Oh, look at what the GOP is into now. I wonder if this guy is related to Santos or Trump.

 

He was a yuuuuuuge Trump guy and an election denier. MAGA to the core.

 

It seems like every week we get a new instance of republican politicians committing major crimes from election fraud to now attempted murder.

Stay classy

 

This guy should be thrown under the jail. It’s New Mexico so he probably won’t be out in time for dinner tonight like if this was Illinois.
