Trump’s Awful Endorsement in AZ Sparks Conservative Outcry
As if his bad cabinet picks were not enough to raise conservative voters’ concerns, President Trump has dropped another bomb on his base. On Sunday, Trump announced his endorsement of Karrin Taylor Robson for Arizona Governor in 2026. Robson is a widely disliked figure seen as a Republican in Name Only (RINO) who is loyal to the anti-America deep state.
Karrin Taylor Robson ran in the Republican primaries for AZ Governor in 2022 against Trump-endorsed MAGA candidate Kari Lake. She was supported by Mike Pence and Doug Ducey, two Republicans seen and disliked by the MAGA base as traitors and turncoats. When Trump announced running for reelection in November 2022, Robson went on Fox News to call Donald Trump “a drag on the Republican Party.”
Robson also raised money for anti-American and pro-open borders Democrat Ruben Gallego and held a fundraiser for Chris Christie who ran against Trump in the primaries for 2024.
With her awful record of pro-establishment and anti-MAGA views and efforts, Robson receiving Trump’s endorsement came nothing less of a shocker to Trump’s supporters. Conservative commentator Laura Loomer, who has worked tirelessly for boosting the 2024 Trump campaign and rarely if ever disagrees with Trump, took to Twitter (X) to question Trump’s endorsement, as reported in Raw Story and other media.
In her X post, Loomer questioned Trump directly: “Respectfully, who is doing the vetting for you?” She posted Gallego’s X post from 2022 wherein he credited Robson as one of his biggest bundlers (fundraisers).

The Gateway Pundit, labeled as a “far-right” news site, also questioned Trump’s endorsement while calling Robson “Outspoken Never-Trump RINO” who has supported lower tuition fees in Arizona schools for illegal aliens. The story wrote:
The Gateway Pundit has reported extensively on Robson’s anti-American liberal record, including her support for discounted college tuition rates for illegal immigrants and eliminating Second Amendment rights on campus, COVID lockdowns and mandates, and transgender restrooms.
Hundreds of comments dropped on The Gateway Pundit story expressing disappointment and questioning Trump’s endorsement of Robson. On Sunday, conservative representative of the AZ State House Jacqueline Parker responded to Trump’s endorsement of Robson by posting on X that Trump needs to keep himself out of statewide races because his endorsements have messed up things for conservatives in Arizona in the past.
The latest disappointment among MAGA supporters over the endorsement of Robson follows a number of other choices made by Trump recently in preparation for his upcoming presidential term. Last month, his nomination of vaccine pusher and pro-censorship figure Dr. Janette Nesheiwat for the Surgeon General’s office evoked a widespread outcry among conservatives, only to be ignored by Trump.
Last week, NBC reported that Trump is having second thoughts about firing the woke Joint Chiefs Chairman Charles Q. Brown Jr. appointed by Joe Biden in 2023 and opposed by many prominent conservatives including some Senators like JD Vance – the current VP-elect – who voted against his confirmation. The news came as a disappointment to MAGA voters and raised questions about Trump’s seriousness to drain the swamp.
Could it be that Trump is listening to a RINO infiltrator or is already slipping to the left?
My first indication of this was his wanting to raise the debt ceiling. That’s a non-starter!!!
Just remember he has to go through center before he gets to left. Problem with the right is that it is so far right that center looks left.
Trump being questioned by MAGA conservatives is the beginning in their realization that has clay feet.
It’s really rich when disagreement is voiced on X Musk’s media tabloid.
All Trump’s appointments are just suggestions at this point and need Senate approval.
In this case Robson is intending on running for Arizona Governor in 2026 and an endorsement by Trump at this early date has not much weight. Although, he has stirred up MAGA’s bees nest even before he’s sworn in next month.
MAGA’s belief that they have power because they support Trump may be developing a few cracks and fissures.
We shall see as Trump 2.0 begins. Consecutive’s opinion is that Trump already is the President and Biden has all but abdicated, which is far from the truth. Biden’s actions as President are ongoing. The Press is not reporting on the White House because Trump’s shenanigans are capitalizing the media and the strange curiosity of media consumers.
The Robson story, if true, just shows Trump’s opinions are contrary to conservatives’ likings than they thought.
Hang on tight the next four years are going to be filled with twists and turns on the road this president takes. Scary! You bet! But this is what the majority voted for and the start of its consequences.
We must remember that when the word majority is used in connection with Trump, that neither Trump nor Harris got a majority of the voters. Both were under 50%, and it is unfortunate that 13% of Dems did not get out and vote. If they had voted we would not be dealing with Trump today.
Trump disappointing MAGA is not a bad thing to most Independents.
Trump can’t please everyone all the time. Just like anyone. He isn’t like the Dumbacraps that only please themselves.
Yes, right Stephen, Trump always pleases others before himself. That’s rich all right. As rich as your blatantly false generalizations about democrats where the only crap is you.
Hey asshole!!! Show some respect for president trump.
Just remember, Trump still received 4 million votes less than Biden did in 2020
Bullshit!
This was what happens when there was election interference from the FBI.
So WHO can be trusted!
I think trump is taking it one step at a time as he should in his picks!
Your reply is what we think of you danger man. Why are you dangerous? You want to kill us off? Hmmm. Maybe! So, that’s why you are the Danger man! You put that out there all by yourself. Man, what a glorious shock you have coming very, very soon and the sooner the better! Tom, too!
Why does Joe enable accusations of murder and not-so-veiled violent threats?
The Donald has often been careless/sloppy about endorsements (perhaps because of incompetent staffers). A huge error was to endorse a Muslim for Senator in Pennsylvania, a state winnable by Republicans only when the big Christian GOP voter territory between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh is energized.
