Former Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) told reporters during Donald Trump’s visit to Minnesota that she is now advising Trump on foreign policy matters.
The former congresswoman who made a name for herself as a conservative ideologue and once falsely accused Clinton’s adviser Huma Abedin of having family members affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood told Minnesota Public Radio that she was backing and advising Trump because he understood the threat of “radical Islam.”
“He also recognizes there is a threat around the world, not just here
in Minnesota, of radical Islam,” Bachmann told MPR. “I wish our President Obama also understood the threat of radical Islam and took it seriously.”
When she was in Congress, Bachmann visited the Middle East several times and on occasion sent messages to foreign governments that directly conflicted with the Obama administration’s position.
Bachmann was already advising Trump on evangelical voter outreach.
The TPM headline writers are having WAY too much fun this election cycle
Has he fellated Fallwell in public yet?
Reason I ask is that this is basically the exact same thing - begging the fundie nuts for their creamy, white approval.
He only hires the BEST.
I can totally sees it; she suggestively brandishes a corn dog while batting her botoxed lids at him and breathes “Oh, Donald, I just know that Jesus wants you to be in the White House. I can so totally deliver the evangelical vote for you!”
The best part of this is that, when the real pivot–from political campaign to TrumpTV–comes, that enterprise is also going to go down in flames. Wonder how all these GOP/pundit/lobbyist/consultant male and female whores are going to feel when Donnie again declares bankruptcy and leaves them earning a pittance of the debt owed?
Now, now, of course Ms Bachmann has foreign policy experience, she can see Canada from her house…
and Wisconsin.
