Marco Rubio’s primary opponent, Luis Miguel, has organized a rally Sat at the FL Capitol to call for the release of all insurrectionists. The promo says Jan 6 was a “false flag organized by the FBI,” and people “did nothing more than enter the Capitol at the Police’s insistence.”

They are not traditional Republican voters. Anyone who does not toe their line is an enemy.

They will sit out the general. In a normal situation Val would have little chance. But she can win this. It still not likely, but possible.

And if they nominate this loon Val wins.

This will play out in lots of areas. Lots of republicans are nuts like this guy. But there are enough that would never vote for them.
