Flake challenger Kelli Ward meets with Trump's White House

The President has a lot to do, he is not out recruiting for candidates in the Arizona Senate Primary race. I am glad to have a growing number of influential Trump supporters on my team. Jeff Flake needs to start doing his job and stop lying to the Arizona voters about his position on Obamacare. He voted for full repeal in 2015 as a show vote, a ruse, a lie. After 7 plus years of running on and raising money on full repeal, the Senate is stuck with facing their lies and the American public. My race for the U.S. Senate is about telling the truth and doing what you say you were going to do, not saying one thing to get elected and another to try to stay in D.C.” - Dr. Kelli Ward

A conservative Republican who is running to unseat Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake said Monday she has met with White House officials about the campaign.

The June meeting in Washington points to uneasy ties between President Donald Trump and Flake, a Republican who was an outspoken critic of the billionaire businessman in last year's presidential contest.

"I was encouraged," Kelli Ward said of the meeting, but she wouldn't divulge details of what was discussed or who attended the sit-down.

The former state senator, who sought to unseat Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain in 2016, called Flake ineffective and a drag on the Trump agenda in the Senate.

Ward acknowledged that ousting an incumbent is difficult but pointed to Trump's surprise win in 2016 and added that "times have changed."
