The only question that comes to mind is, why on earth did it take this long?

It’s hard to imagine the National Rifle Association picking a more effective national spokesperson than the individual they just chose – author, TV commentator, nationally syndicated talk radio host … and legendary pro-gun advocate Dana Loesch.

From the NRA announcement:

Dana Loesch, the conservative leader, online pioneer and nationally syndicated radio host, will serve as a major national spokesperson for the National Rifle Association. NRA Executive Vice President and CEO Wayne LaPierre named Loesch as a Special Assistant to his office for Public Communication, with direct attributable authority on NRA matters.

“During the past year Dana has proven herself to be a powerful voice for the Second Amendment rights of all Americans,” LaPierre said. “It is clear that Dana has the communication skills, experience, and natural ability to serve our organization well as one its very public faces in the news media.”

As would be expected given Loesch’s history of effectively defending the Second Amendment, many conservatives on social media were thrilled at the announcement.

‘This president flat-out lied!’ Tucker joins ‘The Five’ and Bob Beckel goes off on him, see how it ends . .

Naming @DLoesch as the official spokesperson for NRA was a brilliant decision. Women protecting Constitutional rights makes me proud.

Finally, a taste of what’s to come for gun-grabbing libs:

And…

You can bet that @DLoesch will have a powerful message for #CPAC2017. She’ll expose the radical Left’s agenda on Thursday @CPAC. pic.twitter.com/ofkZEtZnnO
