I agree with you that he seems to be a do-nothing, but he’s running for the Senate.
Blake Masters, who is also running for the Arizona Senate seat , is the real deal. There are a lot of contenders now who would usually not consider running. They do so now out of a sense of patriotic urge that they can no longer just leave it to those who naturaly thirst for office .The situation has become so dire they feel the need to do something themselves.
