Rustad is a confirmed piece of shit for not firing here instantly
My standards for conservatives are so damn low that the fact that he said the whole bit about how her views don't reflect the views of the party made me feel somewhat relieved. I realize this is simply platitudes and is nothing more than damage control to retain votes.
I do agree though, she should be fired and barred from politics. What an abhorrent thing to say.
The standard for the cons these days is to say nothing or even double down.
