‘Political correctness is like a cancer’: Arizona Republican defends controversial social media posts
One of the Republicans running for Senate in Arizona spent time on the last day before the primary election to parse through whether or not she meant to offend people in her recent social media posts, one of which included a suggestion there was a narrative at play when Sen. John McCain announced he was stopping his cancer treatment.
Kelli Ward, one of the three candidates looking to fill Sen. Jeff Flake’s seat, had a long history of being critical of Sen. John McCain before he passed away on Saturday, and now she’s caught up in a battle of semantics about her comments about the late senator in the two days following his death.
