WASHINGTON — Twice-failed Republican candidate Kari Lake fled from reporters asking questions after she trashed the media in her speech to CPAC.

Lake took the stage on Friday and then went down "Radio Row," the row of media tables set up for interviews with conference attendees.

She went from speaking to the pro-Donald Trump conspiracy website, the Epoch Times, to the British tabloid Daily Mail.

Lake spoke with Raw Story reporters on the ground, who asked politely, “How are you, ma’am?”

“Good, thank you,” she replied.

"What do you think Trump needs to do to prevent a repeat of 2020," Raw Story asked. Lake's speech to CPAC continued promoting the false conspiracy that Trump won the 2020 election.

That's when she raced away from questions.

"Kari! Kari!" reporters yelled after her.
