“It’s going to be a fun eight years,” Lake says.
Arizona GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake has pledged to be the media’s “worst freaking nightmare for eight years” if she’s elected Governor in the Grand Canyon State; she says she will “reform the media.”
“I am going to not only be the governor of Arizona for four years,” she said. “I am going to do two terms. I’m going to be your worst freaking nightmare for eight years, and we will reform the media as well. We are going to make you guys into journalists again.”
“So get ready. It’s going to be a fun eight years,” she added. “I can’t wait to be working with you guys for eight years.”
From Fox News:
Lake added she would be “so thrilled” if Trump does run again, saying he needed to return to office to fix everything President Biden had “screwed up.”
Lake held forth with journalists for several minutes after voting in Phoenix, clashing with reporters who pressed her on rhetoric about concern with election integrity. She called her opponent, Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, “incompetent” and reiterated she should have recused herself from overseeing the election.
ake has made the media a frequent target on the campaign trail, calling them “monsters,” “fake news” and suggesting they should be defunded.
Tuesday was no different, as she pointed at the crowd of media around her and saying she saw several fake news “propagandists” in attendance.
On a lighter note, Lake also celebrated both her children voting for the first time on Tuesday, saying she will “cherish the moment forever.”
“Jeff and I joined both of our children, who voted for the first time today. These Baby Cubs voted for their Mama Bear. I will cherish this moment forever.”
