The Morning Ritual with Garret Lewis: Kari Lake on Soul of the Nation Speech, Grassroots Politicians Existential Threat to Dems Agenda

Live from Arizona Friday morning (Sept. 2) on The Morning Ritual with Garret Lewis – broadcast in Tucson weekday mornings on KNST AM 790  – host Lewis welcomed GOP nominee for governor of Arizona Kari Lake to the show to share her reaction to Joe Biden’s “soul of the nation” prime-time speech.

Lewis: Happy Friday! Joe Biden hates you. That’s pretty much all you need to know. But we did know that. But there’s more to it. Democrats have literally nothing to run on, so … they want you to get excited to vote against Trump. Not for them, against MAGA. Crazy.

Let’s jump right to Kari Lake, who is the front runner to be the next governor here in Arizona. Republican nominee, President Trump-supported. Kari, good morning. What was your reaction?

I saw your press conference, but what was your reaction when you’re sitting there watching Joe Biden – and you’re a TV person, you see this, like, crazy, dark, blood-red background, Marines back there. Dude looks like a freaking dictator. I don’t want to answer it for you, but what was your reaction to that?

Lake: It’s interesting you mentioned the Marines. I actually felt sorry for our servicemembers who had to stand there in that most despicable address to the nation I’ve ever seen a president deliver. I mean, it was shocking. It was as if he was declaring war on half of the people in this country.

Rather than trying to bring people together at a time in our history when we certainly are divided, he chose to do just the opposite and try to further drive a wedge between people who love this country…. (Excerpt from The Virginia Star)
