A loyal Donald Trump ally on Thursday signaled a "divorce" between the MAGA base and the "tech bros" the president-elect has been recently flirting with.
Trump recently chose internet entrepreneur Sriram Krishnan, who has contributed to the campaign of at least one Democratic lawmaker, as a senior policy advisor for Artificial Intelligence. The former and incoming president has also held dinners and accepted major donations from tech leaders and billionaires.
After the Christmas holiday, Trump ally Laura Loomer, who accompanied Trump on parts of the 2024 campaign, spoke out about it.

The outrage began with the appointment of Krishnan, to which Loomer responded, "I can’t imagine someone donating to a Democrat who said Trump should be impeached over Ukraine then getting a promotion to go advise Trump in the White House. Truly shocking."
Loomer later questioned, "Should MAGA stay home in 2026?"
"I want [Team Trump] to let us know who is a priority," the far-right influencer added on X. "The MAGA base or an anti-Trump Democrat congressman who gets donations from tech bros and voted to impeach Trump? I just want to know what to tell voters in 2026 when they ask me if they should vote."
Loomer also spoke out after Trump announced at a right-wing event that he'd support a run for Arizona Governor by Karrin Taylor Robson.
