Maybe this can just become the general AZ thread, anyways, I mean, it is a step up from Ward.

Kari Lake has dominated this thread so much lately, I almost forgot Katie Hobbs is the governor. How has her tenure been this far?

Talk about delusion.... Abe's accounts are still tweeting as if he is the AG

Provocative, but sorta plausible hot-take of the week - excess deaths arising from anti-vaccination movement in AZ led to the AG race flipping:

Good gosh this woman is delusional. She thinks she's going to installed as  governor? There is no mechanism for that.

This obsession is borderline creepy

I mean at least the Trump delusion was funny to an extent. This garbage is just making me uncomfortable

[President Johnson]

This obsession is borderline creepy

It's becoming the new Republican norm.

I wouldn't be shocked if she shows up at the Governor's office someday and claims she's the rightful occupant.

at the rate she's going it wouldn't surprise me.

The mistake you’re all making is assuming she believes any of this.  Lake very clearly doesn’t actually believe most of the nonsense she spews and is just desperately trying to keep the grift going as long as possible.

Ι don't know about that. According to reports she was one of the few true believers of Trump's "stolen election" BS.

From what I’ve read, it’s a bit of an open secret that she didn’t become a Republican until 2012 (and still donated to some Democrats after that) and was basically a generic center-right establishment-friendly Republican until she realized she could make money/potentially acquire power by going all in on the Trump crazy train.  Now that she’s gone all in and burned all her non-Trumpy bridges in the process, she can’t acknowledge that the jig is up (I.e. that she blew it by losing the Governor’s race) because she has nothing to fallback on, especially since she wants to remain politically relevant.

The idea that she's been faking all along and faked it so well that she insisted on running an extreme right-wing campaign that lost her the election contradicts all the reporting that's been done and also doesn't really make any sense.

That she wasn't a Republican until recently is evidence in favor of her being a MAGA true believer, not against it. She was also a Buddhist a decade ago. She's an obvious example—in fact, the best example in American public life—of the New Age to QAnon pipeline. The only reason to think she's not sincere about the things she says is because you don't find it plausible that anyone would have that journey and believe those things, and in fact we know very well that there are plenty of women like her.

Contrary to popular belief, it is much easier to pull off a grift if you believe in it. That way you feel much less guilt

I doubt sociopaths feel much guilt, regardless of what they believe

I wouldn’t call 5% wins in Senate and Secretary of State races “narrow” but if that’s what makes her cope better
