Laura Loomer: The controversial campaigner that even Trump has been forced to distance himself from

Must read

What appears certain is that Ms Loomer has become increasingly close to Mr Trump’s campaign, and was seen departing his plane when he landed in Philadelphia for Tuesday’s debate.

She was seen with other members of the campaign team and was in the media “spin room” afterwards.

Her presence comes just weeks after several former campaign staff from 2016 and 2020, have returned to his campaign team. Among them is former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, best known for telling colleagues: “Let Trump be Trump.”

Loomer insists 9/11 was an inside job

The day after the debate Ms Loomer, joined Mr Trump in New York and Pennsylvania as he and others commemorated the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks even though last year she had posted on social media that 9/11 was an “inside job”.

“HAPPENING NOW: President Trump just visited the Shanksville Fire Department after visiting the memorial site of United Flight 93 and meeting with family members of 9/11 terrorist attack victims in Shanksville, Pennsylvania,” she posted on X on Wednesday afternoon. “NEVER FORGET!”

Some of the 9/11 survivors and people who lost loved ones that day questioned her presence.

“It’s baffling to me that anyone within Trump’s orbit would believe the “inside job” theory when Trump himself declared that Saudi Arabia was responsible for the attacks of 9/11,” Sharon Premoli, who on the 80th floor of the North Tower when it was struck but somehow survived, told The Telegraph.

“If Laura Loomer has unambiguous and indisputable proof of this old conspiracy theory that has never been proven thus far, the public would like to see it.”

Ms Loomer has also posted false claims about Haitian migrants in Ohio eating family pets.

Mr Trump repeated the allegation himself during the debate, something that triggered alarm from his allies and led the moderators to say there was no evidence to support the claims.
