The NRA doesn't contribute to politicians because they've "bought into their agenda".

They buy the politicians who are willing to take the money in exchange for "buying into" the NRA's agenda.

You were targeted for a reason, just like all the other politicians who the NRA targets to "contribute" to: i.e. you're spineless and easily played.
