“A recent chance encounter there between bitter 2024 campaign rivals, however, reveals how the overheated political climate is becoming less and less hospitable to cross-partisan bonhomie, particularly when immigration is a chief concern,” The Bulwark reports.
“As Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) headed toward the elevator to leave on a recent late-winter day, he ran into his former opponent, the infamous Trump acolyte Kari Lake. As Gallego went for a handshake, Lake accepted it with both hands—a gesture that usually accompanies a warm greeting. What she said was anything but that.”
Said Lake: “How does it feel to be bought and paid for by the cartels?”
“Gallego was taken aback, according to a person familiar with the exchange.”
