If the Republican Party is serious about addressing its current identity as a white nationalist party, they’re going to need to find a primary challenger to Paul Gosar and seriously push that person to replace him. Because he’s not chilling out anytime soon, as evidenced how last week Gosar shared a cartoon meme of a sex worker propositioning a man to do anything he wants for $50 and he asks that she declare “AMERICA FIRST IS INEVITIBLE.” (This is a member of Congress. Seriously.) Considering how quick the GOP were to act against Steve King (as in letting be a complete bigot for decades and then just taking his committee assignments away), we wouldn’t hold our breath. It’s much more likely than he’s arrested by the FBI for any assistance he may have given to domestic terrorists that qualifies as sedition than they develop the will to expel one of their own. But House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy is a coward, and has done nothing about the growing ranks of white nationalists’ in his caucus, which only has emboldened Gosar to keep attending such conferences, and with him getting away with it, others are following suit.
In a sane world Paul Gosar would have resigned in disgrace, or been primaried years ago. Alas, Republican voters insist that we’re not allowed to live in a sane world, and keep this idiot around to file attempts to impeach Joe Biden that are doomed to fail advancing out of the House, let alone getting anywhere in the Senate. But he'll continue being a blight on our national discourse, now after redistricting in the new version of Arizona's 9th Congressional District, which has a +16 Republican lean. We really hope his career ends up with him being arrested for his role in January 6th. The sooner, the better.
