Doug Mastriano has a habit of quoting from history and angering his fellow Republicans.

The state senator from Franklin County and nominee for Pennsylvania governor made a pitch for support Tuesday at a meeting of the Republican Governors Association in Aspen, Colorado, where he was given a few minutes to speak during lunch.

“We must all hang together, or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately,” Mastriano told a crowded luncheon, according to someone in the room, citing a quote often attributed to Benjamin Franklin at the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

The RGA, indifferent to Mastriano from his primary election win in May to earlier this week, showed no sign at the meeting of wishing to hang with him. The group ended the meeting with no commitment to endorse or fund Mastriano’s campaign.

Mastriano could use the RGA’s deep pockets. He had about $400,000 in the bank as of June 6 while the Democratic nominee, state Attorney General Josh Shapiro, had more than $13 million.

Sounds like even the party echelon aren't all that crazy about him either. Or is he banking on MAGA nutcases sending him money?
