Richard Grenell removes his endorsement over Jim lamon for Arizona elections

Jim Lamon called former president Donald Trump’s endorsement of Blake Masters a mistake and thought that Arizonans will elect someone whose competition is a wholly-owned subsidiary of a Big Tech, California billionaire. A week before, Lamon released an ad tagging Blake Masters, the “puppet of California Big Tech.” So in return, Grenell, who has been Trump’s acting director of national intelligence, immediately contacted Lamon’s campaign to express his disappointment, and here the campaign denied it. After which, Grenell let slip that injustice to him on Wednesday. By foretelling Lamon’s campaign as “desperate.” And also incriminating him of eroding the conservative movement with his strategies.

Grenell calls Lamon’s campaign ‘desperate’

After such actions by Jim Lamon, Grenell also took it to Twitter by Posting a lengthy tweet, “Growing our conservative movement should be the top priority of every Republican candidate and Jim Lamon understood that when he first got in the U.S. Senate race. Sadly, something has changed, and he has instead pursued a desperate campaign of attacking courageous conservatives. The tactics Jim Lamon is now using in his race are wrong, and I can no longer support him. Attacking my friend Peter Theil is a lousy strategy that will only, help elect democrats. I will no longer support him. Peter has been a champion of conservative values in Silicon Valley and has never wavered from challenging the Big Techs. I have made precise multiple times that the Jeff Roe strategy of attacking Peter, may be profitable for Jeff’s firm now. Still, it is a losing strategy for our conservative movement.”

Thiel has donated to Republican candidates across the country. Mainly in Ohio, where he has invested $13.5 million to assist Trump’s favored Senate candidate, J.D. Vance. Previously Thiel had also donated more than $66,000 in September 2017. He has also handed $1 million to make America Number 1; Thiel also disbursed $250,000 to ‘Trump Victory,’ a joint fundraising committee, and more than $230,000 to the Republican National Committee (RNC).
