Arizona GOP asks followers: "Are you willing to die to overturn election results?"

The cheek of these NAZIs.



Arizona GOP asks followers if they're willing to die in effort to overturn election results

Maria Polletta and Andrew Oxford
Arizona Republic, Dec. 8, 2020

The Arizona Republican Party has asked its followers if they are willing to die for the cause of overturning the presidential election results, eliciting alarm and criticism in response.

The party's official Twitter account on Monday night shared a post from Ali Alexander, an activist with an organization called "Stop the Steal" that has protested election results.

"I am willing to give my life for this fight," Alexander wrote. When sharing the post, the GOP asked followers: "He is. Are you?"

The GOP then posted a clip from the movie "Rambo", highlighting the quote: “This is what we do, who we are. Live for nothing, or die for something.”

Many people saw the social media post as the latest escalation in violent rhetoric this campaign season as election officials face threats from the president’s supporters following his defeat in the state and as he continues to push unsuccessfully to overturn the results of the race.

I wouldn’t bring it up, but Dump and GOP are encouraging violence.

Al Gore put the nation ahead of himself.

Can’t seem to remember an example since when the GOP did.

Trumpsters don’t seem very keen on learning by another’s example, though they are instinctively inbred to be followers.

The traitor hasn’t been held responsible for anything in his miserable life, including lying under oath to the draft board.

Bloomberg campaign brain Tim O’Brien explained:

“I’ve been asked a lot… what’s it like to be in Donald Trump’s head so much? What I’ve said to people is when you get inside Donald Trump’s head, all you’re going to discover that you find there is a putter, a cheeseburger, a porn video, and somebody else’s credit card.”

We voted for the guy who will end the pandemic -- not ignore and lie about it.

Suck it up fuckos, you lost. You'll just have to put up with competent leadership for the next 4 years you idiots.

This idiot somehow thinks there's 80 million voters for Biden, and NONE will fight back.
Big mistake.

The problem with the GOP isn't one man. It's an entire party dedicated to one-party authoritarian rule by any means.

The Cult of the Status Quo needs to wake up. We are not going back to normal "bipartisan" relations.
