You'd think by now people would realize these are the sorts of candidates the Republican primary voters are pumping out these days.
Remember Dan Cox, the Republican nominee for governor in Maryland, who denied the 2020 election? In that same state, Republicans nominated a neo-Confederate young Earth creationist 9/11 truther for attorney general as well. The dude was a member of Tom Woods' League of the South.
This is just what the Republican party is these days. I'd be embarrassed to still be a registered Republican. It has been taken over by the nutcases.
