Important words by former Rep. Denver Riggleman (R-VA05) on MSNBC yesterday:
- “They say I’m a traitor, gone against the country…the first conspiracy theories were that I was being funded by George Soros to change the sexual orientation of children after I officiated that gay marriage. These conspiracy theories wrap hate, bigotry, ridiculousness, and insanity all in one…”
- “We’re radicals in the Republican Party if we say ‘stop the steal’ was ridiculous. Trump is the new establishment and…I don’t know if I have the words effectively for everyone to say, this is nuts.”
- “And when you look at what’s happening here in Virginia, and you have every gubernatorial candidate on the Republican side running on this [‘stop the steal’, etc.], every single one of them…the GOP is here to stay with this element, it’s not going anywhere.”
- “If we don’t have people who are willing to run with integrity ask willing to tell the truth, we’re going to have a tough time.”
