Former President Donald Trump defended his relationship with far-right activist Laura Loomer, who has made inflammatory and baseless remarks about immigrants and other groups, drawing criticism from lawmakers across the political spectrum.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle blasted Loomer this week after she attended the debate and a Sept. 11 memorial event with Trump .
Loomer's relationship with Trump came under particular scrutiny after the former president mentioned a conspiracy theory about immigrants eating pets during a debate with Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday. In another post, Loomer alleged that the"White House will smell like curry & White House speeches will be facilitated via a call center" if Harris wins the presidential election.
