>Two of Trump’s loudest and heavily plastic surgeoned supporters went to war with each other as the blame game over the debate disaster heats up.https://www.thedailybeast.com/maga-civil-war-erupts-as-laura-loomer-and-mtg-trade-blows-in-publicA massive rift within former President Donald Trump’s inner circle exploded into the open Wednesday night, exposing tensions running high inside MAGAworld after their candidate’s debate disaster.
Two of Trump's most trusted allies went for each other in a spectacular and public spat after it emerged that far-right commentator Laura Loomer had accompanied Trump on a private plane to the debate.
Axios reported on Thursday that Loomer had been “egging him on” during the flight after his other advisors urged caution and tried to convince Trump to stick to messages on key voter concerns like the economy instead of pushing old grievances and sharing easily debunked conspiracies such as Haitian immigrants eating people’s pets.
Trump appeared to take Loomer’s advice and turned in a fiasco of a performance marred by one rambling diatribe after another. A day later, Republican House Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene chose to jump on a three-day-old Loomer post and kick-start a civil war.
Greene excoriated Loomer on Twitter for an “extremely racist” message she posted about Vice President Kamala Harris.
In the Sept. 8 tweet, which quoted a post by Harris celebrating her South Asian background, Loomer wrote that if the Vice President wins the election “the White House will smell like curry & White House speeches will be facilitated via a call center and the American people will only be able to convey their feedback through a customer satisfaction survey at the end of the call that nobody will understand.”
Three days later, the day after the debate, Loomer—a 9/11 conspiracist—accompanied Trump to Wednesday’s solemn memorial ceremonies in New York City and Pennsylvania.
