Kari Lake, the GOP’s failed gubernatorial nominee, was mocked Tuesday for telling a story that critics suggested sounded like something former President Donald Trump would say.
Lake claimed on Twitter that a UPS delivery driver “just told us he was ‘devastated’ that they ‘stole another election’ and asked how he could help.”

Former news anchor Lake pushed Trump’s 2020 election lies ahead of the 2022 midterm elections and has followed many of his same playbook, baseless allegations of voter fraud since her defeat by Democrat Katie Hobbs. Trump heavily supported Lake in the vote.
