Analysis: Texas Sen. John Cornyn said Wednesday that the NRA won't back the gun bill he co-wrote because of its 'business model.' This is not how the GOP usually talks about them.

And, in fact, Cornyn offered some pretty unvarnished comments Wednesday about the National Rifle Association — comments that amount to a significant and unusual rebuke of the nation’s leading gun group from a leading GOP senator.

While speaking to reporters about the bill, Cornyn emphasized that the NRA was consulted extensively. But he indicated that the group would never be onboard with pretty much anything because of its “business model.” “We worked with the NRA, listened to their concerns, but in the end I think they simply — they have a membership and a business model that will not allow them to supportHe added: “And so I understand where they’re coming from, but I think most people will not allow any outside group to veto good public policy.
