Lara Trump claims the high price of turkey is a part of a plot by Democrats to destroy Thanksgiving and other holidays.
Trump told Hannity guest host Pete Hegseth that inflation, which has resulted in Americans paying more for a turkey, is actually a plot by liberals to “transform” America, and to do that, “you have to take away our traditions.”
“It might seem a little funny and a little ridiculous,” Trump continued. But she says the message being sent is, “don’t have a turkey, then people won’t come over.”
“Last year, remember, they didn’t want us to get together, so I guess we’re lucky they’re letting us have Thanksgiving this year,” she continued. “At really, the core of this, they want to divide Americans up. They don’t want us to have any common ground. They don’t want us to have any shared traditions like Thanksgiving. A lot of places last month actually did away with Halloween because they wanted to be inclusive of the people that didn’t celebrate Halloween.”
Earlier in the program former Trump assistant secretary of the treasury, Monica Crowley, said liberals have tried to “minimize” inflation.
“They don’t really care that Americans are being squeezed by higher prices because it’s all being done in the name of the fundamental transformation of the nation,” Crowley added. “So they have a broader ideological agenda here, to remake the economy, reengineer the relationship between the government, the individual, and the economy.”
