from 14 to let more children legally have guns. What kind of debate is that? I have heard about what happens to children...finding that loaded gun. I’ve heard the stories, I’ve seen the news reports, about the ones who are killed.”

News of Clinton’s impending Sunday announcement hung over the event’s early speeches, especially a lengthy polemic against the former secretary of state by NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre that touched on everything from Whitewater to her private email account. At one point, he warned the crowd of a “permanent darkness of deceit and despair forced upon the American people to endure” if Clinton won.

“I vow on this day the NRA will stand shoulder to shoulder with you and good, honest decent Americans and we will stand and fight with everything we’ve got and in 2016, by God, we will elect the next great president of the United States of America and it will not be Hillary Rodham Clinton!” LaPierre told a roaring crowd.

Not exactly a ringing endorsement from the NRA.
