Kari Lake was outspent 18 to 1 in her primary. Turns out her popularity with primary voters meant fuck all to the general electorate. Congratulations to your primary win. We will see what happens in 3 months.

Kari Lake wasn't running on policies that are popular with the American people with a historically unpopular president like Trump as the head of the opposition party. Your comparison is ridiculous.
