AZ-SEN 2022 Megathread: Mastering the Art of the Thiel

[Huey Long is a Republican]

With another Thiel-backed populist who was in third prior to a Trump endorsement winning his race, I think it's a given Trump will endorse Masters now.

I think Trump probably waits to see how Pennsylvania, Georgia, and North Carolina play out before endorsing here, but yeah today was a big win for his endorsement game.

Walker and Budd are locks. Perdue is almost certainly not even making the runoff. Pennsylvania is a tossup.

Yeah, the only race that he should focus on now is Pennsylvania. Do a rally or two for & with Oz leading up to the Primary. McCrory committed political suicide with his ad against Budd and Walker is a juggernaut in the primary. If Oz wins, then he endorses Masters in the weeks leading up to August 2nd, likely Mid-Late July.

According to an article I read (and usually Trumpworld sources are pretty reliable), Trump was waiting to see how Ohio went down before committing to going all-in on campaigning for his Senate picks. Now that he won, Trump feels more confident in placing his reputation on the line to campaign more for them.

I still do think he waits to see if Oz wins before moving in on Oklahoma, Missouri, and Arizona. Oz is his biggest test

I hope he endorses in Oklahoma soon, but I hope he doesn't just endorse frontrunner Mullin just because he voted to overturn, he's a RINO on most issues and someone like Gray, Dahm or even Shannon would be better (basically any other candidate apart from Holland).

Hoping for Greitens or Hartzler in MO, Lahmayer in OK-Regular, Dahm in OK-SPEC, and Masters in AZ.

I would prefer Greitens to Hartzler but either are good. I also think that Gray may be better than Dahm because of his great endorsements from people like Gosar. I agree with you on the rest, but I don't think Lahmeyer has a chance to win sadly, Boozman is more likely to lose his primary than Lankford.

Your probably right on Lahmayer but we won't know until Trump makes his endorsements. If Oz wins, he probably goes "I can endorse whoever I want!" and endorses the candidates I previously mentioned, though he probably stays out of Colorado, New Hampshire, and Washington like how he stayed out of New Jersey and Virginia. Trump is seemingly becoming more strategic with his endorsements, making endorsements in toss-ups and red seats and staying out of Blue seats with only one or two appearances for those seats in the general.

But I was told Kelly was completely DOA and that he'd be lucky to lose as badly as Doug Jones.

What do you think about Greitens’s…ethics issues?

Irrelevant. I care about policy.

$100 just sent to Kelly.

[Respect and Compassion]

Blake Masters is not someone I'd underestimate so in a sense I can understand why you just sent $100. AZ was too close in 2020 though, and nothing about Masters suggests to me that he has less appeal to the AZ electorate than Trump. He's a stronger candidate than McSally, that's for sure, and Kelly can be painted as more partisan than he presented himself to be, unfortunately.

$100 just sent to Kelly.

Kelly’s going to be sitting on a truckload of cash.

If you want to stop the nut jobs, please donate to:

- Adrian Fontes for Secretary of State, who likely will be up against election denier / Oath Keeper Mark Finchem
- Jeanne Casteen and Christine Marsh for state senate, who are in the closest new leg districts in the Phoenix area
- Kris Mayes for AG, who will face one of six lunatics (their GOP primarydebate just happened last night and they all denied the validity of Joe Biden’s election…)

These people will actually be able to use your funds.

Masters is awful, though he shouldn't be underestimated. I don't think he or Brnovich would do substantially different against Kelly, and AZ remains the Democratic-held seat most likely to flip, in my opinion, and is Lean R. I don't really buy that Kelly is that much "stronger" of a candidate than Masto, and in fact I think there's an argument to be made that Masto could end up being slightly "stronger."

[Shaula🏳️‍⚧️]

Whatever your thoughts on his politics, Masters would certainly be one of the smartest Senators in the country if elected.

[Senator Incitatus]

Not sure this means anything.

If Republicans had run a normal Republican, they prolly could’ve had this in the bag, but Masters is certainly not the best fit. Will it matter in the end? We’ll see. But still

[Unelectable Bystander]

Could he not refrain from spending half the letter talking about voter fraud? It’s also irresponsible talking about Brnovich like that, now a few people may completely refuse to show up for him if he wins

[Ferguson97]

Could he not refrain from spending half the letter talking about voter fraud?

No, he literally cannot help himself.

[Bernie Derangement Syndrome Haver]

Congratulations Senator Masters. I wonder what his relationship with Sinema will be like.

[Chips]

It's a toss-up. Gun to my head, Masters wins against Kelly in the general by under a point but Kelly can easily win as well and I think this is the most likely of the NV/AZ/GA trio to stay.

[Politician]

I actually think Masters would be a better GE candidate than Brnovich or Lamon, but please for the love of God, can Trump stop with the "stolen election" crap.
