Pence campaigns for Arizona gubernatorial candidate

Former President Donald Trump and his estranged vice president, Mike Pence, are holding rival campaign events in Arizona. Pence urged voters to support Karrin Taylor Robson for governor.

The remark appeared to be an oblique critique of the Republicans still pushing the lie that Trump was the real winner in 2020, including Robson's rival, Kari Lake, a former television anchor who has embraced Trump's combative approach to his political enemies and the media.

Trump was scheduled to hold an evening rally in Prescott Valley on behalf of Lake and other candidates he has endorsed in Arizona's Aug. 2 primary.
