Far-right commentator Laura Loomer is going on an anti-Republican tirade after reportedly being banned from traveling with former President Donald Trump.

The conspiracy theorist, who traveled with Trump to his recent presidential debate before appearing at a 9/11 event, stirred anger among Republicans who feel her presence is a detriment to the campaign.

Trump initially responded to the backlash by telling reporters that he “didn’t control Laura,” dubbing her a “free spirit.”

But with Loomer seemingly unable to keep her outrageous and offensive remarks to herself—and with Trump reportedly receiving numerous phone calls from concerned advisors and donors—the far-right provocateur, according to the Washington Post, was ultimately barred from regularly traveling with Trump.

Not only that, Trump is said to have privately described Loomer as “crazy” to those close to him.

    Don’t be fooled. If Trump gets elected, she’s getting a cabinet position and all GOP lackeys will fall in line. We have seen this movie in 2017. Mark my words.

          I was getting my PSTD eval at the VA, and they asked me to not focus on everything, just some of the worst things. “We could take a break if needed”

          With a perfectly straight face I said “the breakfast egg MRE”, and the sergeant major on the board just lost his shit.

            Kinda reminds me of how Zack Hazard says he doesnt have PTSD from being mortared in Iraq but instead has PTSD from Fort Polk. I aint military but I know history and I swear to fuck that god forsaken base pops up way too often in journals and incident reports.

      Melania is heartbroken over this.

      If Loomer had managed to get a ring Melania’s pre-nup would have kicked in and she’s be rolling in it.

      One source–a very questionable source–is claiming an affair and/or oral sex. I think that any candidate under that much scrutiny would be an idiot if they had a sexual affair while on the campaign trail, but this is Trump we’re talking about. He’s not exactly known for having good impulse control.

        We already know the candidate is an idiot, so by the transitive property, he hit it and quit it as soon as the heat turned on.

          No idea, TBH, but I know that Newt Gingritch divorced his wife as she was fighting breast cancer.

          Some people are just really scummy. Like, at least let the body get cold first.

      Don’t know what you’re celebrating, the more time he spends with her the better as she’s both terrible and unpopular.

            That reminds me of the attitude a lot of Democrats had during 2016 primaries about Trump. “He’s such a horrible candidate, Clinton will definitely win against him. Let’s make sure he wins the primary.”

            The Republican Party doesn’t have an OST. Musicians keep suing them for using their songs.

            That’s a strat people have? Pretty risky. I actually always vote for my favorite candidate on the other side of the aisle in the primaries. Last time I voted for Tusli Gabbard.

      Holy, that’s who she reminds me of in some of those pics! I don’t usually want to comment on people’s appearances, but for a party that seems to constantly whip up anti-trans hysteria, she has a rather manly appearance…
