'She's a phony' - Political ad knocks GOP candidate Kari Lake over her drag queen controversy

 

 Arizona GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake used to claim to be a friend of the LGBTQ community and a fan of drag queens. But since announcing her candidacy, Ms. Lake has made a 90 degree turn, even so much as to amplify the lie that drag queens are trying to "indoctrinate" or "groom" children. 

That didn't go unanswered. Lake was called out by a former friend and a drag queen, Richard Stevens, who came with receipts. And this political ad courtesy of The American Focus PAC calls attention to Lake's particular hypocrisy in that area. As well as general changes in her political position. 

Editor's note - I don't know if the American Focus PAC is a left-wing or right-wing group. If it's right-wing, I say let them fight and enjoy it.
