Arizona continues to be a big swing state in presidential elections With Ron DeSantis visiting the border
Howie Fisher: “The fact that Donald Trump lost by 10,000 votes last time shows how important this is. For another, we have a piece of the border here, and if you don’t get a chance to take a picture at the border, you’re not a candidate for president.”
Will borders become a big problem?
Jeremy Duda: “Borders will always be an issue, especially here in Arizona, especially in the Republican primary. And because it matters to primary voters everywhere, perhaps Donald Trump’s leading candidate, Ron DeSantis, is here.All presidential candidates, especially the Republican side, do the same. Since the election, borders have probably been the biggest issue for the Republican Party, God knows. Words. DeSantis does its best to prove it by sending people to different blue states and blue cities. ”
