Good claims McGuire is a "Phony."
Primary Primmer: Comparing claims and records of McGuire and Good. OPINION
I read most of the newsletters I get from the Good and McGuire camps, as well as Social Media posts. The content has solidified my support of McGuire because I find Bob Good to be a consummate phony, and what follows is why.
Claim: McGuire voted for the ERA amendment in the Virginia Legislature.
FALSE. McGuire never voted for the ERA Bill; no one voted for it in 2018, and he voted against subsequent attempts six times.
FACT: McGuire was sworn in on Jan 10, 2018, two days before the ERA bill circulated for sponsors. A freshman Delegate, McGuire openly admits he was misled about the nature of this bill which died in Committee in 2018- and never reached the floor for a vote. Learning the underlying intent, McGuire submitted a request to withdraw his name. McGuire was not a co-signer to subsequent bills in 2019 as HJ-579, and in 2020 as HJ-1 and voted them down six times until dead. You can verify this on LIS. Bob Good is willfully misleading you.
If he misleads you about this to save his neck, what else is he lying to you about?
Claim: McGuire supports men in girl’s bathrooms. Also based on the ERA lie, which, in all of its permutations, never mentioned transgenderism! The closest it comes is ‘eliminate sexual discrimination.’ Bob Good sent the text below, and it is total BS. The only thing “born again” about Team Bob is this ERA myth, which failed to sway Republicans at the 10th Senate Primary, where McGuire won in historic proportions in a field of four.
“My opponent--RINO John McGuire, sponsored a constitutional amendment that would have enshrined transgender men's rights to play on women's sports teams and use the same bathrooms and locker rooms.
John McGuire is off target on our Virginia values. He simply can not be trusted to stand up for our fifth district families.”
Paid for by Good for Congress
Bob Good endorsed this tranny- Read it here.
“Becker touts the endorsements of Rep. Bob Good (R-VA), Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), and Chip Roy (R-TX), who all supported Governor Ron DeSantis in his failed bid to stop Trump from becoming president again.
Good’s pays Bonnie and Clyde Strategies LLC to concoct this stuff because they believe you aren’t smart enough to check it. They never offer Bob Good’s record because he can’t get bills passed into law, so they want to scare you away from McGuire. Fear is the favorite weapon of Democrats.
If he misleads you on this to save his neck, what else is he lying to you about?
Claim: McGuire is anti-Gun! What? Bahahahaha. A SEAL sniper is anti-gun. I’m not going to waste much of your time on this.
Fact: McGuire, while attending an NRA rally, confronted anti-gun protesters. Unlike chicken Bob, who never confronts the Left face to face, McGuire walked into the middle of the protestors and engaged them. He’s done the same as a delegate- walked into a Democrat Caucus meeting and convinced them not to oppose his bills that were signed into law. Team Bob found a photo of McGuire debating the protesters and spun it as support rather debate. Bob doesn’t have the mental firepower or brains to do that. Bob lies and then lies about lying.
“You can’t believe anything my opponent says. He has a consistent record of distortions, deceit, and dishonesty.” ~ Bob Good
If he misleads you on this to save his neck, what else is he lying to you about?
Claim: McGuire is giving money to illegals.
Fact: The new budget passed with 95% Republican Yeas! 95%! Bills with 51+% (R) Yeas are normative. Bob’s favorite endorser, Nick Frietas, voted for this budget! The funds are slated as such because Bob Good cost Republicans both chambers, running off moderates and independents with his McCarthy fiasco. Republicans cannot play Bob ‘No Bills’ Good’s “sledgehammer” nonsense as a minority. These funds will be redirected to Black Colleges in short order. Another whopper from Good.
Donald Trump.

Good desperately needs to distract you. He is a failure. He fails at legislating, he fails in character by his constant lying and backstabbing, and he failed to photo-bomb Donald Trump twice. Bob’s newsletter portrays him defending Trump during the trial stemming from the very indictment Trump was served the day Bob Good backstabbed him by endorsing DeSantis. This presser was plan ‘B’ when Trump snubbed Good (above). The HFC held an impromptu presser for Bob to brownnose for consumption back here. The goal of the Freedom Caucus dragging him to NYC- a picture with Trump for Bob’s campaign- never materialized. Trump despises this guy.
Good was elected on Trump’s endorsement and begged it at Mar A Lago. Bob has consistently been a Never Trumper. His consultants, the Shores, fought Trump’s nomination in 2016 alongside Ken Cuccinelli; videos of them are posted here (scroll to the bottom of the post).
Bob uses 2019-20 campaign signs and photos to fool you into believing he has Donald Trump’s support. He photoshopped himself alongside Trump in recent campaign material. Jewish Republicans slam Bob Good.
A Sample of Bob Good’s Trump Deceptions
-Was a Never-Trumper in 2016 (see screenshot above) recruited by Never-Trumpers Boyer and hired Never-Trumper Shores to primary Never-Trumper Denver Riggleman! Many wonder if the Treasurer scam was not a Boyer invention, given a FOIA request revealed he knew about it before it became public.
-Betrayed Trump on the day of his indictment.
-Uses old signage and photos to deceive voters.
-Good lies about slamming Trump.
-Admits on CNN he lies about Trump
Attempting to get a photo op at the Richmond Trump Rally, Good was kicked out of VIP seating. His consultant, Chris Shores, jumped the line, claiming his relation to Congressman Good, but was escorted to the rear of the line and made to wait his turn to enter.
Good’s nursemaid, Matt Gaetz, the “Hunter Biden of the Republican Party,” dragged the Freedom Caucus and their Chairman to NYC to schmooze a photo for Bob, who is blocked by guards and police from the background at the order of the Trump camp. The presser was to obscure the snub. See above. McGuire attempts to address the presser but is pulled away by his own campaign staff because he has no time left before his return trip. This is also mischaracterized by Good’s emails.
Bob Good’s claims to be a born-again Christian.
Good opens an examination of his faith because he invokes it and uses it to compel others to get in line behind him. He audaciously conflates Christianity with his support, demanding Ramona Christian’s fealty, a leading figure on the Trump Campaign in Virginia and Chair of the Buckingham County Republican Committee. Good had his consultants and allies conjure up a lawfare ruse to vacate the whole committee to replace it with hand-picked followers. You can listen to the real Bob Good browbeat Ms. Christian for supporting John McGuire:
Perrenial Never-Trumper Good trolls the resulting trial stemming from the indictment that Bob Good used to announce his support for DeSantis for a campaign photo-op with Trump! At home, he employs the same Lawfare tactics (here and here) against fellow Republicans in his District. He attacks their First Amendment right to pick a candidate and smears opponents with unfounded sex-based ERA allegations! He attacked the First Amendment wholesale by voting yes for the Antisemitism Awareness Act, which leaves defining hate crimes to unelected regulators (swamp)! This guy has no Christian ethics or virtues and is not a conservative. A conservative would never miss a vote on 2nd Amendment Red Flag laws or vote to gut the First Amendment.
Good’s character reflected in his choice of consultants?
Scripture is clear on associating with evil-doers. Bob Good surrounds himself with campaign strategists who model after notorious cop killers, thieves, and liars, as well as a sexual disorder known as Hybristophilia or Bonnie and Clyde Syndrome- arousal by violent criminals and their deeds.
Consultant company Bonnie and Clyde Strategies LLC is operated by Chris and Diana Shores. Both have a reputation for offering, if I may quote, a seemingly appropriate rock tune: “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap” to fix conventions and campaigns. Bob reportedly pays them $80,000.00 annually for ‘deeds’ so they certainly aren’t done cheap.
Diana Shores is chair of the Prince Edward County Republican Unit. Most would see that as a conflict of interest, but hijacking unit chair positions is normative in RPV to make the unit an extension of the chair’s favored campaigns.
These people do not model themselves and their consulting business after saints, virtues, or Founders; they choose killers. Why would a Christian convey such an image? A signal to potential customers (candidates like Bob) that they will do whatever to get the dough? Why does “born-again” Bob post Bible verses on his congressional social media accounts and hire people who model cop killers and a sexual disorder?
Why would any conservative who supports the police and law and order believe a word said by those glorifying two of the most dangerous murderers in US history?
If he misleads you on this to save his neck, what else is he lying to you about?
One last claim I recently dealt with the Dead Treasurer Scam, which has all but died because it is BS, and no legitimate media outlet will touch it.
FACT: The most significant operative words in the complaint you need to know about are “appears, apparently, and may!” That’s weasel-speak, for this is all bullshit. Lol. Read it here.
