It's hard not to picture Arizona gubernatorial dopeful Kari Lake sitting at a mall Chili's bar four years from now with the last soldier who doesn't know World War II is over and the most popular REO Speedwagon tribute band on MySpace as she whines and reminisces in equal measure about the good old days.  Lake remains in thrall to her delusions, including that she won her election in November and that Donald Trump is simply too stable and genius-y to have possibly lost in 2020. She is currently in court challenging her loss.
