Trump Wants Kari Lake to Run Against Kyrsten Sinema
He even called Blake Masters to tell him not to primary Lake
Hey, remember the 2022 midterms and all the endorsements that Trump made? Yeah, that didn’t work out so well for him, did it? Sure, most of them won their primaries but when it came to the general election, well, that was another story.
Trump isn’t making nearly as many endorsements for the 2024 elections. But you kinda got to question some of his choices.
Let’s take Arizona, for example. In 2022, he endorsed Kari Lake for governor, Mark Finchem for secretary of state, Abe Hamadeh for attorney general, and Blake Masters for senator. All won their primaries but lost in the general election.
Actually, Trump’s bad track record in Arizona dates back to 2018 when he endorsed Martha McSally in her Senate race against Kyrsten Sinema. She lost. He endorsed McSally again in 2020 when she ran against Mark Kelly for Senate and lost.
You would think that Trump would quietly walk away from endorsing anyone in Arizona again, but, no, this is Trump, and he has a little VP problem.
Seems there is a lot of competition to be his VP. I don’t know why. He tried to have the last one killed.
