June 14, 2024
As RNC co-chair and extreme election denier Lara Trump speaks at the Turning Point Action conference in Michigan, DNC Rapid Response Director Alex Floyd released the following statement:
“Lara Trump is a self-described ‘ultra-MAGA’ extremist who has proved herself to be a dangerous election denier hellbent on carrying water for Donald Trump’s attacks on our democracy. Lara Trump’s tenure so far at the RNC has included baseless election denial falsehoods, anti-democracy litmus tests, and attempts to undermine our elections – the American people see right through her lies and extremism and will make everyone in Donald Trump’s MAGA GOP a loser this November.”
Donald Trump elevated notorious election deniers Lara Trump and Michael Whatley to lead the RNC as part of his MAGA takeover.
