WATCH The Trump-Endorsed Candidate For AZ Governor Storm Out Of An Interview When Asked About ‘Your Man, Donald’

Kari Lake is running to be the GOP gubernatorial nominee in the state of Arizona, and she’s doing so with the full blessing and endorsement of failed, one-term former President Donald Trump.

But when a reporter from “60 Minutes Australia” asked Lake about “your man, Donald,” the candidate took offense and stormed off the set, proving that the biggest snowflakes in the world are indeed right-wingers when you dare to confront them with facts.

Reporter Liam Bartlett began by asking what Lake thought about Trump’s suggestion that he would pardon anyone convicted for their role in the January 6 Capitol insurrection if he runs for president and manages to win in 2024, to which Lake responded:

“Well, that really has nothing to do with being Governor of Arizona. I wasn’t there.”

Bartlett countered:

“Let’s be fair on this. Your man, Donald — your man, Donald, brought it up.”

Lake, however, said she was offended by what Bartlett had said:

“Why did you say that, sir? Your man, Donald?” 

Bartlett:

“He said they should all be pardoned. Do you think they should be pardoned.”

But Lake remained focused on the “your man, Donald” comment:

“I’m still amazed you said that. Your man, Donald. That’s just so disrespectful.”

The reporter reminded Lake:

“Why would it? He’s endorsed you. His personal endorsement.”

Lake whined:

“It’s just the flippant attitude. It’s just — it’s obvious you’ve come into this. It’s obvious you’ve come into this and you don’t like President Donald Trump.”

Bartlett continued to press, again asking:

“Kari, do you think they should be pardoned?

The Arizona Republican remained combative:

“I have no say in that. I’m running for governor. This isn’t something a governor does. You’re trying to twist that to make me look bad.”

Bartlett:

“You’re a Republican. He’s the Republican leader.”

A few seconds, later, Lake walked off the set in a huff, acting like a child throwing a temper tantrum.

It should be interesting to see how other GOP candidates act and respond when they’re asked the same questions that Lake pitched a fit about.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Accuses Democrats Of Trying To ‘Create Happiness’ So They Can Win The Midterms

 

If you thought you’d heard all of the absurd bullshit that could possibly emanate from the putrid piehole that Georgia Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene calls her mouth, what she said earlier today is so ridiculous that it’s incredible she was able to say it without bursting into laughter.

Appearing on the right-wing “Real America’s Voice” podcast, Greene suggested that Democrats want to “create happiness” so they can win the midterm elections:

“I think we’re going to hear Joe Biden, he’s going to claim victory over Covid. And if he does that then you’ll know the Democrats are lying. You’ll know for sure like we’ve already known along that they’re just using Covid for politics and they’re very much looking to move on and create happiness going into the midterms.”

Wouldn’t Biden be justified in declaring victory over COVID? After all, it was his administration that made sure everyone who wanted a vaccination got one. 64% of the U.S. population is now fully vaccinated. 76% have received at least one dose. That’s despite the lies and misinformation spread by right-wing media and anti-vax extremists like Congresswoman Greene, who was too busy attending a white nationalist convention over the weekend to do anything constructive for her constituents.

There are already rumblings inside the GOP that they may not do as well as they originally thought in November. With clowns like Marjorie Taylor Greene on the ballot, Republicans have every reason to be concerned.

Perhaps the best response to Greene’s rant came from Twitter:

That’d make one hell of a bumper sticker. Maybe Margie can have some printed up.

Trump Tells Laura Ingraham That Putin Invaded Ukraine ‘Because Of A Rigged Election’

Shortly after Russian forces began a military attack on Ukraine Wednesday evening, failed, one-term former President Donald Trump called into Fox News for the sole purpose of airing his bogus claims that the 2020 election had been stolen from him.

Trump began by slamming the current President of the United States, Joe Biden, telling Ingraham:

“He doesn’t know what the hell he’s doing. It’s a disgrace. It’s an absolute disgrace. We have get back into the real world now. We had energy at a level that nobody’s ever seen.”

The ex-president also suggested that Russian President Vladimir Putin moved on Ukraine because of the “weakness and incompetence and stupidity” of the Biden administration:

“As an American I’m angry about it, and I’m saddened by it, and it all happened because of a rigged election.”

“This would have never happened, and that includes inflation, and that includes millions of people pouring in on a monthly basis, far more than three million people, and they’re coming from 129 different countries, we have no idea what’s happening, and they’re destroying our country.”

Later in the discussion, Ingraham noted:

“We’re just learning that U.S. officials are looking at a potential amphibious landing now in Odessa, Ukraine. A month ago or three weeks ago, all the so-called experts were saying that Putin was probably gonna just be content with staying in those separatists regions. But I think given what’s unfolded – sadly with a lot of weakness in the United States – they just decided to go for it.”

That’s when Trump proved he can’t even get the most basic facts of a conversation correct, telling the Fox host:

“But you know what’s also very dangerous is you told me about the amphibious attack by Americans. You shouldn’t be saying that because you and everybody else shouldn’t know about it. They should do that secretly, not be doing that through the great Laura Ingraham. They should be doing that secretly. Nobody should know that, Laura, and you know–”

Ingraham immediately corrected the doddering former president:

“No, those are the Russian amphibious landings.”

The “rigged” election was in 2016, when Putin helped Trump get elected. Donald knows that, and it’s why he’s constantly trying to divert attention away from the crimes he committed to get elected.

Challenger To Lauren Boebert Masterfully (And Grossly) Trolls Her For The Sh*tstorm She’s Created

Though the vast majority of those who are currently reading this have never heard of Alex Walker, there’s an excellent chance you’ll never forget this name once you see the campaign ad he’s running in Colorado to be the Democratic nominee who faces incumbent Republican congresswoman Lauren Boebert in November.

The video, which has quickly gone viral, The Daily Beast reports, is one of the best examples of edgy political advertising ever attempted by any candidate:

Political newcomer Alex Walker, the latest Democratic challenger to toss his hat into the ring to unseat MAGA-boosting Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), announced his presence with perhaps the most nauseating campaign ad ever. The two-minute online video that debuted Tuesday starts with a woman getting crushed by a giant pile of feces, followed by other townsfolk trying to avoid a literal storm of shit.

Yes, you read that correctly: A shitstorm. And it’s just as disgusting as you’d expect, but it’s also brilliant and hilarious, and it’s likely to make Alex Walker a household name in the Centennial State, especially when he promises to eliminate her “bullshit” if he’s elected:

Eventually, Walker emerges and picks up a soiled teddy bear before announcing he has joined a crowded race to defeat the mudslinging congresswoman. “We are real Coloradans. We deserve a living wage, small government that actually works, and freedom of choice,” he says. “Instead, we have bullshit.”

The tagline for Walker’s ad is also sure to resonate with voters:

“Colorado needs a bull, not a bullshitter. I’m Alex Walker and I approve the shit out of this message!”

For anyone who has forgotten, here’s some of the bullshit that Boebert has been spewing since she took office:

“The Constitution is not evolving,” she wrote on Twitter. “To say that spits in the face of every single one of our founders.”

Shit! The woman is crazy. She needs to be replaced ASAP.

Arizona GOP Senate Candidate Shoots At Lookalikes Of Biden And Pelosi In ‘Disgusting’ Ad

A Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate has released a Super Bowl ad that shows him in an armed showdown with President Joe Biden, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), and Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ), whose wife, Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) was shot and seriously wounded by a gunman in 2011.

The Hill reports:

Arizona Senate candidate Jim Lamon’s campaign released a Super Bowl ad on Thursday depicting him in an armed “showdown” with Democratic leaders including incumbent Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly (D). 

The 30-second ad features actors depicting Kelly, President Biden, and Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).

“The good people of Arizona have had enough of you. It’s time for a showdown,” Lamon, who plays himself in the ad, says. 

The Democratic figures then draw their weapons and Lamon shoots at them, prompting them to run away.

Blake Masters and Michael McGuire, who are Lamon’s rivals for the GOP nomination, blasted him for his sick ad, with Masters calling it “absurd and desperate. Fits his campaign.”

McGuire noted:

“Real violence and use of deadly force is no laughing matter. Violence in America is real and it isn’t funny. This ad shows poor judgment and isn’t reflective of the values of the Second Amendment. This ad will do more to boost Mark Kelly’s fundraising than help Republicans.”

Shannon Watts, founder of the gun control group Moms Demand Action, weighed in on Twitter:

Rather than apologize, Lamon doubled down:

Lamon has almost no chance of winning the GOP nomination, and even he were to get the nod, isn’t seen as a serious contender to Kelly.
