ICYMI: During AZSen Debate, Blake Masters Doubled Down on Offensive Military Rhetoric

PHOENIX — During Thursday night’s U.S. Senate debate, Blake Masters — a man who has never served this country — doubled down on his previous attacks on American military servicemembers and veterans, saying there is “rot” in our military.

Masters on the military: “Yeah, it’s a rot.”

Over the last year, Masters has repeatedly disrespected our military leadership, calling them “totally incompetent,” “piss poor,” and “embarrassing.” In response, Arizona veterans have called Masters’ rhetoric “disgraceful” and “disqualifying,” encouraging Arizona’s half a million veterans to oppose his candidacy.
