McSally’s Trump-like defensiveness reveals her inability to cope with his presence at the top of the ticket
The Trump pressure is clearly mounting in Arizona…and Congresswoman McSally is not handling it well. Look no further than the latest Tucson Weekly article, which features McSally’s staggeringly obtuse response to Trump’s dangerous candidacy. Refusing to answer questions is no way to handle a problem, and Arizonans deserve better.
“Congresswoman Martha McSally’s lack of moral courage when it comes to Trump is becoming a spectacle,” said DCCC Spokesman Tyler Law. “Her refusal to be honest with the voters is offensive to all hardworking Arizonans who believe that the process of selecting a president deserves serious thought, not Martha McSally’s familiar brand of political double-speak.”

Martha McSally Is Not Endorsing Donald Trump, So You Can Stop Asking About It
Tucson Weekly
Congresswoman Martha McSally has told The Range she won’t be endorsing Donald Trump in this year’s presidential race, although she might vote for him.
“I have never endorsed a politician in my life and I’m not going to start now, so you can ask me for the next three and a half months, but it’s not happening,” McSally said on Friday, July 22. “Who we each vote for is our responsibility as a citizen and a voter and, in that role, have a vote just like you have a vote and I personally believe that is between me, God and the ballot box.”
After Trump clinched the nomination, McSally said via a prepared statement that she would spend time between now and Election Day evaluating Trump’s character to determine if she could support him.
Asked if there were specific policy areas where she agreed with Trump, McSally said she hadn’t been paying much attention to his campaign.
