Ex-Donald Trump aide warns what ‘sycophant’ Laura Loomer really wants from former President: ‘It makes me nervous…’
Sarah Matthews, a former press staffer for the ex-President in the White House, explained why Laura Loomer's close association with Donald Trump is “so scary”.
Amidst worries over Donald Trump's growing relationship with Laura Loomer, Sarah Matthews, a former press staffer for the ex-President in the White House, explained why the far-right provocateur's close association with GOP presidential candidate is “so scary”.
Speaking to MSNBC's Jen Psaki, Matthews described Loomer as “as fringe as fringe gets.” Loomer came to limelight recently after she joined Trump to both a 9/11 commemoration event and the first presidential debate against Democrat rival Kamala Harris.
The fact that Loomer now seems to be a part of Trump's inner circle is “really concerning,” Matthews stated, adding that she seems “willing to defend anything that he says or does and he likes that, she’s the ultimate sycophant.”
According to Matthews, Loomer is “clearly angling” for a position in the White House, possibly even as press secretary. “It's terrifying,” she remarked.
“It makes me nervous about what a potential staff for a second Trump term could look like,” she added.
