Former President Donald Trump reportedly directed aides to hire right-wing provocateur Laura Loomer for his presidential campaign. But after a backlash, he changed his mind, according to New York Times reporting.
Loomer, 29, who is Jewish, has twice run unsuccessfully for Congress. She has self-identified as a “proud Islamophobe.”
Greene, who has her own history of controversial statements, accused Loomer of associating with “alleged FBI informant and weirdo Nick Fuentes.” (Greene has also been said to have associated with Fuentes, although she has publicly denounced his racism and antisemitism.)
“Outrageous. Her defamatory talking points are in lockstep with the Democrats,” Loomer wrote of Greene on Twitter. “You’re a disloyal liar,” she added.
