'Did he get brainwashed?': Rep. Paul Gosar's former dental patients are baffled by his politics
theweek ^ | 7/21/2021 | BRIGID KENNEDY

Before he was a congressman associating with white nationalists, Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) was a dentist — and a good one, at that. Now, some of his former patients are shocked that the man who once filled their cavities has become a "conspiracy-minded, race-baiting" lawmaker, reports The Washington Post.

"Gosar the dentist had to be the real Paul Gosar," said Coreen Anderson, a former loyal Gosar patient who has described his dental skills as "amazing." "It had to be. There's no way that person was fake. Did he get brainwashed? Did the power get to this head? I honestly don't know what could have happened." Now, Anderson says it "sickens" her that she ever referred people to see him.

"I wish he had just stayed a dentist," added Andy Kruse, another former patient who didn't always see "eye to eye" with the congressman, but at the time, was willing to disregard his politics for top-notch dental care, per the Post. "He was a much better dentist than he is a politician."

The American Dental Association recently moved to suspend contributions to the incendiary lawmaker in light of increasing pressure from both within the "Tooth Party" and outside it, reported Vice News on Monday. The ADA was Gosar's top donor.

"It's really awful," said Joseph Harte, for whom the Arizona Dental Association's 2001 Dentist of the Year once did an extraction. "To think of him putting his hands in my mouth just gives me the creeps." Read more at The Washington Post.

I think they are trying to “cancel” his dental career. Maybe get his license pulled. These people are awful.

So she clears the politics of everyone she allows to put something into her mouth?

What if he’s not a “conspiracy-minded, race-baiting lawmaker?”

Well, that sure is a pack of lies. Merely for being pro-Trump, they put those false epithets on him.

WaPo completely tries to smear him with allusions and suppositions, using their warped view on anything not official “BLM.”

It's a disgusting WaPo hit piece on an honorable man.

“I think they are trying to “cancel” his dental career.”

He’s already 62 yrs old and has been in Congress since 2010. I seriously doubt he has either plans or any financial need to go back into his profession although if he did I doubt a few Liberals morons such as these would cost him any loss of business.

Anyone who chooses to visit a medical professional based on their politics rather than their competency is a moron of the highest order.

I went to a good dentist in Australia. He was supposed to be the best in the middle-sized town.

He did a decent emergency job with 30 year old equipment, but his dental assistant acted like a thief.

At least, my gold crown, which had to be extracted, disappeared...

He was an avid leftist...

‘This is life imitating the Babylon Bee”.
I agree. My first thought was to check and make sure that this was not written by the Bee. But then maybe the Bee did write it and have caught us again.
