Is this an attempt to disrupt my efforts to become the Utah GOP Chairman?”

Robert Wilkie is a white nationalist extremist appointed by President Trump as Secretary of Veteran Affairs. A long-time member of the Sons of the Confederate Veterans, he said abolitionists were radical, dishonest, and enemies of liberty. When he was in the Bush Administration, he participated in a Confederate Memorial wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington, saluting the Confederate flag. When he was appointed by Trump, he said that was all behind him, though he lied about his membership in the SCV. However, he earned his place on the list with his unprofessional efforts to discredit a woman who reported being sexually harassed and assaulted at the Washington, D.C. VA hospital.
