Kari Lake secured the Republican nomination for US Senate in Arizona on Tuesday, her convincing primary win fueled by Donald Trump’s endorsement. But according to a new book, Trump has regularly mocked Lake over how fervently she advances his election fraud lie.
“Lake’s commitment to talking about fraud in the 2020 election would make even Trump laugh at times,” Meridith McGraw of Politico writes in Trump in Exile, an account of the former president turned presidential nominee’s years since leaving power. The book is due out in the US next week; the Guardian obtained a copy.
