A prominent political commentator told MSNBC on Wednesday blasted the Trump campaign for including conspiracy theorists such as Laura Loomer, who was spotted on the former president's plane leading up to Tuesday night's debate.Tim Miller, a writer at The Bulwark, told Nicolle Wallace on "Deadline: White House" that while there's "a lot to laugh about" that Trump and his campaign have pushed wild conspiracy theories, he noted that it's important to focus on the "serious part of this.""What this is, who Laura Loomer is, who was with him on the plane on the way to the debate, this is a woman who is an unapologetic Islamaphobe, who has said at one point that she wants there to be a white nation-state. Something to that effect," he said. "She's advanced a bunch of racist conspiracy theories."ALSO READ: Buckle up: Win or lose, Trump promises potential scenarios of violenceThere's a network of similar people out there, but Loomer made it onto Trump's plane, Miller noted. Racism underlies Trump's promotion of a theory that Haitian immigrants are eating pets in an Ohio town, he added. The story originated from a story in a different town hundreds of miles away in which someone took a cat."And it wasn't even a Haitian migrant," he emphasized. "And the whole thing is just flat racist. And it stemmed out of like this really tragic story in Springfield, where a young boy, Aiden Gray, was killed in a traffic accident by an actual Haitian migrant. But one — one time."The boy's Dad spoke out and asked that his child's death not be politicized. "The fact that the people who advance these lies — they're not in the basement. They're not on Reddit or 4chan. They're on Donald Trump's plane. And if he wins again, the people that are advancing these racist conspiracies are going to be the ones making policy for the country," said Miller.Watch the clip below or at this link.
