Kari Lake Racks Up Another Extremist Endorsement -- The Rest of the Field...Silent

We Told You So: The AZGOP is the Party of Conspiracy Theorists and Far-Right Extremism

PHOENIX – The current frontrunner to the Republican nomination for Governor of Arizona, Kari Lake has racked up yet another extremist endorsement, this time from none other than the alleged leader of the QAnon conspiracy theorist movement, Ron Watkins. Lake and the AZGOP are shamelessly embracing the most extreme far-right figures and ideologies, and not one single Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate is even slightly concerned.

While some Arizona Republicans are willing to stand against the QAnon masses, Lake and her conspiratorial GOP challengers are too busy cozying up to dangerous extremists to even think about the people of Arizona. Unfortunately for Arizonans, conspiracy theorists controlling the AZGOP was a long time coming and can be traced to groups like the so-called “Patriot Movement,” where cowardly Arizona Republicans like Doug Ducey were slow to denounce their hateful priorities for fear of political retribution.

“Arizonans need real leaders, not out of touch extremists governing our state,” said Alex Alvarez, spokesman for the Arizona Democratic Party. “Instead of working on the issues that matter to Arizonans, like keeping small businesses afloat and ensuring that schools are safe, the GOP is desperate to win the affection of dangerous radicals pursuing an agenda harmful to Arizona.”
