The infighting among members of the Arizona Republican Party boiled over on Saturday during a contentious meeting.
"Kelli Ward, the fractious leader of the Arizona Republican Party, narrowly beat back significant competition on Saturday to win another two-year term as the organization's chairwoman despite the endorsement of former President Donald Trump," the Arizona Republic reported Saturday. "The closely watched result offers an early, state-level indication that Trump retains sway over the activist base of the GOP, though it is more tenuous. The election also suggests the longstanding divisions in the state party in the Trump era have not abated."
President Donald Trump pressured U.S. Department of Justice attorneys, possibly including former Attorney General Bill Barr, to file a lawsuit against four U.S. states in the U.S. Supreme Court, in one of his final attempts to overturn the election.
The Wall Street Journal reports late Saturday night that effort "failed due to pushback from his own appointees in the Justice Department, who refused to file what they viewed as a legally baseless lawsuit in the Supreme Court."
Former President Donald Trump is reportedly livid at Republicans who he views as insufficiently subservient -- including the 10 Republicans who voted for his second impeachment.
But the threats come as he is in retirement at Mar-a-Lago and there are flaws in his plan, as was documented by New York Times White House correspondent Maggie Haberman on Saturday evening.
