You better be ready to play and take the punishment if you attempt to trip up Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake. The Trump-endorsed Lake has a God-given ability just to shred liberal media narratives within seconds. She’s also not afraid to deliver scorching zingers right to the faces of reporters who she knows are not friendly. After Joe Biden’s fascistic speech wherein he declared all supporters of Trump and the Republican Party enemies of the state, a reporter tried to turn the tables on Lake, who, like others, accused Biden of dividing the country.
Without fail, the reporter asked, “Do you feel Donald Trump is doing the same by falsely telling people he won that election when he lost it?”
Lake took a sip of water from a bottle and shredded his premise. Lake redirected, asking how questioning election results, which is protected free speech, divided the country when there were allegations of misconduct in Georgia and Pennsylvania. The drop-off boxes were left out in the open, vulnerable to tampering, and with no clear chain of custody. The drop boxes were just one of many issues that arose in the days when ballots were counted.
.@KariLake to Reporter: “We’re going to bring back freedom of speech. And maybe some day you’ll thank us for that”

“Since when can we not ask questions about our elections,” she said.
Lake, a journalist for almost 25 years, added that she remembered after 2016, there were people, just like this reporter, who questioned the validity of those election results.
“And nobody tried to shut you up,’ she added: “Nobody tried to tell Hillary Clinton to shut up. Nobody tried to tell Kamala Harris when she was questioning the legitimacy of these electronic voting machines to stop. We have freedom of speech in this country.”
The feisty Republican continued to brutalize the reporter, adding that he should appreciate that right. She continued how she doesn’t see how asking a question about an election with numerous controversies is divisive. What Ms. Lake finds corrosive to national unity are the pervasive censorship campaigns the Left conducted toward those who ask questions.
She ended the flogging by saying that we have the Constitution—it’s hanging by a thread—but she’s going to work to preserve it and bring back freedom of speech. Lake hopes the liberal media will thank the Republicans for that.
THWAP! A good dose of reality to that Stenographer for the Demoncrats.
The RATS questioned the results of the presidential elections in 2000, 2004 and 2016.
Gap toothed crazy Stacy questioned the results of the Georgia gubernatorial election in 2018.
Just a few that come to mind.
She talks a good game. Pray she wins and stays solid.
She did put the Whammy on the reporter.
And what’s best, is she did it off the cuff. Nothing prepared. And shit the person up. And she did with ease.
I’m thinking that’s what you get when you have a career talking to people. She started out on the bottom, being sent out to do street interviews, etc. You aren’t going to be any good at that if you don’t know how to talk to people.
And it’s obvious she isn’t one to back down.
Interesting, kind of like someone else.
Possible 2024 ticket…(if she actually is who she is portraying herself to be).
Pres Trump - Kari Lake ….. the Left wouldn’t have an answer to her. I would say about the only Dem that would be able to go toe-to-toe with her is Gabbard. But they tossed her like old leftovers. Outside of that, they have no one.
The media are claiming that Lake and Hobbs are in a “dead heat”, which means that Lake is in reality beating her by anywhere from 5-10%.
RINOs and squishes are getting crushed in primaries, and continue to poll well now that they’re running in their general elections. Blake Masters is giving Mark Kelly a real run for his money as well.
I think they can both win, but they’ll be facing hostile media and plenty of Democrat dirty tricks especially in Maricopa County. Might be a good time to plan to be a volunteer poll watcher.
Conservatives as a group are wimps ...
Trump is building his political grassroots ‘army’
Blessings!
You go, girl!!!!
This is what more “journalists” need, an @$$whooping like she gave him.
And she’s STILL harping on that.
“Without fail, the reporter asked, “Do you feel Donald Trump is doing the same by falsely telling people he won that election when he lost it?”
That’s not a reporter as much as it’s an activist for the Democratic party.
Man oh man oh women she is sharp. If she can’t win Arizona it is a lost state. I wonder if the McCain clan is going stick their nose in it to derail Lake?
these media elites don’t care about fair and honest journalism so why should they care about fair and honest elections.
What an awesome response!
Finally some back in your face to the MSM.

Bingo no more Paul Ryans
