Arizona GOP Senate candidate Blake Masters was fiercely rebuked in an open letter penned by former teachers and classmates, along with other alumni from his school.

The Donald Trump -backed Masters will lead Arizona down a dark, dystopian path if he wins election in November, the alumni of Green Fields Country Day School in Tuscon warned in the letter shared by the Arizona Mirror on Thursday.

He peddles extremist ideology attacking veterans, calling abortion demonic, being endorsed by Neo-Nazis, blaming gun violence on Black people, frankly, and thats just the tip of the iceberg, they wrote .
