Former Arizona broadcaster-turned-MAGA firebrand Kari Lake, while unsuccessful during her attempt to become governor of her state and a U.S. senator, is nevertheless a friend of the movement, given her ability to verbally destroy the Democratic far left, which is pretty much the entire party these days. And she do so with stinging effectiveness again during a Tuesday appearance on British journalist Piers Morgan’s panel show with a stunning takedown of the previously little-known lawmaker who filed impeachment articles against President Donald Trump this week.
Specifically, Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI), who recently declared his candidacy for next year’s Democratic gubernatorial primary, was challenged by Lake and conservative commentator Tim Pool on whether he’s leveraging impeachment talk to advance his own campaign for Michigan’s top office. “His numbers are lower than any other president – you have to go back 70 years… The only other president with [such] bad numbers was Trump 45. So people have spoken,” the Democratic lawmaker said, citing a bogus CNN outlier poll released ahead of Trump’s 100th day in office to push the false narrative that Americans who elected him in record numbers are suddenly sick of him. Morgan then tried to prompt Lake to voice doubts about her boss. Lake is the president’s appointee to head the U.S. Agency for Global Media, which oversees Voice of America.
“First of all, where did this guy come from?” she asked about Thanedar. “With all due respect, this is an idiotic thing to do, proving that the Democrat Party has no play. They don’t know what to do right now because Trump is winning on everything. He’s strategizing how to fix the economy that Joe Biden drove not only into a ditch but off a cliff, and this is why the American people were suffering. And it sounds to me like this is a political move to put him in good graces with the AOC crowd and the very, very far-left, radical crowd ahead of another election.”
Lake added that Thanedar’s transparent attempt to kick up dust amid his controversy isn’t fooling voters. “The American people are sick of these attempts at impeaching President Trump. They don’t want to see this again, and I’m embarrassed for this gentleman, this congressman, because he’s doing that, that he’s fallen to that level to try and impeach President Trump in his first 100 days as he tries to save us from the serious missteps of Joe Biden and that administration that almost broke the backs of every American in this country,” she thundered.
She’s right. The Democrat-led impeachments of Trump during his first term were as outrageous as they were unprecedented. But that’s what Democrats do: They constantly abuse the system for their own political gain and they don’t give a rat’s you-know-what about the ill-effects on the country, which helps explain why Thanadar is now the second member of his party to file impeachment articles after Texas Democrat Al Green. Americans are tired of the Democrat clown show, and they proved that in November.
