Mark Finchem goes all in on his plan to use bigotry as a political platform

Former President Trump visits Mesa Sunday, hosts rally for Arizona GOP candidates

Former President Donald Trump is stopping in the Valley on Sunday evening as part of his “Save America” rally, alongside several Arizona Republican candidates.

Festivities started at 5 a.m. at Mesa’s Bell Bank Park in anticipation of the former president’s arrival. Arizona’s Family reporter Jessica Parsons was at the park Sunday morning to speak with some of those in attendance at the 320-acre facility. The rally comes just three days before Arizona begins its early voting process for the Nov. 8 general election.

Guest speakers and Trump-endorsed candidates such as Blake Masters, Kari Lake, and Mark Finchem took the stage prior to the former president’s speech. Secretary of State candidate Mark Finchem told the crowd, “We’re engaged in an epic fight, a fight that was prophesied, we fight the far left radical fringe, we fight against a godless agenda that seeks to destroy out [sic] Judeo-Christian ethic favoring the satanic destruction of our families our communities our children our churches and ultimately our united Judeo-Christian culture.”

Finchem may have used the term "Judeo-Christian", but the way he used it, he meant "white".

The Right’s “Judeo-Christian” Fixation

How a term that sounds inclusive is used to promote exclusion.

During one of his recent confrontations with congressional Democrats, Donald Trump made a stunning comment about the United States’ Jewish population. How could Jewish voters overwhelmingly support the Democratic party, he groused, when it included prominent critics of Israel like Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar? When American Jews voted for those politicians—or other members of the same party—who “hate Israel and hate Jewish people,” they must be ignorant or, still worse, “disloyal.”

I am not usually one to tell candidates what to do (they tend to know what they're doing and don't really need advice from Monday morning quarterbacks like me), but I will say one thing -

The Fontes campaign might be well-served to insert video clips of Finchem preaching to his choir into an ad, at least into an internet one.
