I've never seen this on a ballot and, maybe with the exclusion of Trump, never heard a candidate campaign on anything similar.
replyYou probably could make the case that Trump did campaign on it so I'll grant that, but this problem started well before he was even firing people on TV.
Off the top of my head: Joe Arpeio. George Wallace. Rudy Giuliani. Paul Gosar. Louie Gohmert.
replyGeorge Wallace has been dead for something like 30 years, but yes he was very blatant. I have family that knew him in Montgomery, friends of friends kind of a situation. They don't have good things to say about him.
replyI don't remember Rudy running on such ideas but maybe he did. Arpeio was running as a sheriff, I would never have voted for him but agreed people did absolutely vote for him in a law enforcement capacity with pretty clear views.
I don't know enough about Gosar or Gohmert to comment well about either.
