Uh, Patricia, did you actually read the article?  It said right in it.

Pat, A lot is said in print each day. 

I have difficulty understanding the fine line crossing of a candidate who implies basically that she is great buds with the President while speechifying at events and a candidate whose campaign has been all about America First Agenda and supporting our President using a photo in a campaign. Now just because a thing is said there is much to consider around the said thing. That is where I remain.

Pat J,

the article is a hit piece.  First, consider the source, The Arizona Republic.  Second, article mentions that McSally is using sound bites of the President "praising her as  'the real deal' and 'tough' ;" yet, no suggestion is made that she is misleading voters. 

Finally, the article uses the same tactic that is used by the media against the President with regularity:  an unnamed White House official who purportedly said the President consented to the photo op but "specifically asked that it not be shared."  Yet, the same official " is not authorized to speak publicly about it."  So why is the official speaking publicly about it to The Arizona Republic?

Later, the article states that "the White House’s press office did not respond to a request for comment."  If the use of a photo op by Ward were such a big deal and she breached a promise to the President not to use the photo, why was she not reprimanded by the press office when pushed for a comment by the Republic?

This whole deal is a nothing burger.  So too the call for Arpaio to drop out--as well he should.

The real issue is whether the press--baying at the White House door like a pack of rabid hounds--the democrats, Mueller, and many members of the GOP can force a duly elected President from office.  Should the House present the Senate with articles of impeachment, how many GOP senators would vote to convict?  McConnell, Graham, McSally--if elected--who is McConnell's girl, would they vote nay?  I doubt it.

The other real issue is the incessant spending by a GOP controlled House and Senate.  It threatens to bring this  nation to an economic implosion as we reach Greece like levels of debt to GDP.

Yet, so many here prattle on about the constitution, the UN and the federal reserve; about a photo op and call for Arpaio to exit the race.  If the President is forced from office and spending is not halted, all is lost.  Trump is not the issue:  the movement he represents is and if he goes down, so too does the movement.  It is vital that Ward defeat McSally in the primary.  The window for the movement is very narrow.

I'm just guessing here, but it may well be that Trump is not backing Ward publicly only because of his loyalty to Sheriff Joe resulting from Joe's very strong support in the presidential primary campaign.  The fact that Trump is not vigorously campaigning for Joe is very telling.  Who does he really want to be our next Senator?

Mike, I suspect that a backing of a candidate in primary contested race we have 3 republicans running is just a difficult thing to do. Pictures I have seen  shows McSally at mtg in the WH setting next to Mitch McConnell who is setting next to POTUS. Can't remember if Paul Ryan was also at the mtg. That photo would have value to McSally.

What is also in consideration for me is why taking McFlake to the meeting so important to Mitch McConnell?

I just can't get perturbed at the Ward campaign for using a photo of picture with the President.

One can ask for a thing doesn't mean you get what you want.

It is quite different for a candidate to be seated and photoed beside our President at a WH meeting than a photo op at a campaign event. I think if President Trump said to me, sure you can have a photo but please don't use it as part of your campaign, and I said, No, I won't, then I did, that is a crisis of character.  You minimize it down as just a photo but I see it as a matter of integrity.  Promise made, got what I want, promise broken. You would never overlook this same action if it was a democrat getting a photo op with Hillary or Bernie with the same request not to use it.  I see the leftist behavior is seeping into our behavior, just what all the protests are about. Break down society, lies become ok, broken promises mean nothing.  A slippery slope some on the post are willing to take.

A reporter at the Arizona Republic claimed an anonymous source who said that our President Trump asked Ward not to use a photo. For heaven's sake, get a grip.

Yes good advice "For heaven's sake, get a grip."

A self proclaimed reporter who knew someone who had a friend who heard a conversation between two people at Costco said that President Trump asked Ward not to use the photo.  

Best laugh all YEAR! Thank you so much.

Hey, Larry.  I am that friend who heard that.  Then he said Trump told Sinema that he would pose with her if she didn't use the photo in her campaign.  I guess it worked that time because i have seen all of Sinema's ads and not once is Trump in any of them. Ha ha ha I guess he just needed to ask the right person. :-)  ;-)    0;/   /;0

Larry, I think your post is a message to take to heart e.g. don't allow one's underwear to get in a twist over this photo issue.
