Dave Daubenmire to Keynote GOP Fundraiser in Ohio

Radical right-wing activist Dave Daubenmire will be the keynote speaker at a fundraising event next week organized(link is external) by the Harrison County (Ohio) Republican Party. Committee member Chuck Harrah declares that Daubenmire is a perfect fit for the event because he is "a great man" and "a genuine hero":

“Dave Daubenmire is a great example of a man on a mission to be the voice for me and millions of others that comprise the silent majority of the United States of America, by using his faith-based ministry to empower his audience,” Harrah said.

Harrah said that Daubenmire has inspired many people, including himself.

“Not only does he talk the talk, but he also walks the walk. He is a great inspiration to myself and many others. He is the voice of reason; he is the guy you would want to be in the foxhole with when things are at the worst,” he said.

Harrah said Daubenmire is a dynamic speaker, specializing in the Constitution, patriotism, Christian values and cataclysmic events that are occurring on a global scale.

“A great man to be looked up to and a genuine hero to anybody that really knows him,” Harrah said of Daubenmire. “That’s why it is so fitting and symbolic that with all the turmoil and calamity that is occurring, at almost epic proportions on a global scale, that coach Dave’s message is more important than ever before and epitomizes what is good and decent about this great nation.”

As we noted(link is external) a few months ago when Daubenmire scored VIP tickets to a Trump campaign rally, Daubenmire is actually a deeply bigoted(link is external), anti-Semitic(link is external), anti-choice(link is external), anti-LGBTQ(link is external), right-wing(link is external) conspiracy theorist(link is external) who recently made news(link is external) as part of a fringe effort to pressure(link is external) authorities in Chappaqua, New York, to arrest Hillary Clinton, against whom he claims the Holy Spirit has issued an indictment (link is external)so that she will be sent to prison, where she will be taught to fear God.(link is external)

Daubenmire is the sort of belligerent activist who proudly declares that women become lesbians because(link is external) they are so ugly that no man could ever love them, asserts that Barack Obama was(link is external) "a quasi-Muslim freak" and "an emissary from Hell,(link is external)" warns that Oprah Winfrey was planning to run for president in order to carry out(link is external) a white genocide, complains(link is external) that he is not allowed to say the "N-word," gripes(link is external) that the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle was a “psy op” intended to promote “the blending of the races," and calls(link is external) interracial marriage "spiritual AIDS."

Daubenmire has defended(link is external) Roy Moore, the Westboro Baptist Church(link is external), and the "patriots(link is external)" who marched at the white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017. He has also declared(link is external) that only evangelical Christians should be allowed to serve on the Supreme Court, proclaimed(link is external) that a woman can never be president "because women are not to have authority over men," lamented(link is external) that the North won the Civil War, and called for(link is external) the embrace of a "more violent Christianity."
