Who Is The Most Extreme Republican Swing State Senate Candidate

It is amazing how extreme some of Republican Senatorial candidates are in the various swing states. If anything, you would expect Republicans to field candidates like Susan Collins who will act "concerned" about Republican excesses while still voting with Republicans almost all the time. Yet, instead, it seems that the defining trait for most Republicans is who can be the most pro-insurrectionist candidate out there.

So, of the current swing state Republicans, who do you think is the craziest?

Arizona - Blake Masters
Florida - Marc Rubio
Georgia - Hershel Walker
Nevada - Adam Laxalt
Pennsylvania - Mehmet Oz
Ohio - JD Vance
Wisconsin - Rob Johnson

Masters is the most extreme because he still thinks this is Jan Brewer's Arizona.

Or adjective group. A few come to mind

Craziest.
Most delusional
Most extreme
Most narcissistic
Biggest tfg supporter
Biggest tfg wanna be
Biggest exploiter of name recognition (That might be a tie between Walker and Oz.

I think they're all extremely crazy.

I'm in NC which is not considered a swing state, but we may win/flip our Senate race because Budd is the extreme GOPQ candidate.

Mastriano is the poster-boy of the extremism we must defeat. He's a True Believer, a self-righteous, white Christian Nationalist who does not back-step an inch. In fact, he's proud of who and what he is.

There are pretenders and opportunists. Like Oz and all those listed.

Then there's Doug Mastriano.
