Can you imagine! the hubris is jaw dropping.

Joe Arpaio, the fiery former sheriff from Arizona, will run for Senate
By David Weigel January 9 at 12:21 PM
.....
The former sheriff’s decision came as a surprise to some Democrats, who thought Arpaio’s career had ended in 2016. After 24 years as Maricopa County’s chief law enforcement officer, Arpaio was handily defeated by Democrat Paul Penzone. Trump carried the county by three points; Arpaio ran 12 points behind Penzone, losing by more than 130,000 votes.

....
Arpaio’s Senate bid in the year of his 86th birthday is making Democrats even more bullish on a race in which Rep. Krysten Sinema (D-Ariz.) has already consolidated most Democratic support.

“We beat him like a drum in 2016, and we’ll beat him like a drum if he runs again,” Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.) told reporters last year.

Asked Tuesday about Arpaio’s decision, Gallego amended his prediction: Democrats would beat Arpaio “like a drum at a college football game.”
