Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) spokesman Anthony Foti claims that bad-faith actors and “low IQ people” were “unable to comprehend” Gosar’s Wednesday tweet — supporting former President Donald Trump’s unhinged call to terminate the Constitution — prompting the Arizona lawmaker to delete his post.
I would like to believe he was talking about his own supporters, but it’s not a stretch to figure out that he’s talking about the rest of us who actually have some pretty decent reading comprehension and know exactly what he was saying, despite his opinions to the contrary.
In his “defense” that’s usually the result of every post-election analysis performed by the GOP - their policies, positions and candidates are never the reasons why they lose elections - it’s because the electorate is too stupid to understand the GOP’s innate superiority.
I’d like to get on the insult train, but I was never in the top tier of insulters. What this tells me is that
(1) Gosar fucked up
(2) Gosar is crafting an excuse for what he said
(3) Gosar is still wary of and tethered to Trump
(4) Gosar is not intelligent
(5) Gosar’s excuse only “moved” people he had no need to assure
(6) The legalities of Trump’s declaration place Trump in a precarious situation. **
**(and if Gosar wants to come along with Trump, so be it)
Foti’s statement comes after Gosar took to Twitter to announce his support for Trump’s Truth Social rant calling for the termination of the Constitution and to “rescind” the 2020 election. “I support and agree with the former President,” Gosar wrote in the Twitter post in question which he deleted shortly after. “Unprecedented fraud requires unprecedented cure.”
Life observation #4,212,001:
People who use the term “Low IQ people” to denigrate others are overwhelming low IQ themselves.

When someone says “No one has XXX (fought, done, loves) for/against YYY (constitutional values, racism, misogyny, whites, blacks) more than ZZZ (person)”… the statement a damned lie.
