    This is the person the Republicans nominated to run for Senate in Delaware.

    She believes this about Covid:


    "This bio-weapon is demonic," she wrote. "I've lost all of my senses and struggle with constant indifference, brain fog, and I've lost my joy."

    In posts shared on her Telegram channel, Witzke blamed TruNews for making her aware of the infection, insisting that nasal swabs were ultimately responsible for her getting COVID-19. "I'm an idiot for submitting to their demands and getting tested," she wrote, "and yes I know I need a good husband in my life to keep me from making bad decisions."


    she also believes:

    Prior to her departure, Witzke attributed a June outbreak of COVID-19 among TruNews staff to a "demonic attack" for having hosted far-right provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos, a former Breitbart writer who now claims to be "ex-gay." "I don't think it's any coincidence that the TruNews crew all got deathly ill, got very sick, right after they brought Milo on," she said, as reported by PinkNews.

    Witzke currently works with Stew Peters, an online broadcaster who has repeatedly pushed false claims about vaccines. On his program, Witzke herself claimed that COVID-19 vaccinations were a "mass death scale injection" that would precede the end of the world.

    In October, a supporter of Witzke's campaign was convicted of two felonies for pointing a gun at people who were protesting her campaign. The conviction, she maintained, was the product of an "anti-white, and anti-conservative system" that is "coming for us all."




    This is the kind of people the GOP is nominating to lead our country. This is VERY frightening.

    I'm not insane as far as I know and I agree with part of that. I tested positive in November and there is ABSOLUTELY no way that I was exposed. I'm divorce, live alone, have had NO contact with anybody with the exception of going to get tested. It just isn't possible that I was exposed. Zero. It's been almost a year since I tested positive and none of the medical staff in my doctors office ever tested positive. In fact, I don't know anybody in my vicinity that has tested positive except me. I lost two family members in January but they are the only two I know of that had it.

    Obviously, neither she nor I can prove it had something to do with the swab but some day, when all this is behind us, this will be a huge festering open sore that will need to be addressed. I'm not saying it's a bio-weapon but I would not be shocked to learn there is something else going on.

    PS All politicians have to have a little bit of crazy. Normal, non-toxic people don't want to be anywhere near that swamp.

    Well, she's telling the truth! She lost ALL her senses and it's obvious that she struggles with brain fog. No doubt about that. Exactly the characteristics required to become a Republican Senator!

    so you think its rational and logical to believe that Covid is a secret evil plot to kill of white christians? that covid is actually spread through masks and covid tests?

    It doesn't matter, Delaware isn't about to elect a republican to the senate. You have to go all the way back to William Roth as the last GOP senator from Delaware. Kook or no Kook, it makes no difference.

    Swabs are sterile - they HAVE to be. This virus is so transmissible that you only need to walk through the same area as an infected person to be infected

    Just a SWAG, but when you know you're going to lose, why not let the kook side have their candidate to sate them. Next time when the chances are better, you can nominate a better candidate with the kooks going along since you let them have theirs.

    I'm pretty sure that I said none of that. Maybe a re-read might help.

    I have medical experience. I've also clearly stated many times on this forum that I had absolutely NO risks. NONE. Never left the house after February 2020 when this started except to go for the swab prior to an upcoming surgery.

    And, fyi, I'm not mentally retarded. I think anybody over the age of about 9-10 years old understand how airborne pathogens work so I would kindly appreciate it if you stopped talking to me like I have some kind of cognitive difficulty. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

    This a pretty lame excuse for nominating a psychopath to be your party's nominee to run for Senate.

    Ive heard of Neo-Nazis running on the GOP platform for the House, but this is different.

    So you're telling us you had ZERO contact with any human beings before testing positive? You are a complete hermit who NEVER leaves home, ever?

    I dont believe you.

    The excuse, maybe, maybe not, but it doesn't matter. The GOP could run Eisenhower or Lincoln for senator in Delaware and they'd lose. At least in today's atmosphere. I wouldn't worry about it.

    Given that you nominated and elected a person with dementia for president, I am not much concerned about a senator from Delaware.

    It doesn't frighten me, because I don't see it as realistic that the Delaware electorate is going to choose, for its Senator, someone who admits to a constant struggle with brain fog. Though I admit I could be mistaken. The part about her having lost her senses, being joyless, and suffering with routine indifference, certainly puts her "on-brand," for the new Trumpublican Party.

    I know you've been resisting it as hard as you can, but I'm afraid you may have been thrown in the hysterical anti-vaxxer basket, MJ. :nana:
    Just to be clear, are you saying that you haven't left your house since February 2020?

    Absolutely. Normal people rarely run for office, and on the rare occassion they do, they drop out quickly upon realizing what they've signed up for.

    If more of them were honest about their insanity (props to this woman for speaking her true mind), we might stop giving the lunatics so much power...

    I was involved in a vehicle fire during the Summer of 2019. I got the insurance money but opted not to replace it. I pay someone to go grocery shopping and other errands for me and I do not have a supportive family. I do not have any visitors ever and I do not associate with my neighbors.

    I don't really give a damn what you believe. All that is on whatever imaginings are happening in your head and has nothing to do with me.

    Don't care. It doesn't matter what people call me. It only matters what I answer to. ;-)
    I did not say that. I said that I have never left my house since the shelter-in-place started here (in IL) except to go for the COVID testing prior to having surgery.

    No. I pay someone to run my errands, pay my bills, etc.. She leaves my stuff outside my door and calls me when it's there so I can retrieve it. She picks up my laundry and brings it back to my door clean and folded. She gets my mail and leaves it at my door.

    I was very unwell last Summer and she got management to let her in and she took me to the hospital. I wasn't strong enough to be Life Flighted to a bigger hospital so I was in the hospital here for about 10 days. I was tested then and was negative each time.

    She was allowed to visit me after we BOTH tested negative. Our hospital has a 1 visitor policy (per each admission) so whomever you choose is the ONLY visitor you can have as long as you're in the hospital. To be on the safe side, I told her not to visit me so she was only there when she took me to the ER and when I was going to be discharged. She came to help me get settled at home.

    That happened in the Summer of 2020. I had not been anywhere or around anyone except her (as described above) except when I went to get tested as required prior to having surgery. She was tested because of my positive diagnosis and tested negative. The ONLY contact I had with any third party was getting tested. To this day, neither one of us can figure out how I was exposed.

    Even with an incubation period, it doesn't add up. I tested positive mid-November, a full 3.5 months after that hospitalization.

    Given the level and intensity of so many Americans agreeing that Trump should resort to violence to reclaim the POTUS seat, I'd argue that we get exactly what we deserve. Toxic and dysfunctional every day of the week.

    (Thanks for sharing. That sounds like a tough time.)

    Very strange!

    A very simple explanation is that it was a "false positive".

    I think that's it. It's the only thing that makes sense in my situation.

    Several months ago my doctor approved me having physical therapy after I took a nasty fall and refused to go to the physical therapy site. A physical therapist came to me for a few months and taught me various exercises I could do to strengthen problem areas (I fall quite a bit). I was telling her about my positive COVID test and the impossibility of me being exposed to anybody. She told me that she had about 30 in-home clients at that time and HALF of them had the exact same thing happen. Like you, she concluded it was a false positive.

    Sorry but YOU were the one suggesting you could get it from a swab. Meanwhile we has a case here where someone tested positive because they were in the same shopping centre for only 10 minutes
