I fear we will hear this thing screaming for the next eight years. eight??

Arizona’s GOP Candidate Kari Lake pointed her finger at an NBC journalist and told the cameras “I'm going to be your worst frickin' nightmare for eight years.” This is an explicit threat against America’s free press. It is also a clear-cut violation of the First Amendment.

Exact revenge and settle scores.

But really….can you see misogynist Trump putting up with this, especially if she becomes the new MAGA sweetheart?

She is evil personified.

into old sexist stereotypes "harridan" and "virago," and seem bent on matching Trump for an enraged and violent tone. All steel and no magnolia.

...saying she's going to reform the media is too hilarious.

She resigned after the evil media caught her speaking at CPAC and questioned her impartiality.

Now she's going to be governor with literally no governing experience.

First, you have to win your race, and that's not a sure thing by any means.

But second, if you want to waste a shit-ton of Arizona taxpayer dollars tilting at First Amendment windmills, you're not going to have no eight years in office.

Just smile and say, "Bless your heart."

You're Trump With Tits. They love him, too, because he brings the eyeballs every time he open his anus-shaped yap. You'll be no different. Fucking crackpot. Godspeed, sane people of Arizona.

"Carrie" will become Kari, and we will hear Arizona laughing from coast to coast.

What rhymes with "Lake?"

FAKE !

And I'm guessing that if Trump were to choose a female running mate, he'd choose Lake over Perjury Traitor Greene.

21. Lake vs MTG for Trump's VP

Trump and MTG have been cozy and she has lobbied very hard with ugly MAGA rhetoric and love bombed him.

Lake is a nasty piece of work but seems more sophisticated and attractive.

What is it about Lake that appeals to Trump over MTG?

I am not disagreeing with you, I cannot make up my mind.
So I am curious what you think.

Before moving to SC in 2016. Went back there a few weeks ago for a couple days. Worst political ads I’ve ever seen. People are big on the border issue there so it’s a huge advantage for the crazies like Lake. I think AZ is a lost cause.
