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?

        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…

    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.

      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.

      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.

        'member when your dad/friends/strangers told you “don’t put your dick in crazy”? (for those of us with)

        there is way too much crazy in this scenario to even begin sorting it out. its literally a null in the universe. a divide by zero, if you will. shits so weird now we need an event horizon to hide this naked singularity.

          Ooo storytime: See I had been told it. The problem was I was young and didn’t know what crazy was.

          I didn’t recognize that having a father who wasnt home until after you went to bed, drank heavily, and didn’t do much but listen to music and watch TV was a very bad thing. I also apparently didn’t realize that “daddy issues” means “seeking a replacement father in someone significant and confusing my attachment with them and a parental figure.”

          Let this be a warning to all men: Never stick your dick in crazy.
