“I do not think there is a real person in Missouri who is literally thinking about it. Not one “, said Gratens in an interview with KFTK radio (97.1 FM). “What you are seeing is a huge fake rage from the left and RINO.” The video, released Monday, shows Greitens holding a shotgun and accompanying a team armed with rifles and grenade launchers as they rush into a house in search of RINO. “Join the MAGA crew,” says Greitens, a former Navy SEAL. “Get a RINO hunting license. “There is no baggage limit, no labeling limit and it does not expire until we save our country.”

Later on Tuesday, on Kansas City’s KCMO talk radio, the Republican candidate for the US Senate Open in Missouri said the controversial video was “obviously an allegory.” “Every normal person in the state of Missouri has seen this,” said Gretens, who is seeking a political return after stepping down as governor in 2018. Greitens’s campaign did not respond to requests for comment from Post-Dispatch. During his brief and difficult tenure as governor and his candidacy for the Senate, Gretens has parroted former President Donald Trump’s allegations in the “mainstream media.” The 38-second video was shared by other Republicans and Democrats, as well as outside groups. The Eagle Forum PAC, the political action committee set up by the late Phyllis Schlafly, denounced the video as “deeply disturbing”. “Defending violence is an exclusion from public office,” said President Anne Schlafly Cori. “Eric Gretens is not capable of serving the voters of Missouri.” The Missouri State Lodge of the Fraternal Police Battalion, which has supported Attorney General Eric Smith in the lively GOP primary, also criticized the ad. “This deplorable video has no place in our political system and sends a dangerous message that it is somehow acceptable to kill those with different political beliefs,” the statement said. Others who denounced the video were some of his opponents in the GOP, including U.S. Vicky Hartzler and Missouri Senate Speaker Dave Schatz. Schmitt’s campaign posted a rolled emoji on Twitter. Amid rising political violence, ranging from the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and the arrest of a man who threatened to kill U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Cavanaugh, Facebook downloaded the video and Twitter posted a warning on the link. . Gretens, who also used violent images in his successful run for governor in 2016, said critics did not have the substance of the video. “He has a sense of humor,” he told KTFK.
