      That’s only the half of it. He got into politics as a gun control advocate after his wife, a house representative, was fucking shot in the head at a political out reach event! He somehow won his senate seat in gun loving AZ! It’s wild.

        He’s got a bit of an uncomfortable stance on Gaza is the only issue. If he could take a harsher stance on Israel he would be the perfect pick, but as is he might be a bit risky depending on how much actual impact that issue will have on the election.
