Laura Loomer insists she and Donald Trump are very close.

While Donald Trump’s allies have tried to create the illusion of distance between the Republican presidential nominee and Laura Loomer, the alt-right conspiracy theorist has continued to cozy up to him, going so far as to brag over the weekend that Trump “likes” and “trusts” her.

“The media is full of shit. OK?” Loomer said on her podcast, ​​Loomer Unleashed, on Saturday. “These people are liars. They are con artists, and all they do is lie. They are running a coordinated smear campaign because I am effective. Donald Trump likes me. Donald Trump trusts me. OK?

I didn’t know who this person was two weeks ago and I still don’t want to know. We can just all ignore her forever if we want.

Edit: to be clear, I said I don’t want to know who she is. Do not tell me who this person is. I don’t care if she’s challenging Nancy Reagan for the throat GOAT title. Not interested.

Ignoring a boil can have dire consequences like where we find or selves now. Best to lance this now before it gets worse.

I was going to say Vance it but couldn’t figure out how sucking all the air out if the room would be effective in treating a boil?..

The same voters who are tuned off by Project 2025 are also going to be less than thrilled about the idea of a presidential candidate literally being in bed with a deranged conspiracy theorist.

So yes, more media exposure would be the answer. Get her views out there; the whole thing, unedited. Show people the horrific things she believes.

Remember like five years ago when some loudmouth idiot got banned from every ridesharing app for complaining on twitter that there weren’t any white drivers in New York?

Pretty sure that was her.

Then she chained herself to twitter hq when they blocked her account. She only blocked one door, so her protest didn’t work. Then she pissed herself, and the cops had to cut her free.

Her plastic surgeon billed himself as “the pro-Trump plastic surgeon”, which explains how she looks like she does. No lie, he later lost his NY medical license.

She looks like she’s trying to take up the mantle of those French astrophysicist twins that swore up and down that they never had cosmetic surgery.

Time to strap in

Time to stock up on 1:1 CBD:THC edibles and renew the xanax prescription. Otherwise, my liver will never survive the next 4-5 months…

Immediately after that, we have the mid-term elections in two years!

Why the fuck do we even still have lame duck sessions after presidential elections anyway? I imagine any reason we initially had a delay between election and inauguration has been mitigated through technology. Maybe it doesn’t need to happen immediately, but ~3 months is completely unnecessary.

There is supposed to be communication and coordination between the outgoing administration and incoming one. Since they don’t know if they are going to be elected they can’t really have the structure drawn up as it does depend on availability and such. Unfortunately one party does not like the whole communication and coordination thing going bothways and often stymies it.

“The media is full of shit. OK?” Loomer said

Given the stories about what Trump’s staffers say about his BO, she knows shit. Up close and personal.
