The Texas Tribune reports:
Tarrant County Republican Party Chair Bo French is under fire this week for a series of recent social media posts in which he repeatedly called his political opponents slurs for gay people and people with disabilities. “This is the gayest ad in history,” French, 55, wrote in an Oct. 11 response to a Democratic advertisement on X. “Guarantee every one of these ‘dudes’ is a homo. There is literally nothing manly about any of them.”
“Retard strength,” he wrote Tuesday under a video from the World Series. “Never go full retard,” he said in response to Liz Cheney on Oct. 4. In another post, French polled his 14,000 followers about the upcoming election between Harris and Trump. “If you believe Harris’ policies are better for Americans than Trumps’ policies, you are:” he asked before listing four choices. “Ignorant,” “A liar,” “Retarded,” or “Gay.”

More Republicans blasting Tarrant County GOP Chair Bo French for frequently calling people “gay” and the R-word on social media. French is an ally of the Tim Dunn network, and Tarrant County is a key battleground that has become increasingly purple in recent years. #txlege pic.twitter.com/dTUkoKGYyC
