"If Stephen Richer walked in this room, I would lynch him." This is Shelby Busch. She is second-in-command for the Maricopa County Republican Committee (@MaricopaGOP). She was the county party's 2023 "volunteer of the year." She's an advisor to Kari Lake and others. She also runs an "election integrity" group called "We The People AZ" that receives funding from Mike Lindell, Patrick Byrne, and Mike Flynn. Interesting choice of words. Not, "I'd kick his butt," or "I'd kill him." But "lynch." Why does that word roll off her tongue given its historical context? She says this after talking about good Christian values. And while some in the room laugh, nobody shouts out in protest. Nobody says, "that's too far." This isn't healthy. And it's not responsible. And we shouldn't want it as part of the Republican Party.
