Lake is very quick witted without any bitchiness.
She’s impressive.
I agree, and I want very much for her to do great things.
She reminds me of Margaret Thatcher.
I remember well when Reagan began his ascent in 1978 or 1979. I kept expecting him to hit the wall, to flame out in some way. To say the wrong thing and eliminate himself, or for some scandal in his past to be uncovered.
But none of those things happened. He just kept going and going, until he ran over Carter and made him look like road kill.
Then when he got into the White House, I was still expecting him to flame out. When he handled the PATCO strike (after the assassination attempt) I began to actually believe in him. It was wonderful what happened after that.
But that was so long ago. 40 years since we had a Conservative on the national scene that didn't make any missteps. Perhaps Kari Lake will be like RR. I certainly hope so.
Kari Lake disproves the lie that men are threatened by confident, strong women. What men are put off by is exactly what you refer to: women who aspire to leadership who come across as angry, shrill, bossy, unlikable, and, yes, bitchy. She has the wit, the charm, the eloquence, and the gravitas that does not alienate the average man.
