Former US Senator Kari Lake responded to Bill Clinton’s remarks at a protest in Phoenix on Thursday, calling her “physically beautiful.”
Lake, 55, quipped in reaction,” As a middle-aged lady, I’m flattered. I believed he might like me a little too much. Does n’t he like interns”?
The incident occurred at a rally with past president Donald Trump on the Tempe school of Arizona State University, according to the Arizona Republic.
Clinton had made comments on the high-stakes Arizona Senate contest between Lake and Democrat Rep. Ruben Gallego, who had supported Democratic candidate Kamala Harris.
Clinton compared the national election debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris in his target.
” You got a person that grew up under often challenging situation, who made something of his existence running against someone who is physically attractive, but believes that politics is a performance art, and where, like JD Vance, she has to be prostrate before the master”, Clinton said.
