I think at least half of the GOP would like it if Lara Trump started using those DSLs to earn some extra cash.

It always pissed me off that Tammy Faye got her image rehabilitated just because she became an ally for queer people. Don’t get me wrong, queer people need as many allies as they can get, but what about everything else? I remember that fucker crying on camera about how terribly her poor, poor husband was being treated.

I mean you can watch the Nightline interview where she starts bawling about her husband’s so-called mistreatment. It’s on YouTube.

And he’s still around and still grifting.

He’s been selling “survival buckets” of so-called food as part of the ministry he’s still allowed to have somehow for over a decade now.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


But she said she thought the idea would get broad support among GOP voters who see his legal cases as political persecution.

In addition to the millions he is spending on lawyers, Trump’s legal debts now top half a billion dollars.

That did not stop him last week from publicly calling to remove the RNC’s current leaders and suggest Lara Trump should serve as co-chair.

She told reporters on Wednesday that GOP voters will feel more trust in the RNC by having a Trump family member installed in leadership.

Those causes were electing Trump president in November, growing the Republican majority in the House with “patriots, America first candidates” and winning back control of the Senate, she said.

Lara Trump said if she is made co-chair of the RNC, her loyalty would be to her father-in-law, but she believed the organization would stick to its policy of staying neutral in primary contests, saying, “I don’t know why we would change course on that now.”


The original article contains 638 words, the summary contains 164 words. Saved 74%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

While it would be great to bleed the RNC dry, part of the problem is how much free publicity the media gives this guy.

In 2020, they gave him a ridiculous amount of free attention.

It doesn’t matter. Minds were made up long ago on Trump himself, it’s even literally a rematch.

Trump can drain the RNC dry, with any luck they lose Congress seats by being outspent.
