Gun Sales are Spiking During the Pandemic and Frank Smyth Knows Why

from Make It Plain MIP with Rev. Mark Thompson · host Make It Plain MIP with Rev. Mark Thompson

The Trump administration continues to expand access to firearms during the Coronavirus pandemic, and so gun sales continue to rise, which is no coincidence--we’ve seen similar statistical jumps when Barack Obama was elected to office, as well as just after 9/11. That makes it a particularly interesting time to sit down with Frank Smyth, author of “The NRA: The Unauthorized History," who shares insight on how the ideology of the NRA's fiercely supportive members are a huge part of what upholds the organization, even in the midst of a national crisis.
