Trump Rejects Brnovich As Senate Pick, Endorsement Expected Soon

On Monday, former President Trump blasted Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich, leaving Arizona Republicans wondering just which GOP Senate candidate would finally win his coveted endorsement.

Trump alleged that Brnovich had received “massive information on the fraud and so-called ‘irregularities’” surrounding the 2020 election but “seems to be doing nothing about it.”

Referring to a recent report from the Attorney General, Trump said that Brnovich “recites some of the many horrible things that happened in that very dark period of American history but, rather than go after the people that committed these election crimes, it looks like he is just going to ‘kick the can down the road’ and stay in that middle path of non-controversy.”

In that report, Brnovich’s staff found that Maricopa County’s 2020 election results had “serious vulnerabilities,” leaving Arizonans with more questions than answers.

In his statement, Trump said, “The good news is Arizona has some very good people running for election to the U.S. Senate. I will be making an Endorsement in the not too distant future!”

Now, even money is on Blake Masters securing the coveted Trump endorsement in Arizona’s GOP Senate race. Masters, like JD Vance, who just won Trump’s endorsement for his run for a Senate seat out of Ohio, is backed by his former employer, Peter Thiel.

The other candidate who could get the endorsement is executive Jim Lamon, whose messaging resembles Trump’s, and whose campaign is now leading in some polls. Some members of Trump’s inner-circle like former Arizona Treasurer and Trump Campaign CFO Jeff DeWit are Lamon supporters and have been encouraging the President to support him.
