Back in 2020, after Donald Trump lost the presidential election, the official account of the Arizona Republican Party started getting a little... wild.
In late night tweets, they started asking followers if they were ready to die for Trump.

When another Twitter user called the person behind the account "one of the funniest posters in the state," the AZGOP's comms director posted this:
Days later, on Dec. 14, 2020, the Arizona Republican Party posted footage of the fake electors signing. That video is now a key piece of evidence in the Arizona criminal indictment of the fake electors.

Cut to Jan. 6.
The Arizona GOP posts this tweet of far-right influencer Raheem Kassam, who happened to be livestreaming at the time of the photo.
