Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s PAC has pulled $ million of its ad dollars out of Arizona, leaving Blake Masters to fend for himself ahead of the November election.
The Senate Leadership Fund, McConnell’s powerful PAC, will pull $8 million out of Arizona, underscoring the anti-establishment nature of Trump-endorsed Masters’s insurgent campaign against Democrat incumbent U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly.
The news, broken by Politico, comes amid an ongoing feud between McConnell and 45th President Donald Trump, who heavily supported Masters during the primary. Polls currently show Masters behind Kelly, and the incumbent Democrat has raised $40 million compared to Masters’ $18 million.
Kelly has benefited from the Democratic machine in Arizona while serving the remainder of John McCain’s term in office, and is made more popular by his previous career as an astronaut, though his complete adherence to Joe Biden’s agenda combined with an energized electorate has some pundits convinced Masters campaign will still be victorious.
The powerful Senate Republican’s PAC, The Senate Leadership Fund, “is one way McConnell has been able to maintain his position as GOP Senate leader for so long,” reported PJ Media. “His PAC has handed out tens of millions of dollars to Republican candidates, which is a lot of incentive to support him,” https://valiantnews.com/2022/08/mitch-mcconnells-pac-pulls-support-from-blake-masters-amid-trump-feud/

How fast can Trump put together a PAC and make up the lack of funds?
Remember, Mark Kelly is the husband of that gungrabber Gabby Giffords.
Fukkin’ Mitch…

McConnell and his Chinese spy wife both need to be doing the hemp jig in haul up, not a sudden drop with a quarter turn to the right, mode.
The only good thing McConnell has done in his entire 40+ years in DC is prevent Merrick Garland’s SJC nomination from proceeding by invoking the Biden Rule. Demonrats hate it when you jam their own rules right up their collective asses.
Garland is now implementing his revenge for that, the effing little turd. Can you imagine what he’d be doing if he’d been confirmed?

Well, for one thing NYSRPA v Bruen would have gone the other way.
Instead we have (Democrat) state and local governments busting their asses to make it irrelevant.
