Laura Loomer Is Turning Against MAGA Stalwarts
The Trump loyalist is fighting with Tucker Carlson, others as some White House officials have grown concerned about her influencePresident Trump confidante Laura Loomer has successfully campaigned for the ouster of more than a dozen national security officials and others she has accused of secretly working against the presidents Make America Great Again agenda.
Now she is training her considerable firepower inside the MAGA tent. In recent weeks, the right-wing conspiracy theorist has:
Gone after former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, dubbing him Tucker Qatarlson who is being bought off by the Muslim Brotherhood, and attacking his son who works for Vice President JD Vance;
Accused Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of funneling government money to her own daughter and called her a loud-mouthed bitch.

How this obviously mentally disturbed person could have so much influence on Trump's decisionmaking is truly scary.

(1,796 posts)"white trash". Is that term still used and understood? It may be a little hard to define precisely, but you know it when you see it. It is that neighbor that never cuts their grass or paints their house and usually has at least one car up on blocks in their front yard. Their kids are always getting in fights. Their daughters are pregnant by age 15. They do poorly in school because they have generations of a culture of non-achievement and always blame everyone else for all the problems of their own making. The police get called every month or two because of domestic issues. And more recently, they all have AK-47s. Virtually 100% of the clowns featured in the "On the scene with dumb asses at a Trump Rally" videos fit the white trash definition perfectly..
Of course, the puppet-masters are billionaires. They are plenty trashy in their own right, but they aren't the proverbial "white trash". Their election strategies are entirely dependent on the white trash vote and the christian nationalist vote.
The problem with these constituencies, especially the white trash element, is that you have to continue to be more and more like them every day, and more outrageous every day.
So, I'm not sure Loomer is against any of these people. She is just fighting for oxygen in the "big bag of rights."
