I don’t know how anyone can look at that stunt and see Lake as anything but divisive, rude, and ill-informed.

Frankly, one of the worst things about Trump is that he inspired/encouraged so many awful people like Lake to run for office.

They both sound like they’re mic’d, which is really odd.

They generally don’t have the success he has though.

Now I'm just picturing Lake driving to the airport, making herself look like she's travelling, and ambushing Gallego out of the bathroom near his terminal.

I wouldn't put it past her.

Wonder if Lake will try to pull a similar stunt on Sinema or if she doesn't really view Sinema as a threat to her chances of winning (could also be because Sinema isn't officially in the race yet). I can't even imagine what Sinema would do in this scenario. But she probably does like this exchange since she can use it as proof of being above the fray of partisan bickering.

Lake goes after everyone lol I'm sure she'll confront her over Trump or something.
Ngl a good strategy for Lake would be to attack Sinema and force her to defend her left-wing positions, therefore making her less popular with Republicans.

That’s not the win she thinks it is.  Gallego comes as very calm and thoughtful.  Lake comes off as a deranged jacka** and the sort of weirdo who spends their whole day shoving pictures of dead fetuses in people’s faces as they are trying to get to work.

Gallego objectively comes off far better here.

And, as an aside, this was almost more substantial than really any planned debate you get in 99% of cases. Tongue

I swear, if Menendez somehow won the nomination he would be more likely to lose than Gallego would be to lose to Kari Lake. She’s an absolute joke.

It would be risky because a large reason why these Republicans like Sinema and not her/Trump is temperament. The “Kari Lake bullies people” strategy does not endear her to them and makes her look weak and dumb (meanwhile, the average GOP primary voter thinks it projects strength…part of the reason why Trumpism is an electoral gamble).

I do have to wonder if an underrated factor in the GOP's underperformance last year with candidates like Lake could simply have been because they just plain come off as a**holes.

It's official:

Quote
PHOENIX -- Republican Kari Lake, a popular former local news anchor, self-described "MAGA Mama Bear" and staunch ally of former President Donald Trump, will launch a campaign for the U.S. Senate at a rally in Scottsdale, Arizona, on Tuesday night, nearly a year after losing the state's gubernatorial race -- a defeat she still refuses to concede.

Lake gets the Trump endorsement right out of the gate. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Lamb drop out soon.

But she told me she was the legitimate governor of Arizona, why is she running for the senate seat?

Just an endorsement? Not a complete and total endorsement? Sad!
