Arizona GOP State Sen Wendy Rogers seized an opportunity yesterday to meet NASCAR’s Brandon Brown, the true-to-life “Let’s go Brandon” who she referred to as an “Honest, Hardworking American.”
Brown was at the Phoenix Raceway for a NASCAR Xfinity Series Championship race in Phoenix, Arizona, where he finished 20th.
In a tweet, his team, Brandonbilt Motorsports reported his finish position and said, “Thank you to @tradethechain, @SENTtoken, @PlatyPunks_Real and @DogelonMars for coming on board with us this weekend!”
Brown had previously had some difficulty getting sponsorships, but after his now famous first victory, he was well covered this past weekend.
Rogers quote tweeted the Motorsports team and shared a picture of her and Brown giving a thumbs up.
“Great to meet true-to-life #LetsGoBrandon tonight at @phoenixraceway. He’s an honest, hardworking American who represents what’s right and noble about #Merica@NASCAR,” Rogers declared.

Brown has been a bit less than enthusiastic to embrace his new found fame, not apparently wanting to get in the middle of the politics.
Like it or not, however, he will be a part of something that will go down in history, essentially making his legacy immortal.
Perhaps if he goes on to have a very successful career, it will be more of a footnote, but for now, he has something he can always point to.
Typically, NASCAR Xfinity series wins are not celebrated or even noted by the vast majority of the population outside of the fanbase.
NASCAR’s president Steve Philips recently tried to distance the company from the whole thing as headlines claimed that he “denounced” the chant.
In regards to “Let’s Go Brandon” shirts that have the NASCAR logo on them, Philips insisted, “We will pursue whoever (is using logos) and get that stuff. That’s not OK. It’s not OK that you’re using our trademarks illegally, regardless of whether we agree with what the position is.”
Phelps added, “It’s an unfortunate situation and I feel for Brandon, I feel for Kelli (Stavast). I think unfortunately it speaks to the state of where we are as a country. We do not want to associate ourselves with politics, the left or the right.”
