I ‘m a real Republican
In the great state of Arizona
By real I mean I kneel and squeal
For the august one, King Donald
On election night, we watched TV
When Trump’s count began losing steam
Don told us to stop the count while he’s still got the lead
Living the MAGA dream
We grabbed our guns and pickup trucks
And drove to where they were counting
With Stop the Count signs and plenty of ammo
And big mouths for our shouting
I guess our signs didn’t look too cool
Messaging not ideal
So we went ahead and changed ‘em
From Stop the Count to Stop the Steal
But they just kept on counting
And the tide never did turn
The official count of Biden’s win
Forever I will spurn
Lawyers filed their lawsuits
Politicians did their thing
But even with the help of Rudy G
The votes we could not swing
Our next best bet was Jan 6
When Congress tallied electoral votes
Some folks wanted to send alternate Republican electors
Even though Joe Biden won the vote
Now a few Republican electors
Didn’t go along with this Hail Mary
So I said, put me in coach, I’ll sign my name
And be a real Arizona player
Now a year later, some folks are stirring up a fuss
Talking forgery and fraud
OK, we mailed a bogus document to Congress to disrupt the election
But we did it for Country, Trump and God
Now it don’t look good and I’m afraid
I think I might be fallin’
Off a cliff with my fellow signees
Now that the law has come a callin’
But keep the faith, it’s all we got
Even if we go down
I know when Trump wins again
It’s pardons all around!

Arizona’s phony electors aren’t patriots, they’re traitors
EJ Montini. Arizona Republic, 14 Jan 2022
Trump supporters near the U.S Capitol, on Jan. 06, 2021 in Washington, DC. The protesters stormed the historic building, breaking windows and clashing with police. Trump supporters had gathered in the nation’s capital today to protest the ratification of President-elect Joe Biden’s Electoral College victory over President Trump in the 2020 election.
One of the great mistakes we’ve made during the Trump era, and there have been many, is failing to call out traitors who claim to be patriots.
They are cumbersome words – patriot and traitor. They’re old-fashioned, weighty, archaic, lodged in the throats of second-rate actors in B movies. It takes something close to arrogance to insist that you are a patriot or to accuse someone else of being a traitor.
But if you claim to be a patriot and then act in a way that contradicts the entire notion of what that means, what else would you be but a traitor?
So how else should we view the men and women who signed fake electoral certificates after the 2020 election hoping to subvert that constitutional work of the Electoral College, overturn the outcome of a duly certified election and, in essence, stage a coup that would have kept Donald Trump in office?
Fake electors hail from 7 shameful states
The fake certificates, in which the signatories claim to be valid electors, were sent to the National Archives. The idea was to replace valid presidential electors with a pro-Trump group, and they were concocted by Trump sycophants in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Nevada, New Mexico and – of course – Arizona.
They claimed it as a patriotic gesture, and they were written off eventually as a publicity stunt.
Arizona actually has had two slates of fake electors. The Arizona Republic’s Ronald Hansen wrote about them a month after the election.
The phony certificates and those behind them have become news again by way of the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection.
Copies of the documents were obtained by American Oversight and published online.
Why did those from Arizona sign?
Arizona’s phony document is signed by Dr. Kelli Ward (Arizona’s GOP chair), Dr. Michael Ward, Greg Safsten, Samuel I. Moorehead, Robert Montgomery, James Lamon, Jake Hoffman, Tyler Bowyer, Loraine B. Pellegrino and Nancy Cottle.
Earlier this week, state Rep. Jake Hoffman, who signed the bogus certificate, dodged and weaved away from a 12 News photojournalist and from The Republic’s Richard Ruelas who were interested in finding out why he’d signed the fake declaration.
