Former President Donald Trump is endorsing Rep. Paul Gosar, one day after the Arizona Republican was censured by the House of Representatives for posting a violent cartoon video that depicted a character with his face killing one with New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s.
Trump, in a statement, hailed Gosar as “a loyal supporter of our America First agenda” and “highly respected in Arizona,” and said he “has my Complete and Total Endorsement!” The statement made no mention of the House’s rare rebuke — just the fourth in nearly 40 years — which also stripped Gosar of his two committee assignments, on the Natural Resources and the Oversight and Reform panels.
Gosar has said the video, which was produced by his taxpayer-funded office, had been mischaracterized and was not intended to be a threat. In addition to Ocasio-Cortez, the the video also depicted Gosar’s character attacking President Joe Biden with swords.
Gosar is no stranger to controversy. He’s made appearances at fringe right-wing events, including a gathering in Florida last February hosted by a man who has promoted white supremacist beliefs, and earlier this year looked to form an America First Caucus with other hard-line Republican House members that aimed to promote “Anglo-Saxon political traditions.”

“They won’t. Daddy Soros pays for one message.”
Yet when I read left wing information sources- The Koch brothers and ALEC are doing what Soros is doing.
The American establishment gives both the left & right “a bogeyman.”
Its up to us to see reality.
The Anglo American system of government doesn’t care about labels on political parties:
“It wants the same results regardless of political rhetoric.”
Time to readjust your historical perspective. We now have a Chicom American system of government. Our American Heritage has been resigned to the history books by violent Marxists and an AWOL “opposition” party.
“Bush League Republicans ARE actually Democrats.
Stop being fooled by their R jersey camouflage.”
Manchin and Sinema are catching heat for being DINO’s by the radical progressives.
Are these two Assistant Republicans?
Nope, just playing the same game for the American establishment, that Romney, Collins, & Murkowski do when the Republicans hold power.
What looks like the likely congressional map could pair him with rat Rep. O’Halleran though in a decidedly GOP district. The other choice (if this ends up being the map) would be to run in a heavily GOP seat that Debbie Lesko may also run for.

The proposed 2nd district would contain both the Prescott and Flagstaff areas. Gosar has residences in both cities so it is likely he’ll run and win easily in the 2nd. O’Halleran would get trounced in the Prescott area, doubt he would even bother to campaign here.
Republicans in the Quad Cities (Prescott Valley, Prescott, Chino Valley, and Dewey) outnumber all other parties and independents combined and are known for a high turnout rate.
Another poster suggested to me that the only way to get back to the states having their proper representation under the original idea for the Constitution is an Article V convention to repeal the 17th.
I think they may be right.
You aren’t living in a more unique time frame than any other time frame.
My historical perspective will stand as long as George Washington remains our 1st President and on the $1 Federal Reserve Note.
When those 2 things change you are officially in a different system.(not really though)
As far as China owning us, its laughable. They might have an influence in San Francisco and Seattle real estate. In my town, China(Taiwan) owns 2 restaurants and a small number of residential and commercial properties. Hardly a majority, infact a small minority, Hispanics own way more than China(Taiwan) in my “neck of the woods.”
“Another poster suggested to me that the only way to get back to the states having their proper representation under the original idea for the Constitution is an Article V convention to repeal the 17th.

In my state it wouldn’t matter.(Oregon)
The Democrats in the Oregon legislature would have 2 Senators just like now.
I don’t support a repeal of the 17th Amendment because the Bush League Republicans would put up horrible candidates. With their control of the Republican “farm system.”
You would never get a Rand Paul in the Senate again. Repealing the 17 amendment is a distraction IMO, we a!ready have the tools to oust assistant democrats.
Ask yourself this, if Trump wanted to be a Senator.
Would my Republican State Legislature vote for him?
You know the answer.
Gosar “only” got 69 percent last time. He’s my congressman. The Dems cheated throughout the state and stole the presidential and senate races, installing a gun grabber in a state full of gun owners.
This district and Biggs over in Havasu are pretty much cheat proof. GOP has massive majorities. If they reroute it, it’s hard to believe Gosar would lose that much unless they were to stick him with Flagstaff, and the Republicans usually let the Democrats call the shot in redistricting. Its unlikely they would want to mess with Gosar. But the Dems still usually get their way through howling about “civil rights.”
So conservative Yuma County with two military bases generally got stuck with Democrats and no representation. They did it with Mo Udall back in the eighties. Gosar now represents the north part of the county. But the sourthern part has Grijalva, who should represent Mexico.
Who ya gonna call?

You can't rely on Google anymore, for anything.
THAT? THAT WAS IT?
Wow! Such sensitive bi#@hes!
We love him here in Arizona.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Seems like a good guy. How does it happen that he has such a messed up family of leftists? Amazing how that happens...
Bwah hah hah hah hah!
You aren’t living in a more unique time frame than any other time frame.
The fully bipartisan nature of the Deep State coup and stolen election is certainly a unique event in American history. I’m sorry to see you can’t see that after 5+ years of collusion between the GOP and Dems to defeat the MAGA agenda and disenfranchise us all. If you can’t see it by now you never will.
Both are good candidates. Lesko surprisingly so, my 5th fave congresscritter behind Jordan, MTG, Boebert, and Biggs. Chris Stewart in UT is #6 on the all star list. Then Gosar.
How do you feel about Louie G?
Ghomert? He’s ok. Not my congressman so I don’t follow him much.
Anyone that is actually a decent, across-the-board conservative not beholden to the establishment is on their list to deep six. For example, freshman Mary Miller of Illinois is the lone Republican we have from this state that doesn’t take crap from the media (while ”conservative” congressmen Most and LaHood are establishment types who don’t want to offend the cocktail circuit) Guess which Republican is on their chopping block that they cite as a loose cannon wacko who should resign? Yup, Miller.
