The Angry Blob That Wouldn’t Die.
U.S. Senate candidate Kelli Ward’s campaign manager twice asked her Republican primary rival Joe Arpaio to get out of the race, saying he could set up a paid speaking gig for the former sheriff with a group that supports President Donald Trump’s agenda, Arpaio and his campaign said Tuesday.
A spokesman for Ward’s campaign denied the assertion, telling The Arizona Republic “no such offer was made.”

Ward is a Trumpet of the first water and either as senator would be a disaster, but at least she seems better prepared for the job. At a news conference on Tuesday:
Asked to say how the tariffs threatened by Mr. Trump would affect Arizona residents, Arpaio said only that he wants products to be made in the United States and doesn’t believe the approach to tariffs would hurt the state.
He also was asked whether he knew what a tariff was.
“I know what tariffs are, but I’m not here to do a history — to educate you on what a tariff is,” Arpaio said.
Similarly, he declined to say whether the Iran nuclear deal would make the United States safer.
“I don’t have all the foreign information,” Arpaio said. “You expect me to know everything. I am not in the Senate yet.”
