Bill Clinton calls Kari Lake ‘physically attractive’ while choosing Gallego

Former President Bill Clinton called Republican Senate candidate Kari Lake “physically attractive” during a campaign stop in Arizona to defeat Vice President Kamala Harris and Lake’s opponent, Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ).

Clinton made the comments as she pitted the two candidates against each other in the Arizona Senate race, in which Gallego and Lake are running to succeed Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ).

“You have a person who grew up under sometimes challenging circumstances, who has made something of their life competing against someone who is physically attractive, but believes that politics is a performance art, and from which they, like JD Vance, benefit must have. )ate for the master,” Clinton said.

Lake did not specifically respond to X regarding Clinton’s statements, although she did repost a statement criticizing the former president’s comment. Christy Kelly wrote on X that Clinton’s “sexist and dehumanizing commentary” relegated Lake to “a cheap stereotype.”

Clinton also made a comment about Harris being “extremely vulnerable” during his visit to Arizona, saying there is a “sliver” of voters who are undecided ahead of Election Day. He argued that Harris “showed up” to win these votes.

“I mean, she was there as vice president, and what they think of her depends largely on what they think of President Biden,” Clinton said. “But she is extremely vulnerable, more vulnerable than she deserves to be, from crazy attacks. So the Republicans have been thinking all along, ‘how can we go on the offensive?’”

Earlier this month, Clinton tried to link the death of Georgia college student Laken Riley to former President Donald Trump, but argued that her death “probably wouldn’t have happened” if all of the country’s illegal immigrants were “properly vetted.” were. Riley’s suspected killer, Jose Antonio Ibarra, crossed the border in September 2022 before being released into the United States.

During his most recent campaign stop, Clinton mocked Trump’s campaign for not participating in another debate against Harris despite “all their macho talk.” Since shortly after his first debate against Harris, Trump has insisted that there will be no new debate between him and the vice president.

Although it is unlikely that another debate will take place before Election Day, Harris did a town hall on CNN, although her performance at the event was criticized. Former Obama adviser David Axelrod suggested many of Harris’ answers were “word salad city.” The Washington Examiner Kaylee McGhee White argued that Harris was “beginning to sound like Donald Trump” when she emphasized the need for legal immigration.

With less than two weeks to go before the election, recent polls indicate that a handful of swing states in the Electoral College could be moving toward Trump. In addition to Arizona, North Carolina and Georgia were also among the states in this poll.
