Kari Lake’s chances of being Donald Trump’s running mate were pretty much shot to hell this week
Donald Trump‘s 2024 running mate. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be working out so well for her.In June, it was reported Lake had all but moved into a suite at Mar-a-Lago in an effort to position herself as Trump’s #2.
But by July, it was rumored she had already overstayed her welcome and he was growing tired of her. (Not to mention, Melania was growing jealous.)An unnamed Trump advisor told the Daily Beast that the one-term, twice-impeached, twice-indicted ex-president felt Lake was becoming too much of a “spotlight hound” and he didn’t like that she was going around telling everyone she should be his VP.“She’s a shameless, ruthless demagogue who wants power and will do whatever she has to do to get it,” they said.So, Lake has been on thin ice for a while.
And that ice likely got even thinner this week when a new poll out of Arizona found the majority of the state’s voters really, really, really don’t like her.
The poll, which was conducted by the nonpartisan research group Noble Predictive Insights between July 13 to 17, revealed that 51% of voters in the Grand Canyon State, including 29% of Republicans, hold an unfavorable view of the drag-hating “mama bear”.
