Jeff DeWit resigned as the chair of the Arizona Republican Party Wednesday, 24 hours after DailyMail.com published leaked audio of him offering Kari Lake a plum job or money to step out of politics.

In the tape, he can be heard explaining that powerful people would offer her a job or money if she sits out of politics for two years.

In his resignation statement he accused Lake of setting him up by recording a private conversation.

Cheers!

Now HE is the victim. Sweet!!!

[blackdog]

Funny how Republicans are the only ones to experience consequences for their conduct?

"In his resignation statement he accused Lake of setting him up by recording a private conversation."

What a total POS.

[cgbg]

2024 is off to a good start.

It sounds like he was trying the old Marion Barry excuse:

“The B set me up....”

Lol.

[Terry L Smith]

once again, “a party member” attempting to subvert the will of the Peoplle.

Suck it up buttercup. Even if she did set you up(which she did not), you still said what you said. No getting around that. You are no victim.

I would like to know, who put him up to it. They need to go, as well.

I suspect he is trying to put out the fire that is slowly growing since the audio of that conversation is starting to be spread. It going to be hard for the GOP establishment to spin what was said. The GOPe was trying to pay off Kari in exchange for stepping down and not running for office this year.

If Kari’s opponents remain silent on the issue, she can pound them with ads highlighting their assumed approval of those tactics.

Would the Foxes try and buy her out?

I hope no one still thinks she lost and the election wasn’t rigged.

[Red Badger]

The Marion Barry excuse!

Didn’t work for him, either................

[ClearCase_guy]

Exactly. The election was clearly rigged. And both parties were in on it. State level and national level. People need to wake up.

[Ouderkirk]

She didn’t set you up....you set YOURSELF up by being a complete POS.

[Sirius Lee]

The person “back East” who wanted Kari out, doesn’t want DeWitt to remain in a position where he might be pressured to give up the name. He gladly took the money.

“In his resignation statement he accused Lake of setting him up by recording a private conversation.”

I wonder what he thinks of Raffensperger recording Trump in Georgia.

he accused Lake of setting him up by recording a private conversation.

Correct. Idiot.

In his resignation statement he accused Lake of setting him up by recording a private conversation.

So it's her fault he bribed her. Guy would make a great Dem chairman.
