Lara Trump Hits A Sour Note With Critics Over Musical Fox News Moment

1 month ago 2

Fox News personality Lara Trump reviewed Democrats’ singing abilities on Wednesday after host Laura Ingraham referred to her musical résumé, a widely panned discography that’s been hit with autotune allegations.

The president’s daughter-in-law, who has moonlighted as a singer in recent years much to the amusement of late night hosts, was weighing in on a clip from a sit-in protest Sunday by top Democrats on the steps of the U.S. Capitol.

The protest against proposed GOP spending cuts saw Jason Kaufman — cantor of Beth El Hebrew Congregation in Virginia — leading demonstrators in a song about building a world “from love,” a song that appears to stem from one penned by Rabbi Menachem Creditor following the 9/11 attacks.

Ingraham, moments after Trump referred to the protest as a “stunt” by Democrats, swiftly noted that the president’s daughter-in-law is “in music” before asking her to rate the performance.

“I would say it was very special to witness that and that’s a word that I think could go either way,” said Trump, a former co-chair of the Republican National Committee, as Ingraham chuckled.

“To a zero to 10, I’m going to give them about a 0.5.”

Social media users got a kick out of the clip and mocked Trump, whose releases — including her 2023 cover of Tom Petty’s “I Wont’ Back Down” — have often been hit with waves of online criticism.

I sing in the shower.

I guess I’m “in music” too, huh?

She’s in music? She’s in denial maybe

She has NO BUSINESS commenting on anyone's singing ability.

“You’re in music.” Yeah, kind of like her father-in-law is in politics: they’re both AWFUL!
