(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) Former President Bill Clinton recently called Arizona Republican Senate candidate Kari Lake “physically attractive” while trying to promote her political opponent, Rep. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz.
“This is like a beautiful microcosm of the campaign that Kamala Harris is running for president,” Clinton said. “You got a person [Gallego] that grew up under sometimes challenging circumstances, who made something of his life, running against someone [Lake] who is physically attractive but believes that politics is a performance art.”
Bill Clinton refers to Kari Lake as, ‘someone who is physically attractive,’ according to the New York Post.
Protect Kari Lake at all costs.

The New York Post reported that Clinton also said at a different campaign event in Arizona that the Republicans’ attacks have left Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris “extremely vulnerable.”
“More vulnerable than she deserves to be through crazy attacks,” he said.
Lake responded to the recent Clinton’s remarks the next day at her rally.
“I woke up to this news this morning. First of all, you know what, as a middle-aged woman, I’m flattered, okay? I don’t get those kinds of compliments every day. Two – I thought I was a little too old for him. Doesn’t he like interns? Three, I’m happily married to my husband, Jeff, who’s right down here. The love of my life. And four – nobody in their right mind wants to cross Hillary Clinton. It’s just dangerous,” she said.
