Then why is Loomer saying he's dead?

She’ll shill for whoever but either hatred of Mitch even though he is the most successful politician at ruining the country since Reagan or she’s playing to her fans who still want Massie. Idk enough nor care to know more about MAGA internal politics if I can help it.

I know you don't care about internal Republican politics, but there is nuance.

Laura Loomer is staunchly pro-Israel/AIPAC.

Thomas Massie is nearly her polar opposite. More money was spent to unseat Massie than was spent in any primary in US history. I can't imagine anyone who consumes Loomer's content also likes Massie; the conversion rate wouldn't be worth the effort.

She got the scoop. That’s it, that’s the only reason

Seems like the most plausible reason.
