Fox News' Brit Hume Puts Lara Trump On Blast Over 'Stupid' Campaign Move
HuffPost
This move could destroy the GOP's chances of control over the Senate, he warned.
Longtime Fox News analyst Brit Hume called out Republican National Committee co-chair Lara Trump for attacking one of her party’s own candidates for not being loyal enough to her father-in-law, Donald Trump.
“It’s political malpractice,” Hume said on Monday after Lara Trump slammed Larry Hogan, the popular former Republican governor of Maryland who is now running for Senate.
Hogan issued a statement before Donald Trump’s verdict last week calling on all Americans to “to respect the verdict and the legal process,” regardless of the outcome.
Lara Trump fired back by saying Hogan “doesn’t deserve the respect of anyone in the Republican Party at this point, and quite frankly anybody in America.”
But Hume said Hogan is giving the GOP the best shot it’s had in a long time in Maryland, which hasn’t sent a Republican to the Senate in decades.
