ST. LOUIS Mo. (AP) — The former head of the Missouri Republican Party said she resigned early because of disturbing and sometimes threatening messages she was receiving from supporters of President Donald Trump.
Jean Evans resigned last week, three weeks before her term was to end. She told KMOX on Thursday that calls from Trump supporters became more aggressive after the president lost the election in November.
Some callers demanded a military coup to keep Trump in office “no matter what it takes,” Evans said. Others wanted the party to bus people to protest in Washington, which it doesn't do.
