The Virginia GOP, stuck on crazy/stupid:

A new member of Virginia’s Republican State Central Committee apologized over the weekend for posting anti-Muslim, anti-immigrant rhetoric on Twitter and Facebook — much of which echoed incendiary comments by presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump.

Fredy Burgos, an ardent Trump supporter who was elected to the committee in May, called Islam a “death cult organized by Satan” and compared Muslims to Nazis. He labeled Muhammad Ali a “racist black supremacist” and adopted Trump’s controversial criticism of American-born U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel, asking on Twitter, “Isn’t this Judge an ‘Anchor Baby’?”

[…]

Burgos, a former candidate for state delegate from Burke, is the Canadian-born son of Chilean immigrants. He posts regularly in English and his native Spanish about illegal immigration in the United States. After a Trump rally in Richmond in June, he posted a video of himself pushing a protester who was calling on the crowd to show more sympathy to refugees.
