Former President Trump-endorsed Senate candidate Blake Masters joined Breitbart News Saturday on SiriusXM with host Matthew Boyle to discuss the importance of the midterm election in Arizona.

Blake Masters, who is running for the U.S. Senate in Arizona, articulated the critical importance of the midterm election in Arizona and the need for Republicans to take back Congress.

Masters first spoke to the appeal of his campaign in Arizona, saying, “I’m out here getting traction in Arizona because I don’t sound and look and feel like a traditional politician. And that’s good because traditional politicians have failed us.”

He pointed to the left’s legacy of open borders and rampant inflation before saying that traditional Republicans “who only want to play defense” have just “let this stuff happen.”

Masters also articulated the need to address new threats that are facing the country, stating, “I’m out here telling voters in Arizona about my plan to rein in Big Tech, right. What about ESG? Scores in a world configuration of corporate America won’t be letting Chinese nationals buy all this farmland very often next to U.S. military installations. Why are we letting Bill Gates do that?”

Masters told Boyle that the race in Arizona was of critical importance: “This race is the most important nationwide because I think it’s going to determine who has the 51st vote and the United States Senate,” he stated. Masters continued, “It’s going to determine whether we take back control from the Democrats, and the stakes couldn’t be higher.”

Masters also noted that if Democrats retain control, “they would federalize elections. They’d run elections out of D.C. they would pack the Supreme Court.” He also noted that the Democrats want to “add U.S. states to the union not because that would make the union better, but because they get two new Democrat Senate seats for every state that they add.”

The Trump-endorsed candidate also said that Democrat Sen. Mark Kelly “pretends to be a moderate” before he and host Boyle noted that Kelly consistently votes with Sen. Chuck Schumer and the Democrats.

“Mark Kelly lied to the people of Arizona,” Masters said, pointing out that he votes in lockstep with the Democrats and has even voted to legalize abortion up until the moment of birth.

Ultimately, Masters said that Republican control of Congress will decide if “we’re going to have an America that we recognize in 10 or 20 years.”
