In the 2020 elections, Republicans put up candidates that hurt them, such as a smarmy ex-TV doctor. Daniel Marans is a senior reporter for the HuffPost.

Some members of her own party couldn't be happier after she lost her bid for governor.

Lake made fun of anti-Trump Rep. Liz Cheney for endorsing her Democratic opponent.

Cheney gave the favor to Lake after the race was called.

In fact, Cheney was not the only one.

Lake told her supporters to get the hell out of John McCain, a Republican who was popular on both sides of the aisle in Congress.

CNN's Kyungh Lah was reporting.

An Arizona Republican strategist texted me this tonight: “Kari Lake told a legion of John McCain supporters across Arizona that they could go to hell. Tonight, they returned the favor.” @KariLake

Others on the right joined the celebration.

Startting to sound like the Deep State Illuminati Pizzagate Lizard Alien Space Laser Overlords stole the election from Kari Lake.

And by Deep State Illuminati Pizzagate Lizard Alien Space Laser Overlords, I mean "Arizona voters" who saw through her nonsense.
