How is this not incitement , not just by the New Mexico Repub but by Trump? Bet his base agrees with him though.
If Obama had said the same thing, the right would erupt.

Cowboys for Trump leader calls for Democratic leaders to be executed
Otero County Commissioner Couy Griffin has again stirred an outcry over his fiery political rhetoric — this time for saying certain Democratic governors should be executed for treason.
Griffin, who founded the group Cowboys for Trump, also told the Daily Beast on Tuesday that anti-lockdown protesters might be justified in using violence.
During the interview, published Wednesday, Griffin said top Democrats, such as Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, are traitors who deserve the death penalty. Both governors have imposed restrictions to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus.
“You get to pick your poison: You either go before a firing squad, or you get the end of the rope,” Griffin told the Daily Beast.
He was asked if people protesting pandemic-related shutdowns are increasingly considering violence.
“I’ll tell you what, partner, as far as I’m concerned, there’s not an option that’s not on the table,” Griffin replied.
Griffin again insisted he was speaking politically, not literally, when he said last week at a church in Truth or Consequences that “the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat.”
He repeated the comment in Tuesday’s interview just before calling for Democratic leaders to be executed, the Daily Beast said.

And ofcourse who can forget Trump's infamous words " I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters."
