The bolded part is the new Uniparty trial balloon, guaranteed.
What DeWit leaves out is that (reported elsewhere) he requested to meet Lake in person because it was something he didn't want to discuss over the phone. Unless its a family member, that right there is a potential red flag.

But its Lake whi can't be trusted? Sort of dovetails into the latest O'Keefe expose of (potentially compromised) legislators being given slips of paper telling them how to vote, or McConnell supposedly putting up that horrendous immigration bill. Yeah, for sure the latter can be trusted.

I am in Arizona, and I support Kari Lake.

However, if DeWitt claimed the audio was selectively edited, I would allow him to state his case and withhold judgment on that matter. As soon as he quits, to me that is an admission that the audio is substantially accurate . . . and he is terminally stupid.

claiming she “cannot be trusted to engage in private and confidential conversations.”

Ah, so the problem, according to DeWit, is that she EXPOSED the attempted bribe, not that he was trying to bribe her. Classic.

Ok. If it was selectively edited… who were the people back east? Clear the air. Also when she said she’d probably get killed, why did you respond that there were cartels in all 50 states?

The GOP is called "The Stupid Party" for a good reason.

“Cannot be trusted” is RINO speak for “refused to be bribed and told of the sleazy attempt.”

Establishment Republicans are only mildly less corrupt than democrats.

Mildly.

Seems the cartels are the big money supports for the Az. Govt.
They need to keep the drug avenues open in Az. Lake cannot be bought.

The people back east are not gonna be happy with DeWitt, and are no doubt worried about being exposed by him. And DeWitt is worried about being silenced.

THAT was the big (hate to use the word) bombshell of that recording.

Cartels in all 50 states??

Be great if someone could expand on that, Mr. DeWit (before they kill you)

Michael Patrick Leahy – Sources: The Jeff DeWit “Message Came From The NRSC” aka Mitch McConnell

Michael Patrick Leahy appears on Steve Bannon War Romm discussing, in part, the Jeff DeWit message to Kari Lake and who from “back east” was the originator of the message to bribe Mrs Lake to stay out of the Arizona senate race. {Direct Rumble Link}

DeWit accuses Kari Lake of releasing “a selectively edited audio recording of our private conversation,” calling it a “deceptive tactic.”

Horse puckey.

There’s a reason “Cartel Katie” is the governor.

He claims his is an “unpaid” role.

Really?

Betcha he’s getting “paid” in some fashion.

Mildly.

People like this guy remind me of so many people that I worked with, and for, over the years. Not that they were all corrupt, it’s just that smarmy, self-promoting phoniness that makes my skin crawl. I retired two years ago (had to pull the eject handle to avoid the “vax” mandate), but my LinkedIn account is still active, so I’m constantly getting updates from those in my contacts list. The constant parade of people in that feed who are just competing with each other to spout the greatest volume of inane corporate buzzwords is ridiculous. It’s non-stop gibberish that has approximately zero actual substance. A constant stream of insincere congrats for meaningless made-up awards, “achievements” with no intrinsic value other their ability to boost the image of that person in the minds of equally vapid corporate drones, bragging about their “certification” in the latest management fad, and of course all manner of babbling about various aspects of wokeness.

I just shake my head at the absurdity of it all, then sit back and thank God once again that I am retired and no longer have to be around soulless people like that.

If he’s really not guilty, he shouldn’t have resigned.
