Lara Trump has attempted to paint Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris as unqualified for her position, but Trumps lack of self-awareness turned the attack into a massive self-own.
Trump, the Republican National Committee co-chair and daughter-in-law of GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump , claimed on a Wednesday episode of her Right View podcast that the former prosecutor and senator has failed upward her entire career.
She added that Joe Biden only selected Harris as his vice presidential running mate in 2020 based on how she looked, based on the fact that this is a woman, based on the fact that she was a minority woman.
Biden had said at the time that he chose Harris, who has Black and South Asian heritage, due to various factors, including her gender. He also said that he wanted someone who was ready to be president and had an important perspective on key issues.
On The Right View, Lara Trump said that gender being part of Bidens equation was really gross.
Im a woman. Do me a favor: Dont ever give me a position based on the fact that Im a woman, she said. Either I earned it, or I didnt! And thats it. Thats all I need.
