Kari Lake Schooled After Claiming A Whopping 300 Million Americans 'Support President Trump'

If the failed GOP Arizona gubernatorial candidate's claim on Real America's Voice is correct, that would mean 90% of Americans support Trump.

Failed Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake has drawn criticism for making exaggerated claims about support for former President Donald Trump.

Lake claimed 300 million Americans support the twice impeached, now indicted ex-President.


During an appearance on Steve Bannon's War Room podcast, Lake made far-fetched statements regarding Trump's recent indictment on federal charges of stealing classified documents and the level of public backlash that would allegedly ensue.

You can hear what Lake said in the video below.

Her assertions—widely regarded as absurd and mathematically inaccurate—generated a strong response on social media platforms.

Lake's attempt to drum up support for Trump involved stating if prosecutors wanted to target the former President, they would have to go "through" her and the 75 million Americans who supported Trump and were members of the National Rifle Association (NRA).

However, she further inflated her claims on the podcast by suggesting around 90 percent of the United States population, approximately 300 million people, would protest Trump's indictment for taking, hiding and lying about top-secret documents moved to Mar-a-Lago upon his leaving the White House.

Lake said:

“If they think they are going to hurt, lay a finger on our president ― President Trump ― they’re going to have to come through me."
"And I made a mistake, I said 75 million others just like me. I think it’s more like 300 million others just like me.”

Lake's exaggerated claims and flawed mathematics did not go unnoticed by Twitter users who mocked her profusely. People took the opportunity to point out the implausibility of her assertions.

Many provided humorous and critical responses to her statements.








In his initial appearance before the court in Miami, Trump entered a plea of not guilty in the federal case brought against him.

Prior to the hearing, law enforcement officials booked him in connection with the alleged concealing of highly classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate and resort club. Furthermore, he is accused of lying and obstructing federal officials during their attempts to retrieve the said documents.

It marks the first instance in which a former President has faced federal charges. Trump, currently engaged in another presidential campaign, asserts that the prosecution initiated by the Justice Department is driven by political motives.

In anticipation of Trump's presence in federal court, both federal and local authorities heightened security measures while his supporters staged small demonstrations outside the courthouse.

'Based On A True Story' Movies That Aren't True At All

The entertainment industry has long been criticized for their creative license when it comes to retelling history or anything "based on a true story."

Going back to the silent film era and D.W. Griffith's ridiculously inaccurate White supremacist propaganda Birth Of A Nation to Mel Gibson's Braveheart to Disney's Pocahontas, some films go way beyond creative license and careen into total malarkey.

Musk's AI Chatbot Throws Republicans Under The Bus After Being Asked About Economy

Grok, billionaire Elon Musk's very own chatbot, threw Republicans under the bus after software engineer Alex Coke asked it if Democrats or Republicans have been better for the economy in the past 30 years, only for it to answer that yes, in fact, Democrats are the winners when it comes to economic policy.

Economic policy is certainly on everyone's minds these days. A new CNN poll conducted by SSRS shows that Americans are not pleased with President Donald Trump’s management of the economy, leaving him with unfavorable ratings on what is considered the nation’s most important issue.

CNN Airs Brutal Reminder Of Trump's Previous Economic Predictions—And They Did Not Age Well

CNN came with the receipts, airing a supercut of clips from 2020 and 2024 of President Donald Trump making hilariously wrong economic predictions—a damning reel of evidence as financial markets decline and investor concerns grow over Trump’s trade policies.

In fact, Trump’s escalating trade war pushed the S&P 500 more than 10% below its record high set just last month. A drop of this size is significant enough that professional investors call it a “correction,” and the S&P 500’s 1.4% decline on Thursday marked its first since 2023.
