Arizona voters did not wants Republican Kari Lake to become their governor, and they probably wouldn’t want her to teach math after the far-fetched claim she made on Monday, either.
The former newscaster turned Donald Trump toadie Appeared on Steve Bannon’s ‘War Room’ podcast to discuss the former president’s arraignment in Miami on Tuesday.
Last weekend, Lake tried it support for Trump saying that if prosecutors want to “get to President Trump,” they must “go through me and 75 million Americans just like me.” And most of us are card-carrying members of the NRA.
On Monday, she put the “high” in “hyperbole” by claiming that 90% of the US population would get their collective panties in a forest because of Trump being charged with stealing top secret documents to Mar-a-Lago when he left the White House.
“If they think they’re going to hurt, put a finger on our president — President Trump — they’re going to have to come through me,” Lake told Bannon. “And I made a mistake, I said 75 million others are just like me. I think it’s more than 300 million others, just like me.”
Even conservative-leaning outlets like News week noted that Lake’s claim was “absurd” given that the US population is approximately 334 million, meaning nearly 9 in 10 Americans would protest Trump’s arrest, including many of the81 million people voted for Joe Biden in 2020.
Since it’s virtually impossible to get 90% of Americans to agree on anything, let alone Trump, chances are thate that Lake is just spreading BS or is really bad at math.
Fortunately, Twitter users were kind enough to teach Lake a lesson.
