Unfortunately, there’s probably no legal way to recall a sitting US Senator.

We tried in Jersey but even though our State Constitution has ultra clear language that says we can, the leftist traitors on the NJSC ruled that recalling a US senator is unconstitutional. Other states, thankfully are trying and, depending on the language in their constitutions and how many fecal brained dimwits sit on their SC’s, they will hopefully succeed.

The Arizona State Constitution specifically allows for the recall of elected representatives including those whose districts encompass the entire state.

A recall effort against McCain in 2001 was well under way and looked to be successful when 9/11 happened and it was suspended.

Perhaps a Constitutional battle over this will be set up. Whatever. If it weakens McCain, great. We’ll get rid of the arrogant SOB soon. He doesn’t represent Arizona and never has.

We really need to repeal the 17th amendment.
