Letter to the Editor Professional athlete Royce White is the candidate for Senate who won the nomination at the GOP convention. I would encourage readers to examine his past actions and views. A Google search quickly shed some light, making it clear why Trump, Bannon, and MAGA Republicans endorsed him for a Senate run this year.
The New York Post referred to White as “a far-right populist,” who has “embraced conspiracy theories ranging from the origins of the coronavirus to the integrity of the 2020 presidential election and satanic influences in the federal government.” White has criticized the “pervasive effect” of the LGBTQ community on society. Following the October 28, 2022 attack on Paul Pelosi, husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, White promoted the false conspiracy theory that the attack was the result of Paul Pelosi’s involvement in an extramarital gay affair.
He has called for an American Jubilee which would eliminate taxes.
How exactly does he believe the Government could run without tax revenue? Are the rich MAGA folks like the Koch brothers going to pay for road repairs and Senators’ salaries? Is this the kind of illogical person you want representing you in the Senate?
