Ex-GOP Senate Candidate Torches MAGA Hat, Challenges Trump to $1 Million Debate

A former Republican candidate for U.S. Senate in Arizona has burned his MAGA hat and challenged former President Donald Trump to a $1 million charity debate amid right-wing criticism of his support for COVID-19 vaccines.
