Just proves Trump's toxicity. Hopefully, this is the nail in his coffin.

John McCain (war mongering psycho and philanderer) deserves to be insulted and attacked…and a decent GOP that wanted to reform itself would try to cast out his ideological ilk.
Lots of innocent 3rd world people died so that he could play empire and make his friends in the MIC lots of money.
I would not want to be him on judgment day…truly.

Your (or my) opinion on John McCain isn't relevant. I made the simple point: how did you really expect that to play in Arizona?

That's fine if you don't like McCain, but that wasn't my point. My point was only, how did anyone think that would go well in Arizona?
She may have told the truth about McCain, but parroting the stolen election bull**** was dishonest, and bending her knee to Trump contributed to her loss. And let's be honest, as for McCain's cheating, Trump has no room to talk there, and Lake didn't apparently seem to have a problem with that.Redbrickbear said:MT_Bear said:Redbrickbear said:MT_Bear said:

Good for Lake for telling the truth…even if it hurts her politically.
And honesty would say the same thing for anyone who calls Trump a philanderer and shameless showman.
We need more people in the GOP not afraid to tell the truth.
McCain might have done some good for the pocket book of big business in Arizona. But he was not a good human.
[responsible for cheering on conflict in countless countries Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Palestine and many more. This "very decent" man declared the right to invade any country, overthrow any government that got in his way or the way of the American ruling class.]
https://www.stuff.co.nz/world/americas/8736690/McCain-knows-the-good-guys
https://foreignpolicy.com/2018/08/28/john-mccains-militarized-foreign-policy-was-mistake/
[in his last few decades in the Senate, he turned into one of its most ferocious advocates of military intervention, almost irrespective of circumstance. McCain favored aggressive war against Serbia, an endless crusade to bring democracy to Afghanistan, the disastrous invasion of Iraq, the equally counterproductive destruction of Libya, a combat role in Syria's horrific civil war, and military aid for Saudi Arabia in its brutal aggression against Yemen. He recklessly promoted Georgia against Russia in those two countries' short-lived war, advocated striking North Korea militarily, and sang about bombing Iran in a little ditty set to the Beach Boys' "Barbara Ann." He proposed creating a no-fly zone in Sudan and intervening in Nigeria against the Islamist terrorist group Boko Haram. Last year, he urged the Trump administration to "choose the Kurds" over Iran and Iraq, since for decades the United States "has protected them from attacks, both from within and outside Iraq." Ukraine was a disappointment, causing him to lament: "I do not see a military option, and that is tragic."
In other words, he tended to treat war as just another policy option, an answer to any number of problems, from the mundane to the monstrous, even when U.S. security was not seriously threatened.]
Yup, especially the first part.Canada2017 said:MT_Bear said:Redbrickbear said:MT_Bear said:

Suspect the bigger issues were Lake's enthusiastic association with Trump , her pro life stance and the impact of all the transplanted Dem voters from California.

Yes, disappointing.
Kari Lake deserves criticism where it's due but Katie Hobbs is a bumbling fool who was too scared to even debate Kari Lake
Katie Hobbs entire campaign consisted of calling Kari Lake an election denier...and that was about it.
Have fun Arizona!

You are correct .
A majority of Americans believe abortions is a legitimate choice.
Especially here in Colorado where abortions for any or no reason are legal
Abortions even up to the moment of birth.
We are a sophisticated people….noble in fact .
Next something will have to be done with all these old people .
They shouldn't be allowed to be a financial burden to the state.
No pain …no gain .
masters did almost as well as McSally with 1/7 of the budget. He was left out to dry by the national GOP. He could have won with help. They didnt want him to win.Redbrickbear said:

8 GOP primaries where DNC backed Trump candidates - 8 lost the general.
Zeldin avoided the “2020” bullshit and he pulls up NY seats to Congress.
OC CA stayed Red (TBD).
DeSantis remade Florida.
Texas stayed solid red.
Kemp won big.
Reality check.
It reminds me of a picture I saw once of a Hamas guy standing on a pile of rubble celebrating his "victory" over Israel.Doc Holliday said:

We can dump Trump...but we absolutely CAN"T go back to neocons.
Trump's ego, arrogance, and stupidity continually astound me. It always has been just about him, which is the core problem. Someone with decent political instincts would have focused on Trump's unprecedented success as president and pointed to that, but the 2020 election has consumed him to the point of mental illness. Rather than candidate's endorsing Trump's record the 2020 election became a stupid litmus test. Regardless of what one thinks about it, it is done. No one is going to reverse it. It was time to move on Dec. 1, 2020, but he cannot let it go, and good candidates were sucked into the stupidity.OsoCoreyell said:
Trump's failure is manifest. By Trump's own standard, he's a loser. Trump has cost the Republicans the Senate TWICE in the last 24 months. Time to move on.

Remember Rachel Mitchell? She was the Republican lawyer who questioned Christine Blasely Ford during the Kavanaugh hearings.

☑️ GOP beat Dems in House races by 6%

☑️ GOP take 16/28 State Senate seats
☑️ Yee (Treasurer) outperforms Lake by 5%, Masters by 9%
☑️ Hobbs (D) takes Governor, Kelly (D) takes Senator
MAKE IT MAKE SENSE.
