Thank God! This man is an out of control egotistical authoritarian that just needs to fade away into the desert sun.

Just need this trend to continue now through to Nov and get rid of the GOP trash and Trump trash from the US political system. Senate needs to go Blue along with Congress along with WH. Then undo all the Trash that Trump & GOP morons have done since 2016. Look at corruption too.

When future crime rates go up because of the Dems we know why and what happened. Liberals full of Socialism evil and Communist lies caused more destruction in America.

So it goes

Sweet! Go Trump 2020!

Out to pasture!

Good

He's a nonce to.

Leftist have no idea what this means

Wonderful, Another hateful creep!

“controversial hairline tactics” = racist/racism tactics

Very unfortunate.

Yesssss...

This guy is like COVID, it won’t go away.

Does it matter really? We're talking about Arizona, a strong Repug state. What's are the odds that another racist won't become Sheriff?

good riddance!!!

Darn! 😂

GREAT! THAT'S GREAT! KICK THE BUMM CROOK CRIMINAL OUT!

LetHerSpeak

LockHimUp

Greatest news of the day!! Let sanity and humanity prevail!

Come on, say it: 'Illegal aliens!'

He was NO good!

😂😂😂

YEA, YEA, I Know this will upset Meghan McCain, I hope she takes it softly

Can we all send him pink underwear? These are cheap.

Knowing the snake Trump, he'll reverse the result of the sheriff election and blame it on President Obama.

a country with no borders is no country at all, we need to stop the spread of a virus and as countries like Barbados and New Zealand prove that closing borders stops the spread of disease. Banned the Chinese in December wed all have been safe, just like the muslim ban, all safer.

Good riddance

Very ironic
