A prominent Arizona Republican official wrote a Facebook post Saturday that said "dumb ass people" helped U.S. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema get elected.

Bruce Ash, a Tucson resident and national GOP committeeman, said Sinema looked more like "Senator Madonna" than the "Senator Barbie Doll" she projected when she ran for election in 2018.

He also commented that her politics and positions will "lean further left than the dumb ass people on our side ever imagined," when they left their ballots blank in the race between Sinema and Republican candidate Martha McSally, "which led the way to her being seated in the U.S. Senate this past week," Ash wrote.

While Sinema won the race, Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey later appointed McSally to replace Jon Kyl, who decided to step down from a seat that was previously held by the late John McCain.

In an earlier post, Ash questioned Sinema's decision to take her oath of office by swearing in on a law book, rather than the Bible.

Sinema and McSally made history Thursday when they became the first two women from Arizona sworn into the U.S. Senate. Sinema also became the first openly bisexual person in the Senate.

Plenty of people commented on Sinema's outfit at the swearing in, and the pink coat she wore over her outfit, comparing her to the character Elle Woods from the film "Legally Blonde" and Dolores Umbridge, High Inquisitor of Hogwarts, in the "Harry Potter" series, among others.

Efforts to contact both Ash and Sinema for comment Saturday evening were unsuccessful.
