Astronaut Mark Kelly, the husband of former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (D), is running for Sen. Martha McSally's (R-AZ) during the 2020 election cycle. In the midst of the Mueller report dump, it was revealed that Kelly repaid $55,000 to the United Arab Emirates for a speech he gave last year, CNN reported.
Kelly gave a speech alongside his twin brother, Scott Kelly, who is also an astronaut. The speech was part of an event sponsored by the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, called "The Sky is not the Limit: Life Lessons from NASA's Kelly Brothers." The speaking engagement was even promoted by the United States Embassy in the United Arab Emirates.

Probably because the money was revealed. Part of charlie bolden and obxxx's NASA moose limb outreach? The candidate is a disgrace to his Navy uniform. Obviously does not give any validity to the oath he took. I took mine in '67 and it's still in effect today 52 years later. I don't know where his brother stands. Ass-tro-naught.

"Well, I uh... actually, I uh, I bought that AR-15 last week for the POLICE!! Yeah, that's the ticket, that AR-15 at my house that I bought last week, I bought it TO DONATE TO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, and as a matter of fact I'm headed home to get it and to deliver it to them, THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, right now."
(Or other words to that same effect.)

We love our guns in AZ. He wouldn’t win against McSally. McSally though could use some help with the campaign.

Excellent idea, particularly in states that where Bush League Republicans have a lock on the GOP.

Is anyone even trying? If the number of Dems we ran across at the pre-election Trump rally is any indication, DINOs areally out there.
And Trump broke the mold of what a candidate has to do to win. If people really want a choice, then a huge warchest and a willingness to do stupid candidate tricks in voters’ front yards will no longer be de rigeur.

Because Sinema ran strong in her congressional district. That may not happen this time around.

Yeah, I remember that. But, being in the dem cabal, no problem. He and she reared their heads plenty here in NV pushing for intergalactic background checks.

The boy is running for the Senate. Time to clean up the messes, get rid of the skeletons and fumigate his past. He wants Arizonians to think he walks on water. Dumb bastard.

Even though Trump will carry AZ (?)

Several Republican Senate candidates lost bids in states Trump won in 2016.

Because the RNC lacks aggressive leadership.

But an incumbent losing while Trump wins?
Of course there is 100+ years of statistics on appointed Senators running for election like 2018 election loser McSally.
