GOP U.S. Senate candidate releases violent ‘RINO hunting’ ad aimed at other Republicans

[onthedarkside]

 

 

Senate candidate and former Missouri governor Eric Greitens is running an ad that stops just short of calling for violence against fellow Republicans who aren’t part of the “MAGA crew.”

 

In that ad released Monday, the 48-year-old veteran introduces himself while cocking a rifle.

 

“I’m Eric Greitens, Navy SEAL,” he says. “And today, we’re going RINO hunting.”

 

“RINO” is a term used by far right-wing Republicans to describe moderate members of the GOP they accuse of being “Republican In Name Only.”

...

The Kansas City Star called its state’s candidate’s ad “ludicrous” and “a new low.”

What those personality cult Trumpists call rinos are actually the only few real republicans left. Real republicans (though I disagree with them on most things) have values. The only values that Trumpist republicans have is following their dear leader with no regard for objective reality. Such as: HE LOST.

Republicans hunting each other, what’s not to like about that?

It's only the Trumpists threatening the traditional republicans. Bully followers of a bully leader. It's truly disgusting.

 The irony is that the "MAGA crew" are likely to jump ship to DeSantis soon.

Well it's already clear that Trumpism will persist long after Trump is gone.

Make America Gruesome Again?

Kinzinger Says He Received a Threat to 'Execute' Him, His Wife, and 5-Month-Old (businessinsider.com)

Quote

 

Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger warned of "violence in the future" after he said he received a mailed threat against him and his family. 

Kinzinger made the comments Sunday on "This Week" on ABC News while discussing his work on the committee investigating January 6, 2021. His position as one of only two Republicans on the committee has subjected him to threats, he said.

When asked by Keilar whether Greitens would pay a political price for such an inflammatory ad, Walsh replied that just the opposite would occur.

"This will help him, Brianna, like that Republican candidate up in Michigan who was arrested for participating in January 6th," he said. "Look, America needs to wrap her arms around the fact that the base, the voting base, of one of our two major political parties... is fully radicalized."

Nothing wrong with that.

The question is whether the Trumpians will just happily jump ship and forget about Trump or will they feel disappointment and betrayal? If DeSantis challenges Trump for the nomination there will be a lot of dirty laundry aired. I suspect that DeSantis will wait to see if Trump implodes before making a move either way.

 

Well, here comes Gov. Ron DeSantis’ close-up. In the last two years, the Florida Republican has seen his profile rise meteorically with the GOP due to his moves on the Covid-19 pandemic and battles over critical race theory, LGBTQ issues, immigration and other conservative flashpoints.

Good, and I'm sure De Santis would be able to accomplish more.

It's really hard to imagine how this division ends but I will definitely predict blood.
