Kari Lake, the GOP’s failed Arizona gubernatorial candidate, was mocked on Tuesday for telling a story that critics suggested sounded just like something former President Donald Trump would say.
Lake claimed on Twitter that a UPS delivery driver “just told us he is ‘devastated’ that they ‘stole another election’ and asked how he could help.”
“The Fake News may spin it… Officials behind the Sham Election may lie… But Arizonans get it,” she added. “They know our Elections are a joke.”
Former news anchor Lake pushed Trump’s 2020 election lies before the 2022 midterms and has followed much of his same playbook, baselessly alleging voter fraud, since her defeat to Democrat Katie Hobbs. Trump heavily backed Lake in the election.

The Fake News may spin it...
Officials behind the Sham Election may lie...
But Arizonans get it.

“Sounds like a typical Trumpian fairy tale,” wrote one person on Twitter.
Others agreed:
Big strong UPS guy, really macho, macho guy, came running up and said he never ever cries, oh, please sign here, he never cries but he has cried so strongly and so muchly over the Stolen Election which was definitely Stolen because of Reasons and he was so so so sad.

This tweet by @KariLake gave me a marvelous idea!
"Hey kids, I bought you the best most expensive #Christmas presents, but the @UPS packages were stolen!"
(btw, Arizonans do get it. That's why she's not the Governor) https://t.co/fnfQdl2k8E— Jaime Casap (@jcasap) December 14, 2022
Of all the things that never happened. This never happened the most.

Sounds a lot like another version of the tired “This person came up to me with tears in their eyes/hugged me/people are saying” trope.

My local FedEx driver felt you lost because of no political experience and the Trump endorsement pushing away moderate Republicans.
I’ll see what my DoorDasher says if i order out tonight for dinner. 😂😂— Andrew Nordmeier (@AndrewNordmeier) December 13, 2022

That is interesting. My UPS guy didn't mention the election to me, he just did his job and delivered my packages. Maybe you should do the same.
