Lake Says Arizona Does Not Like Kamala Harris

Vice President Kamala Harris and her new running mate, Governor Tim Walz (D-MN), are visiting Arizona this Friday to gin up support for her Presidential campaign. In recent comments to Fox News Digital, Senate candidate Kari Lake (R) discussed the upcoming visit, bluntly declaring that "people do not like her here."

"People here in Arizona, more than anyone in the country, are living the nightmare that Kamala Harris, [and] frankly, [President Joe] Biden and [Representative] Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) have created," said Lake.

Additionally, she noted that Harris has not visited the southern border, and "Ruben Gallego has rubber-stamped everything," describing how their support for sanctuary cities and granting voting rights to illegal aliens "are policies the American people are not for, so as long as she keeps coming to Arizona, she is just going to watch her popularity go down because people do not want what they are having, which is absolutely America-last policies."

Moreover, Lake rebelled against the idea that the Republican Party is divided, claiming "the party is actually united and growing. It is stronger than ever. We have the grassroots, we have got the traditional Republicans; we are all together in our mission to stop the most radical ticket we have ever seen in our lifetimes."

As a result, the Arizona Senate candidate suggested the Harris-Walz ticket alienates independents and some Democrats in the "huge crowd" she recently spoke to.

"There are so many independents and former Democrats in there who just said, 'Enough is enough; these destructive policies of the far liberal Democrats are not working for our lives," Lake continued.

Her comments shifted to the apparent rewriting of Harris and Walz's image and history by friendly media. Harris, in particular, is receiving "an extreme makeover... trying to act like she is actually competent when we have seen her incompetency at play for the last several years."

Lake's observation aligns with several Florida Republicans, including Representative Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL) and Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL).

Representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL) recently went as far as demanding correspondence within the Department of Homeland Security referring to Harris as "border czar" directly or indirectly, as she has recently denied holding the position.
