Nate McMurray called for President Trump to be Executed
County GOP Chair Karl Simmeth calls on Jeremy Zellner and Mark Poloncarz to immediately condemn Nate McMurray’s hateful attempt to divide our community
Buffalo, NY – On Monday, January 11, Chairman Karl Simmeth and the Erie County Republican Committee demanded that Erie County Democrat Leaders Jeremy Zellner and Mark Poloncarz immediately condemn Nate McMurray.
In a tweet on January 6th, three-time Endorsed Democrat Nate McMurry called for the execution of President Donald Trump. On Sunday, January 10, Nate McMurray doubled down on his dangerous rhetoric and called for the trial and execution of President Donald Trump during a live WBEN interview.
Chairman Karl Simmeth said, “Nate McMurray crossed a line. Period. The divide in our country painfully clear to all, and here we have Nate McMurray prying it open further with a crowbar. The same man who ECDC wanted to represent NY-27 is calling for the execution of President Trump. This inciteful language does nothing but agitate hate, and breed fear. Nate McMurray has flown off the handle one time too many, and I am calling on Jeremy Zellner and Mark Poloncarz to condemn his remarks.”
