'DONATE to TRUMP & Kick Beat & Pee on VILE Effigy of Biden'
Biden Beaten in Effigy at TRUMPS' Kansas GOP Fundraiser
Biden Effigy Kicked & Spat on by Republicans at Kansas Fundraising Event - DONATE

TRUMPS' Supporters -TRAILER TRASH
Kansas Republicans have condemned a fundraiser Friday night where TRUMPS' attendees paid to kick and beat an effigy of President Joe Biden, distancing themselves from extremists who have seized control of the party.
The Biden-bashing antics were part of a Kansas GOP event in Johnson County, where rocker Ted Nugent and disgraced former Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline were the main attractions.
A video posted by “MolonLabeTruth” to the far-right social media platform Rumble shows “highlights” from the event, which also included karate chops to blocks that read “Let’s Go, Brandon,” code for a profane insult of Biden.
The video shows several people at the event attempting a roundhouse kick to a mannequin bust with a Biden mask and “Let’s Go, Brandon” T-shirt. Another woman is seen beating the president’s face with a foam bat.
A video originally posted on Rumble by MolonLabeTruth and shared by Mike Kuckelman on Facebook shows “highlights” from the event.
Kansas GOP chairman Mike Brown, an election denier who narrowly won the leadership position a year ago, touted the fundraiser event for weeks in official GOP emails — with no mention of the Biden effigy.
General admission tickets were listed at $100, with premier seats for $300.
Brown didn’t respond to an email seeking comment for this story.
On Saturday, former GOP chairman Mike Kuckelman condemned the Biden bashing in a post on Kuckelman’s personal Facebook page. Other Republicans joined him in comments on the post.
Kuckelman said guests at the event were invited to beat the Biden effigy in exchange for a donation. He called for the resignations of Brown and Johnson County Republican Party chairwoman Maria Holiday.
“This conduct is shameful, and it is WRONG. Brown and Holiday must resign,” Kuckelman wrote. “Republicans, especially elected Republicans, must demand the resignations of Brown and Holiday. Silence is complicity in this case.”
Kuckelman said Republicans “rightfully demanded” that Kathy Griffin be canceled after a photo emerged with her holding a bloody, severed replica of then-President Donald Trump’s head. Republicans “must speak equally as loudly” about the bashing of Biden’s effigy, Kuckelman wrote.
“I don’t agree with President Biden’s policies, but he is a fellow human being,” Kuckelman wrote. “No one should condone or defend this horrific and shameful conduct.”
