After staying out of primary, Trump endorses Martha McSally for Senate in Arizona
The Washington Times ^ | August 29, 2018 | S.A. Miller & Gabriella Muñoz

President Trump on Wednesday threw his support behind GOP Rep. Martha McSally’s run for Senate in Arizona.

Mr. Trump stayed on the sidelines during the hard-fought Republican primary in which Ms. McSally on Tuesday bested two opponents who were closely allied with the president.

“Martha McSally is an extraordinary woman. She was a very talented fighter jet pilot and is now a highly respected member of Congress. She is Strong on Crime, the Border and our under siege 2nd Amendment. Loves our Military and our Vets. Has my total and complete Endorsement!” Mr. Trump tweeted.

I agree. My only concern is that Flake endorsed her. And Flake is a raving leftie who has the nerve to claim to be a conservative.

She was military, she’ll fall in line behind her commander in chief for the good of Arizona and America.

Did anyone think that Trump was going to endorse the Democrat? Trump must have the Senate, regardless of what happens in the House. If he has both, that will mean that America has rejected the Democrat message. McSally will notice, and will be happy to join the bandwagon. Most politicians are just like McSally, they float along the prevailing winds. What they really care about is their own fortunes, both political and monetary.

On another thread they are trumpeting that McSally was his endorsed candidate. Which is it?

She will be better than Flake and McCain. Sure, that’s a low bar, but we are looking for improvement across the board.

I’d be surprised if McCain could reach his rating if his numbers were inverted. He’s a case in point why I don’t pay any attention whatsoever to those numbers.

I’ve seen some ratings for him that were over 90% with regard to Conservatism.

I’d give him about a 10%.

“She ultimately sued then-Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld over the requirement, noting that male service members were not required to wear the formal dress of their host country in the same circumstances — and secured a change in policy.

During her time in the House, the two-term Congress member has continued to champion gender equality, establishing a working group to examine disparities in the workplace around pay and confronting the House’s stringent dress code.”

She has a history of dwelling on “women’s issues”. Just another RINO from AZ.
