RonJohn Calls For 'Saving This Nation' After Plotting To Overturn 2020 Election

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), who is currently trailing in his reelection bid, said Thursday that his message to Wisconsin voters is that if they love America, they should vote for him.

“If you love this nation and are concerned about its future, join us,” Johnson said in an interview with conservative radio show host Hugh Hewitt, making his pitch to voters. “Join us in unifying and healing and saving this nation. That’s what we need to do.”

Except this is the same Republican senator who has admitted to playing a role in a plot to overturn American democracy on Jan. 6, 2021.

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol dropped the bombshell in June that Johnson and his aides were involved in an attempt to deliver a list of fake electors from Wisconsin and Michigan to then-Vice President Mike Pence. This was part of a scheme to pressure Pence into switching out the legitimate list of electors from states won by Biden with the fake list, making it look like Donald Trump had won.

This damn guy.

Does he think no one saw how he acted during the Trump years?

C’mon, Wisconsin…elect the leaders you deserve!

I get what you are saying, but I do fear that the size of the fascist movement in this country continues not only to be underestimated in size, but in scope and infiltration.
