It was previously reported that the former president became annoyed with Lake because she was causing him problems with his wife Melania because of her constant presence at his Mar-a-Lago resort.

As the report notes, the race to fill the seat being vacated by Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) is one of the most closely watched in the 2024 election and Lake, a political novice with one failed bid for statewide office in 2022, is expected to face
