Arizona Kamala Harris rally speakers court 'John McCain Republicans' support
Fox News ^ | 8/9/24 | Charles Creitz

Posted on 08/10/2024 3:47:47 AM PDT by cotton1706

With Arizona front and center in the 2024 election, introductory speakers at Vice President Harris’ rally in Glendale made overtures to moderate Republicans by invoking one of the GOP’s past presidential nominees.

Rep. Gregory Stanton, D-Ariz., who represents the eastern Phoenix suburbs, called on "John McCain Republicans" to support the Harris-Walz ticket, portraying it as the moderate option.

Mesa Republican Mayor John Giles echoed those comments, saying that as a lifelong member of the GOP, he does not recognize his party.

"It has been taken over by extremists," Giles said, adding it also has forced "people from the [political] center" out of the party.

"You don’t owe a damn thing to that political party," Giles added, saying it would be "displaced loyalty" to support Donald Trump.

"In the spirit of the great Sen. John McCain, please join me in putting country over party and stopping Donald Trump and protecting the rule of law, protecting our constitution and protecting the democracy of our great country."

Remember being told to hold your nose and vote for John McCain (and Mitt Romney, and Bob Dole and the Bushes).

That only went one way of course.

"John McCain Republicans" are Democrats, and always were.

McCain was never a republican. He was an opportunist Dem who knew he’d never win in AZ. The whole Maverick thing was a just a schtick.

You’re correct.

McCain pretended to be conservative to succeed Barry Goldwater, and then he held that seat literally until his death.

McCain was the worst sort of scum who married into a crime family. Arizona is better off with him dead.

John McCain was much worse than a democrat. He was a petty vindictive self serving evil man who opposed funding for US servicemen repeatedly during his time in the Senate.

MCain delighted in his last coup, saying he would vote to end OCare and at the last moment with a gleam of triumph in his eyes he treasonously voted against the act.

The continuation of OCare curtailed the creation of a better plan, caused vast sums to be wasted propping up OCare, and that spending reduced Trump’s tax cutting ability. McCain was only interested in spiting Trump with no concern about the continued harm to America from his action.

Tyrannical communism with forced pedophilia on top is now "moderate"?

Good laugh to start the day. John McCain republicans were always going to favor the democrats.

As for Mayor Giles not recognizing his party anymore, the go along to get along Republicans let the Left run rough shod over them for years. There was no compromise or middle ground. It was capitulation. And look where it has brought us.

Go ahead Mayor Giles vote for the party that stands 180 degrees to port of what you ostensibly believe in. The last 4 years will seem great compared to what the Left wants to take us.
