Lara Trump, President Trump's daughter-in-law, isn't just hitting the campaign trail on his behalf — on Tuesday, she attended an event in
Florida with far-right
Republican congressional candidate Laura Loomer, a self-described "proud Islamophobe" known for publicity stunts like chaining herself to the doors of Twitter's
New York City headquarters, standing there for two hours, and then asking the NYPD to cut her free.Loomer is heavily into conspiracy theories and was banned from
Twitter and
Facebook for making anti-Muslim remarks. She is the GOP nominee in Florida's 21st Congressional District, which is considered a safe
Democratic seat.Courtney Parella, the Trump campaign's deputy national press secretary, tweeted on Wednesday morning photos of Lara Trump with Loomer and supporters holding up pro-Trump and pro-Loomer signs. In a statement to
USA Today, the
Trump campaign said Lara Trump made several stops that day, and Loomer just happened to be at one of them.
