Quotes I grew up watching this mainstream media and seeing a lot of the BS perpetuated by the mainstream media ... and I wanted to combat that. So I started off at an early age, and we're just getting started. Tomi on the 'Intolerant Left': 'I'm Getting Under Their Skin & I Love It' (7 February 2017). In order for me to give respect to what they're saying, I have to respect them," Lahren said. "And when they're on the internet trolling me, saying nasty, disgusting, vile things - which by the way is really a true testament to the unloving and intolerant left - I laugh it off Tomi on the 'Intolerant Left': 'I'm Getting Under Their Skin & I Love It' (7 February 2017). I'm for limited government, so stay out of my guns, and you can stay out of my body as well. Stated on The View, as quoted by Elizabeth Nolan Brown in "Tomi Lahren, Pro-Choice Conservative, Not 'Incoherent' on Abortion," Hit & Run Blog (Reason magazine, 20 March 2017). Quotes about Tomi Lahren [A] lot of conservatives have been calling for Lahrens head since her View appearance, insisting it's an embarrassment and an outrage that such a pro-choice harpy could be a public face of Republicanism.  As with Milo Yiannopoulos—who said all sorts of horrible things about women, Muslims, transgender people, etc., but was only ousted from polite conservatism after joking about pedophilic priests—it's telling (if predictable) that tepidly pro-choice views are the dealbreaker for the right with Lahren, while things like calling Black Lives Matter activists "the new KKK," referring to the Middle East as a "sandbox" that needs to be bombed, and defending the shooting of unarmed black men by cops never really rustled Republican jimmies.

I'm not a big fan of right-wing infotainment personality Tomi Lahren.  I think she's a hack.  On the other hand, she ought to be defended from accusations of hypocrisy in the wake of Lahrens public confession that she's still on her parents' healthcare plan.  …  Nor is it at all clear that Lahren would be without insurance in the absence of Obamacare.  Indeed, in the absence of Obamacare, premiums for high-deductible insurance for someone like Lahren would likely have been much lower, and Lahren may have easily been able to afford it.  In fact, it may be that Lahren would have rather been able to purchase a high-deductible plan rather than be on her parent's plan.  Maybe she hates having to go through her parents for coverage.  However, since Obamacare has massively increased premium costs for young people not on group plans, getting insurance through her parents may now be Lahrens best option.  ¶  Thus, if we consider the unseen side effects of Obamacare regulations in this case, it may be that Lahren is actually a victim of Obamacare.
