"81 million voters fired Donald Trump in 2020, and he's still having trouble processing that!"

Early voting can prevent unwanted precidency. 💞💙
Vote blue ballot down 💞💙

You know it’s bad when MTG calls someone racist.

[simmzzzz]

He's feelin her up lke she's his own daughter

[grishawinner]

“Laura Who? I don’t even know her. I’ve never seen her, I’m being told she’s a horrible person but I don’t know, they also say she likes me. And if she likes me, she most be a good person. Anyway, we are winning in the winningest way possible, I just can’t stop winning, Infact I’m tired of winning.”

Loomer has been described as trump's battery.
Don't even think about where his charging port is.

[jamese]

This is a glimpse of the type of cabinets members he will chose if he elected vote blue

[maryk]

He loves his ego being stroked by any younger woman ( no matter how loony).

[goodshipkaraboudjan]

Trump is not only losing his mind he's losing his eyesight.

[lynconner]

Ever picture of them together he is either hugging, kissing or has his hands on her. Get a clue, she is into to him and he can be manipulated by anyone that strokes... his ego or any other part of him.

[timfahey]

We ALL know what Loomers "role" is in the campaign. Gross!

[DeeL-uc]

She is closer to him in photos than his own wife.

[simmzzzz]

PLEASE VOTE BLUE THIS NOVEMBER! 💙💙🌊🌊

We can't let the loonies take over...

[leonroelants]

I think there is far more to this relationship than politics. Just look at the touchy feely photos.

[teizen]

This is what VP Harris warned us about Trump, that he is easy to manipulate. Laura Loomer is pulling his strings like a puppet.

[dianneroland]

She's cozying up to him like a foreign operative, someone needs to dig into her background and finances.

[janetseidlitz]

She's auditioning for first lady. No woman gets that close to a man that is not interested in him in that way.

[bigdee-ds]

20th century has it's Eva Braun, so it's apropos our 21st century has it's Laura Loomer.

[ReadMoreHistory-vu]

If Trump can be “influenced” by Laura Loomer, then what do you think Putin has and WILL continue to do to Trump? He’s the biggest national security threat we face.

[Deb-ator]

How do these ridiculous people get involved in American politics. American politics and politicians are losing all credibility.
