Wearing a Glock is a new fashion accessory.

I think the FBI needs to keep an eye on this one.

They know exactly what to say to inspire you without actually giving you a command that will get them arrested later. Lake wants the MAGAts to gun down liberals at the polls.

When I watch her performances. She’s a fake all the way around, a bad actress and a worse go-getter.

14. We used to call assholes straps (strap on or jockstrap). One could picture a Glock with a asshole attached to it.

Republicans embrace. She's a little farther "out there", but not all that much.

I recall back in 2010 or 2012 when Sharron Angle was running for the US Senate in Nevada to defeat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. When asked about solving problems, she used guns as a metaphor and responded with "2nd Amendment remedies" about solving differences. She was soundly defeated.

Rueben Gallego will defeat Quari Lake soundly as well in Arizona.
