One more time and for the last time. This person Kstockwell says she is a constituent. Never met her. She doesn’t like me, hard to believe but it happens! I have been working my ass off for the Republican Party for 15 years in Arizona. To thank me for my hard work I was a Trump delegate in 2016. I supported him absolutely. I do not worship him. He is a man with many faults. When this election came around I looked at the PRIMARY candidates and my first choice was Matt Salmon. I am not running back from that. He would have been an awesome Governor. He was the only candidate with a Conservative Record. He founded the Freedom Caucus and had a 100% Conservative scorecoard while in the House. When he stepped down he threw his support to KTR. I met with her and thought she would be a good Governor. When Kari Lake won I threw every ounce of my being behind her. Campaigned, raised money. The primary process is how we choose candidates. The job of a political party is to win elections. I will never apologize for who I choose to support during a primary. After the primary we all get behind the winning nominee.
And if you thought I am doing a bad job, Oh well. I have invited you to come see me, I even invited you out to lunch. You refuse would just rather call names. That’s ok. You have to have a thick skin in this profession.
I will not go back and forth here with you. My invitation stands. 1130 Hancock Rd. 928-758-0713.
There have been public people on this forum that remain public despite a screen name. LS, DL from the Desert and you are those I recall in AZ over the last 20+ years of my observations. They all get abused for that openness.
I remember when you were inspired by the FR activism and decided (as I recall on the advice of your Dad, also a poster here) to become active in local politics and make a difference. You saw it through. In small and large ways you have supported the various issues and helped Dr. Ward in her runs for higher office also helping this old guy to get a little active in the nine years I was in AZ and wasn’t dealing with work or cancer.
We often drive public figures away as there are a few people that love a public forum as a place to lambast others. I watched FrontPage Mag founder and leftist turned conservative icon, David Horowitz try to post and be involved here as “david horowitz” but he was hounded by a few idiots and finally gave up trying to participate. Mark Levin used to come by here as “holdonnow” but he was also ridiculed by similar holier-than-thou types.
You have never been anything but open and genuine in your participation on this forum and it was good of you to assist in having Mohave delay until this week elevating the failings of Maricopa. It was good of you to show that further delays simply disenfranchised Mohave County voters and could not be done in good faith with your office and then come on the forum to be open and forthright in sharing the details.
Immediately after the 2020 debacle you, like me, stated and posted that only the individual state legislatures could prevent the continuation of this process and you kept us informed of the old-boy-network that kept the problems from being resolved in Maricopa County. Third Party efforts, Trump nomination efforts, law suit efforts and all the other stupid stuff in 2020 was useless if we did not gain the legislative control and we didn’t.
From those of us around for twenty years that know all the history. We know that you have been totally true to the FR Home page purposes. THANK YOU.
