(PM.) “F*ck the Fourth” was the Independence Day message from the Pima County Democratic Party of Arizona in the lead up to the holiday weekend. They deleted the tweet, but not before it was captured and reposted by Turning Point Action’s Tyler Bowyer. Pima County is the home to Democrat Senator Mark Kelly.
The message “Let’s Mourn with F*ck the Fourth. See you at Reid Park” was for an event with the Tuscon Women’s March, which added “Bring comfortable shoes, water, lawn chairs, posters, and your anger.”

I don’t care who you vote for— just don’t vote for Democrats today. They hate America.

Kari Lake, running for Senate, posted her own take on the errant tweet, saying that Arizonans who don’t vote Democrat “are celebrating America at a gun range.”
“The difference,” she said, “could not be more clear.”

After the tweet was posted, the Pima County Democratic Party added a note on the message, explaining that it was shared in “haste,” and was not even their graphic, but that they’d shared it carelessly.
The “PCDP posted a graphic advertising a women’s march which, we agree, was in poor taste. We were eager to share the event, and in our haste we used the graphic provided by the event organizer. That was a mistake, and we will do better,” they wrote, invoking the term of the progressive left to improve one’s message and outlook.
