Jamie Harrison and Lara Trump's shared mission for RNC: prioritizing Trump's legal fees: Despite past differences, Harrison supports Lara Trump's RNC leadership, urging her to use funds for Trump's legal battles, contrasting Cohen's description of Lara's relationship with the Trump family.
Despite their past differences, Jamie Harrison and Lara Trump share a common mission for the RNC: prioritizing Donald Trump's legal fees over party infrastructure. Harrison expressed his strong support for Lara Trump's leadership, urging her to spend every penny of the RNC's funds on Trump's legal expenses. This unexpected agreement between the two, as shared on the Midas Touch podcast, contrasts with Michael Cohen's perspective on Lara Trump's relationship with the Trump family. Cohen described a long-standing dislike of Lara Trump by Donald Trump and his children, who made fun of her looks. However, Donald's opinion changed when he saw Lara on television and was impressed by her. Regardless of the circumstances, the RNC's funds may now be used to support Trump's legal battles, leaving some to question the legitimacy of Lara Trump's role as co-chair and the potential misallocation of party resources.
Republican Stances on Putin vs. Biden: Some Republicans express uncertainty about Putin's role in Navalny's death while Biden warns Putin not to expand beyond Ukraine. Reagan's 'tear down this wall' contrasts with some Republicans today seen as bowing to Putin, causing disillusionment among democratic supporters.
The contrast between the stance of some Republicans, like Lara Trump, on Russian leader Vladimir Putin and President Joe Biden's position could not be more clear. During a recent interview, Lara Trump expressed uncertainty about Putin's role in the death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny. In contrast, President Biden, during his State of the Union address, warned Putin not to expand beyond Ukraine and urged support for the country to defend itself. Previously, Republican President Ronald Reagan had famously challenged Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev to "tear down this wall." However, some Republicans today are seen as bowing down to Putin, with one former president reportedly telling Putin to "do whatever the hell you want." This shift away from a strong stance against Putin is concerning to some, leading some former conservative or Republican supporters to feel disillusioned and distanced from the party. It's important for those who value democracy and international leadership to come together and build a community that promotes normalcy and opposes the dangerous MAGA mutation.
