The NRA Leads Hillary In Favorability By DOUBLE DIGITS

It’s pretty obvious that the National Rifle Association would be more popular than Hillary Clinton in conservative circles – but what about the rest of America.
Well, a new Gallup poll shows that by double digits, the NRA is more popular than Hillary with all Americans.
The poll shows the gun-rights organization’s favorability rating is at 58 percent, while Hillary Clinton’s rating is at 42 percent.
This means the NRA that she said she was proud to list as an “enemy” is more popular than she is – which makes vilifying them just about the stupidest thing a candidate can do. From Breitbart:
According to Gallup, the NRA’s overall favorable rating of 58 percent is five percent higher than it was in 1989, which is when Gallup began inquiring about Americans’ view of the NRA. Moreover, the percentage of Americans who view the NRA as “very favorable” is at an all-time high of 26 percent.
In contrast to this rising tide for the NRA stands Hillary, whose favorable rating is about 42 percent, according to the Huffington Post. And whereas the NRA’s current favorable rating of 58 percent is roughly equal with the favorable ratings they enjoyed in 2009, Hillary’s rating of 42 percent has fallen from the rating of 57.1 percent she enjoyed in 2009.
While a centerpiece of Clinton’s campaign is maligning the NRA, a clear majority of Americans have a favorable view of the NRA and the fight it undertakes to defend the Second Amendment from politicians just like Clinton.
