Originally published at: Kari Lake Quietly Settles Defamation Lawsuit And Accepts Defeat In Wake Of Trump Win - TPM – Talking Points Memo

Kari Lake, who has been one of the most prominent faces of the “Stop the Steal” movement the last four years, has been uncharacteristically quiet about her recent Senate race loss. In a bizarre video last week, Lake did not question the results of the election she lost to Democratic Senator-elect Ruben Gallego, but she…

Maybe she will finally go away.

If only [sigh]

She is a good fit for the Trump kakistocracy and a place will be found for her.

With her sweet, sweet memories.

Why should she spend all that money she raised for “defending the truth” and stuff, when she could just put it in her greasy pockets?

Dare we hope? I see where Palin has reared up once again, so it seems impossible to expect these bimbos to fade away with any grace.

Some speculate that Lake is privately preparing for the possibility of serving in the Trump administration in some capacity, and any sort of election denial activity or ongoing defamation litigation could jeopardize her chances of landing a role in the administration.

I thought being involved in such litigation was a requirement, not a liability.

Kari Lake won’t get hired by Donald Trump.

She, she was loyal, and rabid, and litigious. Definite hat trick there.

But, she’s a three time loser. Trump likes winners, like Dr. Oz, or Elon Musk, and Matt Gaetz. Losers like Kari Lake? Not his thing.

Kari Lake is Donald Trump’s Eddie Haskell, a smarmy loser.

That’s what I thought about Trump in 2021.

Well, there is the little matter that Oz lost the Senate race to John Fetterman in 2022. But hey, I guess for Trump, “LOOKS GOOD ON TV” cancels out that loss.

That would be glorious but she is now an unemployed loudmouth. I’ve wondered why she left a high paying gig at the Phoenix Fox station as one of their talking heads. Did she rub folk the wrong way? Was she “shown the door”? I don’t know. But she chose politics and to whine as loudly as she could. I bet she’s hoping trump will remember her.

“You will never stop mattering to me. These memories that we made together will never go away, they will grow sweeter over time.”

Ever see ‘Misery’ with Kathy Bates? I’m pretty sure she gives this speech just before breaking James Caan’s ankles.

The comparison to “Misery” is so perfect!

I think she’s just taking a breath and will be back causing trouble. She is just such a worthless POS. I don’t understand how anyone can take her seriously or stand being in the same room with her. I think even my maga brother-in-law would be repelled by her. Therefore, she will be perfect for the new maladministration.

Kari Lake will always be the ultimate pick-me for her intentional photoshoot vacuuming The Rump’s red carpet before his 2016 rally in Phoenix. What’s the term for a pick-me who tries too hard and therefore doesn’t get picked?
