Not Even Fox Is Buying Lara Trump's Theory For Why Harris Lost The Election

After Lara Trump claimed it was Kamala Harris's "mudlinging" against Trump that lost her the election, Fox's Howie Kurtz gave her a reality check.

After Republican National Committee co-chair Lara Trump claimed it was Vice President Kamala Harris's "mudslinging" against President-elect Donald Trump that lost her the election, Fox News host Howie Kurtz gave her a much-needed reality check.

Lara Trump—the wife of Trump's son Eric—said the following with no trace of irony, completely overlooking her father-in-law's long history of attacking his critics and all the insults he directed toward Harris:


"They got to the level of just insulting people and trying to harass people into voting for them, that's kind of when you lose the American public. When people say, 'I don't want to be insulted into voting for someone, I want to actually look at how this person can make my life better. ... that's what Donald Trump did."
“I think when they got to the point of constant mudslinging and not really talking about what they do for the American people, I think that’s what lost them the election."

Kurtz then pointed out the obvious:

“But couldn‘t Democrats say the same because during the campaign Trump called the vice president ‘dumb,’ cursed her at one point, and questioned her racial identity?”

But Lara Trump, unmoved, said:

“Well, I think whenever you see Donald Trump say things like this, this is not out of character for him, this is who he’s always been."

You can watch their exchange in the video below.

People criticized her for her remarks.



Lara Trump went on to state that "a lot of Americans agreed with Donald Trump’s assessment" of the Biden administration and did not respond to Kurtz's point that it's one thing to criticize people's policies and another to attack them directly, as Trump often did with Harris.

She interrupted Kurtz entirely, saying that one has "got to question someone’s intelligence if they’re doing these things, quite frankly," doubling down on her belief that her father-in-law's hostile and inflammatory behavior is completely justified.

They just simply have an entirely different standard of behavior for Trump than they have for Democrats. And they're not even pretending.

Elon Musk Schooled After Comparing Obama-Era Democrats To Far-Right German Party

Billionaire Elon Musk was criritized after he attempted to equate the far-right Alternative for Deutschland (AfD) party to Democrats at the beginning of Barack Obama's presidency, and was swiftly fact-checked—even by X's own AI chatbot.

Afd is known for its opposition to the European Union (EU) and immigration to Germany. The party presented itself as an economic liberal, soft Euroskeptic and conservative movement upon its establishment in 2013 but has since moved further to the right, expanding its policies under successive leaderships to include opposition to immigration, Islam, and the EU.
