The very fact that this article exists means that trouble is brewing for Boozman.

Trump endorsed Boozman too early in my opinion.

Even if Boozman wins his primary, but it is a tight race, that will send alarm through Washington.

Remember that in 2014, both Lamar Alexander and Pat Roberts had unexpected difficulty in their primaries, and they both decided to retire in 2020.

But Boozman will be 78 in 2028, so this will likely be his final term anyway.

But still, think of the optics, Trump's endorsement might save an Establishment republican. Think how conversations will go in Washington if that happens, just when they're trying to WEAKEN his influence.

I'd love it if Jake Bequette pulls off an upset.

Primary is May 24th.

Any politician who did nothing to permit the 2020 stolen election needs to go. I include Rand Paul in that as well.

There are seven candidates as per The Green Pages

Candidate list (7) Democratic
former Pine Bluff Council Member Jack Edward Foster, • FEC S2AR00123
Natalie James, • FEC S2AR00115; 30 Sep 21; Tot $21,833; Dsb $14,955
Daniel Allen “Dan” Whitfield, • FEC S0AR00218; 31 Dec 21; Tot $11,364; Dsb $30,376

Republican
Jake Bequette, • FEC S2AR00107; 31 Dec 21; Tot $810,004; Dsb $398,291
Senator John Nichols Boozman, • FEC S0AR00150; 31 Dec 21; Tot $3,445,674; Dsb $836,199
Heath Loftis, • FEC S2AR00073; 31 Dec 21; Tot $10,423; Dsb $10,063
Jan Morgan, • FEC S2AR00081; 31 Dec 21; Tot $338,277; Dsb $278,348

Boozman’s $2.6 million in the bank dwarfs Jake Bequette’s $400 K. Fundraising for incumbents will ramp up as necessary.

Not sure why the dems are even challenging if all they can raise $20,000. (Note Dan Whitfield has spent more than he raised.)

He started significant ad buys (radio, tv, internet) just about a week ago.
Makes a point of how dedicated he is to Trump policies.

GO JAKE... GO PATRIOTS!!

ALL the Bush League Republicans need to be replaced.

Boozman is another Burr. A retirement in waiting establishment stooge in the making. I can’t recall a single time Boozman’s name was mentioned regarding something significant the entire time Trump was POTUS. Trump has a bad habit of endorsing candidates he thinks will win regardless of their MAGA credentials.

Jake Bequette hasn't been involved in any of the political fights since he returned from military service 2 years ago. #Arkansas has had COVID mandate issues, a communist China puppet for Governor in Asa Hutchinson, failure to ban special election tax increases, another failure by the GOP supermajority to stop CRT, and other issues.

Bequette didn't defend the Jan 6th victims of the democrat false flag operation, Jan Morgan was there and has talked about it several times.
