It seems that Florida Republican Party Chairman Christian Ziegler (of “I’m going after the LGBTQ community while my wife and I have a sexual affair with another woman” fame) is now under pressure to step down after being accused of rape. I’m not well-versed on Florida politics, (maybe someone here can offer some enlightenment) but why Ziegler, and why now? Of course Republican hypocrisy is a well-known trait, but is there more to this story about why Florida Republicans have knives out for this guy? acts of sexual assault or rape. There’s a long list of Republicans who are cut from the same creepy cloth as Ziegler, but the Florida Republican Party doesn’t seem to be going after any of them.
