Martha McSally Neck-Deep in McConnell Swamp Money, Kelli Ward Standing with Trump

The #NeverTrump GOP establishment is pouring money and resources into duping Arizona voters into backing a non-Trump supporting “Republican” in a crucial U.S. Senate race.

“Allies of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell dove into the middle of a major Senate race Thursday, airing ads to help remake Rep. Martha McSally (R-Ariz.) as a border hawk ahead of her August primary with two prominent immigration hard-liners,” wrote Politico in June.

Because of selfish Arpaio, McSally will probably become the nominee.

And the senate will get another McCain/Flake (or a democrat, but I repeat myself).

Come on Arizona, you can do it! You can give us two more pieces of $hit GOPe “Senators.” And FWIW, f*ck Arpaio! If the old coot can’t see what he’s doing, or he’s complicit, we need to dump him.

Agree, Arpaio kinda screwed us on this one. He would be one term at best and he knows it.

Trump is responsible for this. He should have endorsed Ward when she was alone in the race. If he had, no one else would have jumped in.

He should go out there and support her and tell old Joe to stay on the porch.

I am hearing a lot of anti-Kelly Ward ads on the radio.

I know Kelly a little bit, and these are vicious, deceitful ads.

For example, Kelly authored a bill to prevent state law enforcement from cooperating with federal law enforcement if federal law enforcement attempted to confiscate guns.

The ad says Kelly Ward authored a bill to prevent state law enforecement from cooperating with the NSA to prevent terrorism.

They are bad, so bad, they may backfire.

I hope so.

I’ve seen people here advocating we vote for this awful woman. She is everything we hate about the GOP-e. She is endorsed by McCain, didn’t endorse Trump, and it is rumored that she voted for Hillary. She won’t say.

So old Joe Perot gets in the race to see to it McSally wins instead of Ward. It won’t be McCain or Flake, y’all. It will be Kyrsten Sinema winning. She is drop dead gorgeous, dresses like a girl and is easy on the eyes. She says “independent independent, independent’ in her ads, not Democrat.

Drab old betraying feminist McSally will likely get thumped as people like me stay home or vote for Sinema, pretty poison over Raggedy Ann. Not doing the vote for Republican losers this time to hear y’all bitch at me for the next six years. I’m done.

And you Freepers who complain about us while your own senators are far worse (California) can suck eggs.

Don’t blame Trump. McSally is a liar and an opportunist. She runs ads showing Trump saying things that appears he endorsed her.

I used to live in her district. When Jesse Kelly beat her in her first run, she never lifted a hand to help him in the general. He was a good candidate, but it’s always about Martha. She is rumored to be playing for the other team in her personal life. At least Sinema is honest about that one.

I was riding a bus with some guys I work with, everyone one of them was talking about how “smoking hot’ Sinema is. And if she never mentions firearms, look out. This is a very likely Democrat pickup. The GOP-e would rather have Sinema win than Ward.

Kelli Ward has already ran in a head-to-head race (against McCain) in 2016 and got trounced.

Arpaio had nothing to do with her loss.

Vote for Ward in the primary. But if she loses, then you have got to hold your nose for McSally. Even McCain and Flake voted for Trump's judges and tax cuts. I don't give a damn if Pelosi endorses her. We need to hold both houses of Congress in November.

OUST RINOS IN PRIMARIES, NOT IN GENERAL ELECTIONS

“She is drop dead gorgeous...”

As judged on what planet?

“Drab old betraying feminist McSally will likely get thumped as people like me stay home or vote for Sinema...”

Only if your political judgment is as bad as your eyesight! I really dislike McSally. That goes back to when I was in the military. But if it comes to McSally versus Sinema, I’ll vote McSally with enthusiasm and try to get her out in 6 years.

Wonder why Arizona voters are so easily fooled... and for decades... no name, the flake, and now McCain-Sally.

You think McSally is going to pull a Flake and start criticizing and obstructing Trump's agenda if she wins?

She will be back out in the streets again in six years.

The conservative electorate has drastically changed. If she won't advance Trump's agenda, then she's already history. Look at what is happening to Republicans who won't support Trump's agenda.

We have the same exact situation here in WI. The female candidate was notoriously anti-Trump. I intend to vote for Nicholson in the primary, but if Vukmir wins, you better believe I will be voting for her in the general. Because she is not going to pull that RINO obstructionist crap.

So I believe that McSally's changes are genuine.

So what if she's getting money from the Chamber of Commerce? Let them waste their money on her and be disappointed when she fully commits to MAGA.

Vote for Ward in the primary. But if McSally wins, then you have no choice but to vote for her. Because Trump's judges and agenda is on the line and if one of the houses of Congress flips, MAGA is screwed. We have got to support Republicans and hold their feet to the fire. This mid-term is not the year to be pissing and moaning because your candidate didn't win.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Only in your dream world.
They will get their money’s worth as she stalls the wall and criticizes Trump on cue from the Ministry of Propaganda, just like McCain, Flake, Romney, Corker, etc. etc., etc.

Cheap Labor Express stooges stay bought.

There is no holding their feet to any fire.
They don’t work for the citizens.

Kelly is the obvious choice but old Joe is sucking away her votes. (Here in Phoenix it’s easy to tell which signs belong to Arpaio, they are the ones that are vandalized) It’s true she lost against McVain but I consider it a good thing she ran against the odds so that people like me could vote against McPain in a primary. I can say right now I don’t want to have Socialist McSally in the Senate. Her ads are simply chuck full of lies piled on lies. Of Course I expect that from the RAT party so if it comes down to voting for Sally or a RAT I’ll hold my nose and go with McSocialist lite.
