At the Congressional District (CD) Eight Debate last night (October 5, 2020,) Democratic Nominee Michael Muscato made a passing reference to CD Five incumbent Andy Biggs, calling him a “Fake Doctor” for his outrageous views (like not wearing masks for example) on how not to combat the Coronavirus Pandemic.
The Freedom Circ…Caucus Chairperson lived up to Mr. Muscato’s designation last week after Mr. Trump and his wife was diagnosed with the COVID 19. In a tweet wishing the First Family well, Mr. Biggs encouraged the Trumps to take the scientifically and medically unreliable Hydroxychloroquine as a treatment.
I send my best wishes and prayers to President @realDonaldTrump & @FLOTUS for quick recoveries from COVID-19.
I encourage them to take hydroxychloroquine to assist with their recoveries, & I am confident that they will be resuming their normal routines in the very near future. pic.twitter.com/LFxIWwvjo5

Fortunately, Trump’s physicians are ignoring Dr. Biggs and giving him, despite the Stable Genius’s best attempts to circumvent their protocols, the medical treatment befitting his position.
Joan Greene, the Democratic Nominee in CD Five looking to retire Biggs in the November Elections, issued a statement to her social media followers, commenting:
“For months, Rep. Andy Biggs has minimized the threat of COVID-19. He asked Trump to disband the national COVID-19 task force, he has ridiculed masks, and he has continued to promote unproven remedies.”
“So what did he do when Trump was diagnosed? Rep. Biggs doubled down on his dangerous messaging.”
“A staunch Trump supporter and the leader of the radical right Freedom Caucus, Andy Biggs released a video praising Trump’s work to reduce the risk of infection, and he recommended the president and first lady take hydroxychloroquine.”
“Biggs does not have any medical training, yet he continues to use his office and position to further a false narrative that puts our lives at risk.”
“He’s the most extreme member of Congress today, and our fight to unseat him in the battleground state of Arizona is gaining traction.”

The people in CD Five deserve a representative that will speak scientific truth to them and not fringe dogma fantasy.
Joan Greene is that person.
Mr. Biggs has proven he is not.
