This can't be fucking real, the republican party is long gone. This is some crazy cult shit.

57. 83rd district of the NC legislature. A VERY Red part of the state. Pittman is a RW wet dream.

They think Trump is the Sign of the 2nd Coming or the Rapture and his un-election would be The Apocalypse. They talk that way down there too.

From WIki page on Pittman:

Controversial statements
On March 22, 2017, Pittman posted a newsletter on his Facebook page, giving his constituents an update on his activities. Numerous constituents posted comments, and Pittman responded with controversial statements.

On June 15, 2020, the NC lawmaker posted on his Facebook page calling Seattle BLM protesters 'thugs' and 'vermin' and suggested police 'shoot' those resisting arrest.[13]

U.S. Supreme Court "opinion"
In response to a commenter's criticism of HB 780, Pittman posted a comment on April 11, 2017, stating that North Carolina should uphold traditional marriage "in spite of the opinion of a federal court that had no business interfering."[14][15]

Lincoln-Hitler comparison
Pittman's post in reference to the U.S. Supreme Court led to several comments on states' rights and a post telling Pittman that the Civil War was over, the Union had won, and to "get over it". Pittman responded in a post on April 12, 2017, saying: "And if Hitler had won, should the world just get over it? Lincoln was the same sort if [sic] tyrant, and personally responsible for the deaths of over 800,000 Americans in a war that was unnecessary and unconstitutional."[13][14][16] He later deleted the post.[15]

Climate change statement
In July 2012, Pittman issued a controversial statement regarding climate change: "Our climate runs on a cycle. It goes up and it goes down and the Lord designed it that way. And the main thing that causes global warming is the Earth's relationship to a big ball of gas that's burning out there that we call the Sun. And it is the height of hubris for human beings to think that we can have any effect on that."[17]

Summary Execution for Protestors
In a June 2020 Facebook post in response to the national protests sparked by the death of George Floyd, Pittman called protesters "vermin" and "thugs" and opined that if they "resist and attack" police should shoot them. [18]
