With the 2022 Midterms right around the corner and the Democrats struggling on every front as even White House staffers are exiting, it appears there is no stopping the massive wave of red that is predicted to wash over D.C. this November. And one of those Republicans is none other than the candidate for Arizona Governor, Kari Lake. For those who might not know, Lake once worked for the mainstream media, but after watching the Biden administration when it came to the withdrawal in Afghanistan and the Southern Border crisis, she decided to take a stand. And not only has she caused waves with the oppositions, but when it comes to even her fellow party members, Lake is tired of what she calls “weak Republicans.”
While Lake represents the GOP, apparently none of the other candidates want to debate her, not even Republicans. In the video, which is featured below, the candidate admitted, “In critical times in American history and really in human history, voters deserve to hear from candidates outside of just paid political ads. The Arizona Republican Party is hosting a debate between the Republican candidates for governor. Unfortunately, I’m the only candidate that has agreed to the debate. Matt Salmon refused and Karrin Robinson didn’t even have the decency to respond to the AZGOP. I want to speak directly to Karrin and Matt, what are you so terrified of? You both have been in politics your entire lives? I’m brand new to it.”
Wanting nothing more than a chance to present her ideas, Lake even offered some incentives. “How about this, I will make the debate even easier on you. If you will agree to debate with me and share your vision with Arizona Republicans, I will agree to allow you to have all of the questions in advance and take notes up on stage with you. Not sure what else you want me to do. I guess I could tie one hand behind my back. So Matt, and Karrin, I want to leave you with this. I want you to think about all of the people that have supported each of your campaigns, whether it’s with their time or their money – what a slap in the face this is to your supporters that they are willing to fight for you and you refuse to fight for them.”
It wasn’t just about a debate to Lake as she added that if they weren’t able to speak with her, how would they speak for the American people. “I hope you will both reconsider. And if you’re a voter watching this at home, I ask that you encourage my opponents to grow a spine and debate me or, at the very least, ask them what is so terrifying about Kari Lake. I’m genuinely curious. If they can’t go up against a fellow Republican there is no way in hell that they will stand up against the activists in the media, the radicals in the legislature, or the terrorists in the cartels. The era of weak Republicans is over.”

Tie half your brain behind your back, just to make it fair… with a nod to El Rushbo.
I would like Ms Lake to explain why she contributed to Obama’s second presidential campaign. In 2012 we knew what he stood for and what he was doing to the country.
I’ll wait. I’ve emailed her before with this question. Silence.
