Neil D, you're correct. I forgot, last year Arizona installed a Democratic governor elected in 2022. She got in on a very thin margin also, if I recall the commentary correctly. Brewer was so awful when she was in she left a big imprint as far as general state politics. She and Ducey seem to have supported the Sheriff (Joe Arpaio) who behaved so badly that he had an over-large position in Arizona politics. McSally (R) was appointed to fill the end of McCain's term, then Kelly beat her (there was some great editorial cartooning comparing the two - McSally in her fighter jet and Kelly in the much larger Space Shuttle passing over the top of her.) Looking at the state history they do go back and forth between the parties with reliable regularity.

Bill, you're correct. That trainwreck of the "news conference" by Trump didn't need to be dignified with full coverage.
