NORTH CHARLESTON — Chaos erupted at the Charleston County GOP meeting when attorney Lin Wood pushed conspiracy theories that Donald Trump won the 2020 election.

It was part of Wood’s pitch to replace S.C. Republican Party Chairman Drew McKissick next month.

Guests packed a ballroom at the Double Tree Hotel on April 12 to listen to Wood, an attorney whose party platform for South Carolina Republicans revolves around emphatically supporting Trump and calling out politicians who don’t back him enough. “I did not come to divide you,” Wood said. “I came to unite you and and grow your party.”

Every time Wood talked about how Trump was actually president, many in the room erupted in applause. Other stayed silent. Maurice Washington, chairman of the Charleston County GOP, interjected multiple times reminding the crowd to be respectful of opposing viewpoints when members began to shout at each other about the November election results.

2. I'm sorry but these people are stupid

The facts of life stare them in the face and these idiots don't see them.

I really don't care about such stupid people who wallow in their self-imposed ignorance.
