America has seen Kari ‘John McCain Republicans can go to Hell’ Lake at the Republican National Convention.
And it was not good.
Seconds after telling everyone at the event that “We love you all,” the former television broadcaster, channeling her inner Sarah Palin in parts of her remarks, took it back, pointing to the media press boxes and saying:
“Actually, wait a minute. I don’t mean that. I don’t welcome everybody in this meeting, in this room. The guys up in the fake news. Frankly, you guys up there in the fake news have worn out your welcome…You have spent the last eight years lying about President Donald Trump and his amazing patriotic supporters. They lie about everything…But the really good news is that every day, more and more people are turning off the fake news…”
In the Orwellian MAGA-Trump-Project 2025-Alternative Reality World, fake actually means truth. Patriotic means hoodwinked, conned, or brainwashed.
The Arizona Republican Senate Candidate then proceeded to lie, lie, and lie again which again in the Orwellian Alternative Reality-MAGA world translates to truth.
She lied about Ruben Gallego voting to allow illegal aliens to vote. Daniel Dale of CNN quickly pointed out the lie there, telling Erin Burnett on CNN.
“A lot of subjective claims, a lot of opinions, but also one significant false claim. She claimed that her opponent in this Senate race, Democratic Congressman Ruben Gallego, voted to allow undocumented immigrants to vote in this upcoming election. That did not happen. There was no such vote.”
Lake also lied about:
- Arizona is in the “hands of the drug cartels.” It is not and it is Republican obstruction on border security and immigration reform that has made the situation worse.
- The state of the economy, saying MAGAnomics was better than Bidenonomics. In two words, not true.
- Educators indoctrinate children. Not happening.
She called for building the wall which her Duce, Mr. Trump had four years to do and did not complete. So much for him being the great builder.
She said that the Democrats were getting between American Mama Bears and their baby cubs, offering:
“That’s exactly where the radical left have found themselves. It’s not going to go well for them because they have woken a sleeping giant…They’re going to be hearing from us on November 5…”
Actually, the only thing the people in the Arizona suburbs and cities are hearing is a lying and fanatical candidate who lies and is clinging to the MAGA base instead of reaching out to the moderate middle.
Lake’s remarks earned stern rebukes from commentators at MSNBC who called it scorched Earth, disuniting, and derogatory to the fact-reality-based mainstream press.
America has seen Kari Lake.
And she sucked.
