Reason #7: Even compared to other Republicans, Forest, true to form, has taken much more extreme stances on reopening.
The Daily Beast noted Forest’s extreme stance on reopening:

“By late June, Forest was proudly championing an effort to take Cooper to court over his public health executive orders. The lieutenant governor abandoned that charge last month after a court ruled against him.”
