Arizona Republicans censure Cindy McCain and GOP governor
CBS News ^ | January 24, 2021

Arizona Republicans voted Saturday to censure Cindy McCain and two prominent GOP members who have found themselves crosswise with former President Donald Trump.

The censures of Senator John McCain's widow, former Senator Jeff Flake and Governor Doug Ducey are merely symbolic. But they show the party's foot soldiers are focused on enforcing loyalty to Mr. Trump, even in the wake of an election that saw Arizona inch away from its staunchly Republican roots.

Party activists also reelected controversial Chairwoman Kelli Ward, who has been one of Mr. Trump's most unflinching supporters and among the most prolific promoters of his baseless allegations of election fraud.

No Name’s wife was at one time considered for a Senate seat.

Really? This is not the way to do it. We do what the Democrats do... Keep their arguments within the family and do whatever it takes to fix it. WE WILL NEVER WIN AGAIN UNLESS WE PLAY LIKE THEY DO. They would never put any of their Democrats out for ridicule like we just did. Flake and McCain.. fine. Who cares about them... Censure them is a resume enhancer.

But make no mistake, Democrats do force out dissidents within the party all the time.

But we have traitors in the GOP right now, and we must flush them all out.

I agree, but not like this. I am hoping that Trump puts together a group that does the following things: Vet Trump like candidates for offices, help with finding good candidates to primary those who are not on the same page, and we need to start fact checking pages for the Democrats, like they pretended to do. This group would also monitor election laws and rules, STATE BY STATE. We have to be prepared for 2022.

Baseless indeed! What a Good Thing it is to have CBS News to tell us mindless Deplorables what to think.

What a joy it would be to have these elitist so-called journalists in front of camera and microphone and ask them to justify their writings (and existence).

Senator John McCain's widow

If Cindy McCain is McCain's widow, McCain should be glad he died (forgive me if that was just wrong).

It’s not loyalty to Donald Trump, it’s loyalty to what Trump represented. But the media has to make it look like blind adoration to an individual instead of to the principles that all true Americans stand for, it’s easier to make us look like nazis.

The media can’t think abstractly enough to understand loyalty to core principles all they can think of and understand is a cult of personality type of loyalty.

Would start with primary of Liz in Wyoming.

Wyoming is a mining state; coal, oil, and natural gas. Trump pro-energy and CCP Joe wants to end fossil fuels. Her old man was CEO of Halliburton.

She picked wrong. Get rid of daddy’s elitist bitch in 2022.
