The Guardian's Lloyd Green, reviewing MAGAt queen wannabe, the stone-cold loser Kari Lake's book "Unafraid." She's certainly unafraid of lying and looking like a fool, or of losing at the ballot box and in multiple courts, because she keeps doing it. An excerpt from his review:
"Enter Kari Lake, a Trump acolyte and failed 2022 Republican gubernatorial candidate in Arizona. According to reports, she too has made Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s Florida resort, her winter home away from home, appearing there more often than Melania, and 'practically liv[ing] in a suite'.
Unafraid is a grievance-packed audition in Lake’s tireless quest to be named Trump’s running mate in 2024. He wrote the book’s foreword. Donald Jr is her publisher. [snip]
Like her idol, Lake is simultaneously embittered and energized by the electorate’s rejection. The pair occupy the same wavelength. Reality is an inconvenience.
'What happened to Kari Lake on 8 November 2022 is one of the most egregious cases of ‘highway robbery’ in any state’s history,' Trump thunders on the page. 'Kari Lake’s story does not end in defeat, because she is just getting started!'
Lake also harbors ambitions for the US Senate seat held by Kyrsten Sinema.
Unafraid is bile-filled and breezy. Introspection takes a holiday. Lake trashes high-profile LGTBQ+ Americans, embraces Paul Gosar of Arizona, one the most extreme and incendiary members of the Republican party … and demands national unity." (our emphasis)
Not all is a waste. The book is likely to be quoted extensively in the defamation suit filed by Maricopa County Recorder Steven Richer, a Republican, against Lake for falsely accusing him of costing her the 2022 Arizona gubernatorial election through fraud. There's nothing like having the defendant herself hand over the hard evidence to win your case. Just like her cult leader does!
