(Snip)
Liam Bartlett asked Lake about Donald Trump saying that he would pardon those who participated in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Well, that really has nothing to do with being Governor of Arizona. I wasnt there," she replied.
"Let's be fair on this. Your man, Donald your man, Donald, brought it up," speaking to the fact that Trump was part of the GOP and had endorsed Lake. He noted that Trump said that the 2020 election was a lie. She took offense to that.

Why did you say that, sir? Your man, Donald? she asked. He explained that Trump is a Republican leader. She has declared herself part of the Republican Party.

Watched it, made me giggle.
Australians are born with a big supply of cynicism and really good BS detectors. And they go off REAL LOUD!

It's really worth watching, if you want to see a Republican make a fool of herself!
My favorite part was when she lectured the Australian interviewer about how Australians have no rights and Australia needs more guns. Because what could be more presumptuous than telling someone from another country all the things that you think are wrong with their country!
Very cringeworthy, though. I hope Australians do know we're not all like that!
