(16,785 posts)Democrats need a strong and focused candidate who can run circles atound Lara Trump. Jamie Harrison is probably working on that already.
If that candidate is African -American with an impressive resume, it could be a landslide. I think Americans want to separate themselves from Trump.

(13,069 posts)He must be so compromised, and at risk of prison, that he is willing to give his soul--and life to Trump. What power Trump has over him. Does he not see that he is a laughing stock? And how the hell does he continue to get reelected?

Any political aspirations she had died on January 6th. Lindsey knows this and is just being a dick and an ass-kisser.

According to a permit filed with the town of Palm Beach, Florida, Big Dog Ranch Rescue estimates it will spend $225,000 at the club where Donald Trump has taken up full-time residence since leaving the White House. All the profit from that spending winds up in his pocket.
Internal Revenue Service filings show that the group has spent as much as $1,883,160 on fundraising costs at Mar-a-Lago and Trumps golf course 18 miles north in Jupiter starting in 2014. Lara Trump, the wife of Eric Trump, started being listed as a chairwoman for charity events in 2018, and the groups president, Lauren Simmons, visited the White House in 2019 for the signing of a bill addressing animal cruelty......
Daughter-in-law Lara Trump has been advertised as a chairwoman of the charitys fundraisers over the past several years. The spending by a charity she is associated with at her familys businesses mirrors practices at Donald Trumps now-shuttered Trump Foundation and Eric Trumps Eric Trump Foundation, which also spent donor money at Trump properties.
The self-dealing by the Trump Foundation was so egregious that New York state Attorney General Letitia James cited it as the reason the charity could no longer operate.
Donald Trump over the course of his presidency funneled $8.5 million of Republican donor money into his own cash registers by directing spending by the entities he controlled, including the Republican National Committee, toward his own businesses. He similarly directed several million taxpayer dollars into his own properties by insisting on spending his frequent golf vacations there, thereby forcing Secret Service and other support staff to spend money at them, as well.
