Kari Lake claims she was bribed to stay out of politics

She should say who approached her.

Lol she's so delusional.

She's the best thing to happen to Arizonan Democrats since Donald Trump. She lost an easily winnable race. Katie Hobbs isn't a Fetterman, but she's laughably bad.

I applaud her for her bravery and courage to even come out with this, as its well known the Cartels have been bribing Hobbs for a decade now and tried to hedge their bet to get Kari to bow out.

I hope she gets added security.

she had a promising start to this but has gone down the trump road of despair.


this is what happens when you tell your constituents to get in line and vote. should be telling them to harvest ballots.

Some of y'all are claiming that Keri and her character caused Hobbs to win. This is false. I made a thread about the investigations involving the tracking of cartel money leading directly to Hobbs. Coupled with the "malfunctions" of the Maricopa polling places specifically in republican dominated areas, it's becoming quite clear that Keri lost due to large scale illegal activity.

Some of y'all watch too much main stream media to have put these things together though. I, on the other hand, I've been watching the Senate hearings and listening to testimony of witnesses and investigators to get all of the details. The fraud and criminal activity is so big and complex, many will deny that even happened because it's so hard to believe

Unless she comes out and shows proof who tried to bribe her than this is just useless

100%

I believe she was bribed, it's how so many people are bought and paid for. She should say who though.

We shouldn’t trust politicians

She is definitely telling the truth

Pick one.

I’m not saying she wasn’t bribed but without providing proof this is just another case of politicians trying to stay relevant

I didn’t say that you did, but then you went and projected that on to me, doing what you accused me of doing.

My reply wasn’t towards any one person. It was to those who automatically assume she’s lying or “delusional”, so therefore we shouldn’t believe her.

My point; Is it really that far fetched? No. Do we just take her word for it? Not necessarily. Bribery seems to have become normal in politics though. Isn’t lobbying a legal form of bribery? Lol

All I was doing was pointing to the other side of your pick one statement.
I was not accusing you of anything. Of course it’s not that far fetched given the state of politics. I just think it would certainly give her credibility is she showed actual prooof.

Think about the implications of her talking about who bribed her. She would need proof for litigation. if you accuse someone of doing something illegal, especially someone who's reputation is their career, and you don't have strong evidence, you will likely be prosecuted and charged. Imagine being bribed, in private, by very powerful people with lots of money. For instance, imagine if Soros, someone from the Biden regime, or someone from Hobbs team did the bribing. What's the likelihood the courts would be on your side? What's the likelihood someone would attempt to take your life? Keep in mind, Keri did have strong evidence of voter disenfranchisement, and she lost all of the cases so far. She does not have much faith in the justice system.

I guess I’m not very trusting of any politician and the words that come out of their mouth. Until I see proof this doesn’t do anything for me. Certainly not going to blame anyone for taking her word for it I guess

Great example of an absolute, which generally makes for terrible arguments. The only thing absolute, is that only God is absolute.

Do you believe that no one was/is threatened by Kari Lake? Do you believe that Hobbs was guaranteed to win, therefore no bribe was necessary? If you believe Hobbs was guaranteed to win, then you would have to admit there was fraud and illegal activity during the elections.

The bribe would not be like someone offering her a giant pile of money. They would offer her some sort of job, that would pay her the bribe, and say something like "Too bad you are busy. If you were not running for governor, you could come work for us".

Similar to politicians hiring their relatives as "campaign advisors" and paying them millions of the campaign donations.

Speculation? (which is why I said, "probably" and not a firm declaration).

Why would I speculate this?
a) Her own party's agenda does not align with hers
b) She did not appear to get any support from the GOP during her election attempt
c) All the 'malfunctions' in GOP areas that went against her favor was suspect
d) the GOP are known scumbags, cheaters, fraud and liars
e) Why isn't she naming them?
f) Why do the Democrats care?

Fair points. I can get on board with B, and we certainly have a lot of RINOs that would support both B and D (traitors to their party).

I think what we are seeing is similar to what we saw with the democrats. The party changed course, but kept the name because a third party wouldn’t last. For instance, more and more GOP are catching on that Libertarian values are becoming more and more popular among right wing voters. This really doesn’t go over well for establishment republicans.
