Has Trump really turned on Kari Lake, one of his loudest cheerleaders? Arwa Mahdawi Arwa Mahdawi Her biggest political accomplishment was losing Arizona’s gubernatorial race in 2022 – and now Trump and his team think she might be too thirsty for attention

Sat 8 Jul 2023 09.00 EDT Kari Lake’s career goes bung Let’s say you want to be vice-president of the United States but you don’t have any meaningful political experience and you’ve never held public office. What do you do?

For most normal people, the answer would be to build your political career gradually. Start small, work your way up, and hope that one day your hard work gets you one of the biggest jobs in the world.

But Kari Lake, a self-described “election-denying deplorable” who has helped boost conspiracy theories about Covid vaccines and once called Anthony Fauci an “evil elf”, is not like most normal people. Her two-pronged strategy for rising to the top of the political world? 1) Say as many bigoted and outlandish things as possible, in a bid to generate headlines. 2) Become Donald Trump’s loudest lapdog.

The Left fears Kari Lake. She understands the Deep State threat.

She would make a fine VP for the greatest President in our age.

I bit the bullet and read the article.

As expected, a total hit piece on Lake and Trump. The title is based on one unsourced comment.

Not worth the electrons used to post it.

When Trump turns on somebody, he’s usually not subtle about it, often he throws out a really cutting insult.

If Trump does turn on Kari Lake, the insult will be, he could not have her on his team because she has never won an election before, stone cold loser.

When a bigot like this author calls someone a bigot then they should wear it like a badge of honor.

I was really hoping she would be the Governor of Arizona but that did not happen, why would the left fear someone who has never won an election ??

Heh heh.

That’s exactly why I think Trump should pick Lake as his VP. I can see the posters now.:

Trump/Lake
Vote for us because we both have had our election stolen

I like Kari Lake, but I don't think she's ready for the meat grinder that awaits anyone on the Trump team. We all thought that a guy who mastered the rough and tumble word of New York business and major network broadcasting politics would be ready for the Swamp. And while Trump is still standing, I doubt anyone else alive could or would have done to stand up to the forces that are relentlessly against him.

I believe Trump's greatest achievement was revealing the extent of our political and government corruption. Yet we are far from overcoming it. But we have identified it.

Well do you think Biden's 81 million votes in '20 were legitimate?

99 percent of what the media reports about Trump turns out to be lies.

First you show me Trumps path to 270 in 2024. Show your work.

I have no idea what happened in 2020 .I am thinking it was closer to 2004 election. Much more closer.

Don’t forget it hasn’t been very long ago that Kari Lake contributed to and was a supporter of Barack Obama.

Our domestic enemies are just stirring up rumors trying to get the conservative patriots to turn on Trump. Watch as GOP minions "clutch their pearls" and "wring their fingers" while spewing concern-troll porn. No sensible conservative is giving this a second thought.

The world some live on here is not even close to reality. In some ways, the country would improve if their dream like delusions were true. But they are not even close.

And surely you recall Trump's own Democratic history, correct? Or is that just inconvenient now.
