Far-Right Republican Who Called For 'More Gallows' Wonders If GOP Had A Messaging Problem

https://news.yahoo.com/far-republican-called-more-gallows-175922899.html

As updated vote tallies began to cement a loss for Trump-backed Arizona governor candidate Kari Lake on Monday, a far-right state lawmaker who told a gathering of white nationalists that “we need to build more gallows” started to have second thoughts about her party’s pitch to voters.

“We wonder now if we were in an echo chamber,” said state Sen. Wendy Rogers (R), who has also suggested throwing county officials in solitary confinement and spent years lying about the 2020 election.

“I don’t know, I’m just beginning to get some perspective,” added Rogers.

She ran around the state spewing trump, maga, right wing garbage about gallows, red waves and stolen election lies.

Her and people like her did get enough of their ilk to eek out control of the House, which is going to lead to nothing but Biden impeachments and obstruction.

Why are some so susceptible to brainwashing?

“Get some Perspective”

If Republicans had won they’d be jailing us all to make us understand “perspective”.

She didn’t get “perspective” she got an ass-whooping’ because their side is the only one who doesn’t know the difference between perspective and punishment—people have had enough of American dictators. All of them.

It’s a values, ethics, and human decency problem. If you’re selling shit, no amount of messaging is going to make it smell like roses.

If you want to see who set off the stuff that got echoed, look in the mirror, Wendy.

Fucking garbage people, the lot of them.

The problem isn't that you're not properly spinning your bullshit. It's the bullshit.
