For the first time in decades, Arizona elected a Democratic president in November and sent two Democrats to the U.S. Senate. One would think this loss would cause some sort of introspection among members of the Arizona Republican Party. But instead, the state GOP seems bent on wallowing in its own lack of self-awareness.

In an extraordinary move this weekend, the Arizona GOP voted to censure Republican Gov. Doug Ducey, former Sen. Jeff Flake, and Cindy McCain — Ducey, for implementing “dictatorial” coronavirus restrictions, and McCain and Flake for endorsing Biden and his “leftist causes.” The censures are largely ceremonial, but they prove the Arizona GOP is more interested in licking Trump’s boots than it is in winning elections.
