Trump's taunt of John McCain reads like trouble for Kari Lake

Opinion by Laurie Roberts, Arizona Republic

Donald Trump took a potshot at John McCain on Saturday, mocking the late senator who has been in his grave for five years now.

I picture McCain laughing his head off, to be living still in the ex-president’s head.

I picture Democratic Senate hopeful Ruben Gallego writing a thank-you note.

And his Republican opponent, Kari Lake? I picture her tugging with all her might at that infamous stake she drove into the heart of the “McCain machine” in 2022 — only to watch as her mentor drove it all the deeper over the weekend.

She's having trouble raising money, and not getting a lot of traction. It's a problem when you have no real experience in life to speak of, except sitting in front of a camera reading from a prepared script. I've heard conservative friends of mine describe her speeches as sitting and listening to a foghorn droning on.

She's making it easy for Biden to carry Arizona again, and paving a path for Ruben Gallego into the senate. Sinema won't even be a factor, except to take away Lake votes.
