“The queen of conservative talk radio, Laura Ingraham, is eyeing a Senate run in Virginia and a challenge to Hillary Clinton’s running mate, Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA),” the Washington Examiner reports.
“Knowledgeable sources said that several party insiders have approached the media giant to run and that she is considering it.”
“Laura Ingraham doesn’t want to be just another flack. The popular conservative radio talk show host is willing to accept the position of White House press secretary in Donald Trump’s administration, but she wants a bigger title, a role in policymaking and a seat at the decision-making table with the president,” Politico reports.
“It’s not yet clear how Ingraham, a regular on Fox News who boosted Trump’s anti-establishment candidacy throughout the campaign, would mesh with the rival power centers that currently define Trump’s inner circle.”
