Audio: 2025 VA GOP Gubernatorial Candidate Amanda Chase Says She Wasn’t Going to Run Until Winsome Earle-Sears’ Campaign Started “Unraveling”; Riffs on the “Battle of the Blondes,” “Trump 2.0,” “Population Control”; Brags About Being There on 1/6/21; etc.

How far off the deep end has the Trumpified, MAGA Republican Party gone? Check out this interview, and see below for audio clips, for some crazy, crazy stuff from 2025 VA GOP gubernatorial candidate and former State Senator Amanda Chase.

• First, Chase explains why she’s running for governor, saying she “was not originally planning to run, we were all going to get behind Winsome Sears…she was our presumed nominee; then we get the call last week that Winsome Sears has gone through her second or third team of consultants and her campaign teams and her campaign is unraveling and a lot of the unit chairs were getting frustrated because they were trying to reach out to her…and the calls were going  unanswered and people were really asking what is going on here. So I stepped in…”

• Chase then claimed: “Chris LaCivita, who is senior advisor to President Trump, chose me back in 2019 to run against Abigail Spanberger...so I know that I can beat Abigail Spanberger, even the professionals have paired me up with her to to win…between the two of us [Winsome Earle-Sears and Amanda Chase], I think I’m probably the better candidate to face off against Abigail Spanberger, let’s just call it battle of the blondes, right, let’s have some fun…Spanberger is beatable.”

• Chase then talks about how Earle-Sears has “spoken against President Trump numerous times…she has not been on board with President Trump,” and actually BRAGS that “someone like myself…was there on January 6th, didn’t enter the building, I’ve never had the FBI visit my house or anything, I left in time, but I was there to express my concern over the 2020 presidential election…everybody knows I’ve been with President Trump from the beginning, I was censured illegally by the Virginia Senate, which was controlled by Democrats, and that was for going to the January 6 rally just to express my constitutionally protected First Amendment right to express my opinion – I believe the election was stolen and I said that numerous occasions.” Yikes.

• Chase then had some, er, “interesting” (aka wildly false) comments on what she calls “Trump 2.0,” which she argues “is very different than the first Trump Administration – he learned what to do better this go around, and look at the team he’s put together, I mean they’re going gangbusters exposing the fraud, the waste, the abuse, the downright theft going on in within our government, SSI benefits going to people who are 200 years old…”

• Finally, Chase goes fully into 100% false, conspiracy theory la-la land, riffing as follows: “This is about the globalists, this is about population control, this is about wanting to kill Americans at any cost and basically destroying the basic fabric of the family. Fentanyl is just one of the many ways that they’re doing that, they’re doing that through the indoctrination of our schools, you don’t see this in other…you know like China and some of these other places; this was designed to kill and destroy Americans and especially American children. Look at the policies of the Democrats it’s kill, steal and destroy…Fentanyl is just a sign of the bigger problem that I see, you know, if a child is actually born, because remember they have abortion…that’s health care for them is abortion, it’s going to kill…they’re going to use abortion as health care…everything is about kill still destroy because they want to depopulate the Earth, they want the elitists to be the ones left on the earth to have what they consider completely limited resources and...they want to wipe off the face of the Earth anyone who is conservative, anyone that doesn’t adhere to their cult, their religion. And so this has been intentional, allowing fentanyl, allowing the drug smugglers, allowing the gang members, our enemies foreign and domestic, to basically kill whole generations through abortion, through fentanyl…”

In sum: What can you even say about such unhinged stuff, and the fact that Chase could actually win the 2025 VA GOP gubernatorial nomination?  Also note that Chase was a top political ally of Youngkin’s in 2021 and beyond, so this isn’t just some “fringe” of the party – it’s the *heart* of the MAGA GOP. And yes, that means we need to defeat these people in EVERY SINGLE ELECTION, without exception.
