Speaker 1 (00:07):
Hey, everybody, welcome back to another episode of Laura Trump
Wanted for Questioning. Let's jump right in, let's get into
it today. Let's see what she got. Question number one,
what is it about animal rescue and dog adoption that
you want people to most know? Well, first of all,
(00:28):
you know, you can judge a society by how you
treat your most vulnerable in that society, elderly people, babies,
and certainly animals I think would fall into that category.
And for a long time, we had people who were
willing to just kind of let animals fall by the wayside.
(00:48):
Animal abuse and neglect was just a misdemeanor, wasn't a.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Very big deal.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Oh wait until Donald J. Trump came along and in
his first term in office, he made it a felony
to abuse or neglect animals. Thank you, President Trump for that.
You know, I think that if I had to give
a message out there to people about rescue animals in general,
you should always, always, always consider adoption. I have three
(01:16):
dogs at my house, and I can tell you, without
a shadow of a doubt, the animals that are rescued
know that you save their life, There's no question about it.
And when you do that, when you bring an animal
into your home, let's say you just want to foster
for a little bit, you're then opening up a space
in that shelter for another animal to come in, So you're.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Really saving two lives there.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
If you're fostering a dog or you know, a cat,
you're getting an acclimated to a family life so that
one day it can go into a home very seamlessly.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
And that's incredible to do.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
They you know, you look at the if you have
a family, you look at the statistics when it comes
to children who grow up with animals in the home,
and they are much less likely to get sick than
other kids. Why is that Because they have a much
more robust immune system thanks to the animals that live
in their house. They kind of bring in different toxins
(02:13):
or different things that the kids might not otherwise come
in contact with. Well, that builds up their immunity, that
makes them stronger. It's a positive thing, and it teaches
them how to treat animals.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
And also it's just kind of like a metaphor for life.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
You know, if you can do right by an animal,
take care of it, treat it right, and do the
right things for it. I mean, that's a good kind
of trajectory for life. You're gonna have to do more
of that in the future. You'll never regret adopting an animal.
They give you back so much more than you ever
give them. And God, if I could have like twenty
(02:47):
dogs in my house, quite frankly, I probably would.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Eric would kill me.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Although don't let him fool you, because when I first
met him, he was a little he was a little
lukewarm on having on getting a dog, and like, finally
about two years in I convinced him to get a dog.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
That's Charlie. That's right.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Charlie is fifteen and a half. Can you even believe that?
And he will tell you it's one of the greatest
things we ever did. And now we have three dogs.
The third one, Betty, he wanted to keep. We were
just fostering her. So don't let him fool you on this.
It's just the greatest thing you can ever do. And
they're not broken, they're not like castaway dogs that have problems.
(03:29):
In fact, a lot of these dogs, if you go
to adopt a dog, and especially a mixed breed dog,
they're much healthier than any of the purebred dogs would
ever be so, Please consider adoption. Please consider bringing an
animal into your home, maybe just foster it for a
little bit, get your feet wet with it and see
what you think. But it is always the right decision.
(03:51):
You will never regret it, so I'm a big advocate
for it. Okay, next question, had organized sports been part
of your life growing up? If so, were you good
enough at one sport to have turned pro but decided
not to do so?
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Which sport? Okay?
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Yes, sports were a huge part of my life growing up.
Was like good enough at one to have turned pro?
Speaker 2 (04:15):
No? For sure?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Not? I mean, listen, I think the problem I have,
and this is just a general life issue for me,
is that I probably try to do too many things.
And what happens is if you do too many things
and you don't focus on just one thing, you'll be
like good enough at doing those things, would never beat
great at any one because you spread yourself a little
too thin. I do it now every single day. I
(04:38):
try to accomplish way too much stuff in a day,
and I always feel like I'm forgetting something. I always
feel like there's like some loose end somewhere, and then I'll,
you know, I put in my calendar and be like,
oh my god, I gotta get the fruit plate for
Luke's whatever party tomorrow. It's just like, I guess maybe
every parent kind of feels like this, but no, you know,
I enjoyed a lot of different sports growing up, and
(05:00):
and I don't know that there was one necessarily that
I could have if I even if I like really
went hard on it, that I would have ended up
as a professional athlete in although I did think about
the heptathlon a lot. This is the this is one
of the track and field events, because I ran track,
and it's sort of like the this is the women's
(05:24):
version of the decathlon. This is basically the ultimate athlete
that was Bruce Jenner. That's what he did back in
the Olympics. If you remember back when it was Bruce Jenner.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Yeah, that whole thing.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
So it's like all these different events and it sort
of is like an all encompassing thing where if you
can do all of them and master it, you're sort
of like the ultimate athlete. And for a minute I
thought about starting to train for that. I started looking
at like all of the Olympians who had done those things,
and I was kind of trying to compare myself to
see if that was ever an avenue for me.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Obviously, you see, I did not end up.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
The Olympics, so it didn't pan out. Maybe there's still time.
I will say that I really thought I loved football
growing up, and I used to go to the park,
the ritsviol Beach Park and literally practice kicking a football
because I was like, you know what, maybe I could
be a kicker on a football team, because I just
wanted to be part of a football.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Team so badly.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
The scary thing is I think all the time about
the fact that had I been born like fifteen twenty
years later, there would have probably been some like lunatic,
woke teacher who, knowing that about me, would have been like,
you know what, honey, maybe you should just be a boy.
Maybe you're supposed to be a boy.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
No joke. I think about that sometimes.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Scary stuff. Sorry we got sidetracked from your question. I
still always say this. I think, look, would the heptathlon
would have been like aces? I would have loved that
ultimate athlete kind of vibe. I'm into it. I always
think kind of the most fun would have been to
be a beach volleyball player like go to the Olympics
and look at the beach volleyball. It's pretty amazing, Like
(07:01):
everybody wants to tune in for that again. You get
to wear bathing suit, you get to get a tan
while you're doing it. I in my mind, that would
have been chef's kiss. That would have been great. Didn't
work out at least so far. Stay tuned. You never
really know what's gonna happen. I found the perfect gift
that your entire family will love, one that brings families
(07:22):
together and actually fills your home with light.

next question, what is your favorite Christmas movie? This is
the easiest question I've ever gotten. National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation,
(09:26):
And can I tell you I can do I think
there are a lot of people probably like this. I
can recite every single word.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Put it on mute.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
I'll say every word to that entire movie, start to finish,
all the way through.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
My brother can join in. That's that's EASYPS. Do you
know who really hasn't ever watched that movie?
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Eric Trump? Yeah, can you even believe that? It's actually
hard for me to believe. And he doesn't because he's
never given it a chance. He doesn't get it. It's
just like one of those things where I'll have an
interaction with someone and we'll say a joke from the
movie and he's just like, blank face nothing.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
I'm like, you know, you really ought to give it
a chance. Oh no, No. And we watch it at
my parents' house every Christmas when we're there, and Eric
just I think he purposely tunes it out because at
this point, it's just like a mission he's on, like
a quest not to get involved with it, not to
enjoy it.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Not to like it. National Lampoon's Christmas vacation. I don't
know that it gets better than that. I'm trying to think,
is there any other one?
Speaker 2 (10:25):
No, there's no other one. That's it.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Best Christmas song Mariah Carey. All I went for Christmas
is you don't even challenge me on that. Don't even
come for me with any area on a grande kind
of crap.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
I'm not into that.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
I can also listen start to finish to that entire album, the.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Christmas album, the whole. I love it. I couldn't get
enough of that if I tried.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
And I just started just this week starting to listen
to Christmas songs. I couldn't do it December first, it's
too early, or right after Thanksgiving. If we're still in November,
I'm not playing Christmas music.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
I can't do it.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
So I just started and I'll listen to that up
until Christmas Day and then we're done for another year.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
All right? Next question?
Speaker 1 (11:08):
How soon until Waltz and his Minnesota administration faced consequences
for losing billions of tax dollars and ilhan Omar, by
the way, don't don't forget about her, because she's she's
part of.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
This as well. Who knew?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Who knew it when and why didn't anybody do anything
about it? And also the reports would suggest that they
did know that this was happening, that there was some
fraud being perpetrated on the people of Minnesota, that this
money was just being siphoned doubt and I guess millions
(11:44):
of dollars of it sent to Somalia and maybe Al Shabab,
a terrorist organization.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Interesting, but no one wanted to do anything.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
With it, supposedly because they didn't think it would be
a good look to kind of call out the Somalians,
that it might seem a little racist. I don't care
what you look like. I don't care what your religion
or your ethnicity or any of that. If you're breaking
the law and you're stealing a billion dollars, which the
(12:13):
White House says is probably much more than a billion,
by the way, that is just the tip of the iceberg. Yeah,
you ought to be held accountable. Yes we ought to
call you out for it, and yes you should be
prosecuted and you should be in jail, and hopefully, you know,
we're gonna see some of that money come back. I
don't really know. I think Walls is already look this
guy's it all started going downhill for this guy whenever
(12:36):
he tried to go out and do the fake hunting.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Wasn't that just terrible?
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Didn't you immediately just say like, this is never going
to be the vice president?
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Thank God? Imagine imagine those two. I can't think of.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Oh, how much worse it could possibly get if there
were one worse person to plug into that spot.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Maybe Jasmine Crockett. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Tim Wall was pretty bad, bad decision on the Harris
one hundred and seven Days campaign to choose him. So
hopefully soon we're gonna see some sort of accountability for
all of that. Okay, Oh, next question, why do they
call it.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Elbow macaroni? God? I wish I knew the answer to
that question. Is it because it's curved like an elbow?
I'm gonna I'm gonna go with that.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
You know, it's funny that is that is not a
frequently requested pasta in my house. A lot of pasta
eating in my house, And by that I mean Luke
and Carolina. We do a lot of rigatoni, a lot
of bow tie. We do some farfalle. I think that's
a bow tie as well. I doubled up on that. Yeah,
(13:52):
the uh, we do a lot of it. Angel hair
is a big hit. We don't do if you give
these kids like just the elbow macaroni without it being
a macaroni and cheese, they're really not into it. I'm
guessing that's why it's called elbow macaroni. God, I wish
I knew the answer this question. As a supposed culinary expert,
as a chef all over a pastry chef, maybe I
(14:13):
should know the answer to this, But I'll check into
it for you. Final question, tea or coffee and what's
your order? Well, I got tea in here. However, it's
always coffee for me. I got I have this because
let's look.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
You see where I am. I'm in Florida. It's a
little bit chilly here. Today.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
It was like seventy two degrees. Okay, it was raining.
That's a little cool for us down here. I had
to warm myself up and I wanted some hot tea.
I do like a hot tea. Always, always always coffee,
though I love coffee. I literally look forward sometimes before
I go to fall asleep at night, I think about,
like I can't wait to wake up and make coffee
in the morning, because that's how much I enjoy it.
(14:54):
What's my order if I'm ordering coffee somewhere, it's an
oat milk latte. And it's not because I'm like again
lactose or regular milk or any of that stuff. I
just like oat milk. And I know it's like a
processed situation.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
I get it.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
If you really want me to be happy, please get
me an oat milk latte, that's all. And maybe if
there's like a little bit of sugar free vanilla syrup.
I just need one pump, not too much, because the
oat milk is a little sweet on its own, just
a little Just that's what I want.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Gosh, it's so good.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Although, yeah, I take coffee anyway I can get it.
I'll take a cappuccino, generally hot. I vacillate between hot
and cold. Some years, I've been known to do a
lot of iced coffee. I'm on a hot kick, So
a hot oat milk latte, maybe one sport of sugar
free vanilla if they have it. If not, just don't
(15:46):
even bother with it, and we're all we're good to go.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
That's it. I could just I could drink them all day.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
But I have to cut myself off at a certain
point because look, I can't be drinking coffee at night.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
I'm never going to sleep herbal tea.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
So that's what we're doing right now, all right, that's
going to do it for us for this episode of
Lara Trump Wonderful Questioning. Thank you for these questions. Maybe
we'll get some more positive questions next time. Anything you got,
send it my way. You can post it under this episode.
You can post on any of our social media and
of course please make sure you like, subscribe, share, and follow.
We'll see you back here next time for more of

next question, what is your favorite Christmas movie? This is
the easiest question I've ever gotten. National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation,
(09:26):
And can I tell you I can do I think
there are a lot of people probably like this. I
can recite every single word.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Put it on mute.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
I'll say every word to that entire movie, start to finish,
all the way through.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
My brother can join in. That's that's EASYPS. Do you
know who really hasn't ever watched that movie?
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Eric Trump? Yeah, can you even believe that? It's actually
hard for me to believe. And he doesn't because he's
never given it a chance. He doesn't get it. It's
just like one of those things where I'll have an
interaction with someone and we'll say a joke from the
movie and he's just like, blank face nothing.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
I'm like, you know, you really ought to give it
a chance. Oh no, No. And we watch it at
my parents' house every Christmas when we're there, and Eric
just I think he purposely tunes it out because at
this point, it's just like a mission he's on, like
a quest not to get involved with it, not to
enjoy it.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Not to like it. National Lampoon's Christmas vacation. I don't
know that it gets better than that. I'm trying to think,
is there any other one?
Speaker 2 (10:25):
No, there's no other one. That's it.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Best Christmas song Mariah Carey. All I went for Christmas
is you don't even challenge me on that. Don't even
come for me with any area on a grande kind
of crap.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
I'm not into that.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
I can also listen start to finish to that entire album, the.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Christmas album, the whole. I love it. I couldn't get
enough of that if I tried.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
And I just started just this week starting to listen
to Christmas songs. I couldn't do it December first, it's
too early, or right after Thanksgiving. If we're still in November,
I'm not playing Christmas music.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
I can't do it.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
So I just started and I'll listen to that up
until Christmas Day and then we're done for another year.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
All right? Next question?
Speaker 1 (11:08):
How soon until Waltz and his Minnesota administration faced consequences
for losing billions of tax dollars and ilhan Omar, by
the way, don't don't forget about her, because she's she's
part of.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
This as well. Who knew?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Who knew it when and why didn't anybody do anything
about it? And also the reports would suggest that they
did know that this was happening, that there was some
fraud being perpetrated on the people of Minnesota, that this
money was just being siphoned doubt and I guess millions
(11:44):
of dollars of it sent to Somalia and maybe Al Shabab,
a terrorist organization.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Interesting, but no one wanted to do anything.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
With it, supposedly because they didn't think it would be
a good look to kind of call out the Somalians,
that it might seem a little racist. I don't care
what you look like. I don't care what your religion
or your ethnicity or any of that. If you're breaking
the law and you're stealing a billion dollars, which the
(12:13):
White House says is probably much more than a billion,
by the way, that is just the tip of the iceberg. Yeah,
you ought to be held accountable. Yes we ought to
call you out for it, and yes you should be
prosecuted and you should be in jail, and hopefully, you know,
we're gonna see some of that money come back. I
don't really know. I think Walls is already look this
guy's it all started going downhill for this guy whenever
(12:36):
he tried to go out and do the fake hunting.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Wasn't that just terrible?
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Didn't you immediately just say like, this is never going
to be the vice president?
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Thank God? Imagine imagine those two. I can't think of.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Oh, how much worse it could possibly get if there
were one worse person to plug into that spot.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Maybe Jasmine Crockett. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Tim Wall was pretty bad, bad decision on the Harris
one hundred and seven Days campaign to choose him. So
hopefully soon we're gonna see some sort of accountability for
all of that. Okay, Oh, next question, why do they
call it.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Elbow macaroni? God? I wish I knew the answer to
that question. Is it because it's curved like an elbow?
I'm gonna I'm gonna go with that.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
You know, it's funny that is that is not a
frequently requested pasta in my house. A lot of pasta
eating in my house, And by that I mean Luke
and Carolina. We do a lot of rigatoni, a lot
of bow tie. We do some farfalle. I think that's
a bow tie as well. I doubled up on that. Yeah,
(13:52):
the uh, we do a lot of it. Angel hair
is a big hit. We don't do if you give
these kids like just the elbow macaroni without it being
a macaroni and cheese, they're really not into it. I'm
guessing that's why it's called elbow macaroni. God, I wish
I knew the answer this question. As a supposed culinary expert,
as a chef all over a pastry chef, maybe I
(14:13):
should know the answer to this, But I'll check into
it for you. Final question, tea or coffee and what's
your order? Well, I got tea in here. However, it's
always coffee for me. I got I have this because
let's look.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
You see where I am. I'm in Florida. It's a
little bit chilly here. Today.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
It was like seventy two degrees. Okay, it was raining.
That's a little cool for us down here. I had
to warm myself up and I wanted some hot tea.
I do like a hot tea. Always, always always coffee,
though I love coffee. I literally look forward sometimes before
I go to fall asleep at night, I think about,
like I can't wait to wake up and make coffee
in the morning, because that's how much I enjoy it.
(14:54):
What's my order if I'm ordering coffee somewhere, it's an
oat milk latte. And it's not because I'm like again
lactose or regular milk or any of that stuff. I
just like oat milk. And I know it's like a
processed situation.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
I get it.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
If you really want me to be happy, please get
me an oat milk latte, that's all. And maybe if
there's like a little bit of sugar free vanilla syrup.
I just need one pump, not too much, because the
oat milk is a little sweet on its own, just
a little Just that's what I want.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Gosh, it's so good.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Although, yeah, I take coffee anyway I can get it.
I'll take a cappuccino, generally hot. I vacillate between hot
and cold. Some years, I've been known to do a
lot of iced coffee. I'm on a hot kick, So
a hot oat milk latte, maybe one sport of sugar
free vanilla if they have it. If not, just don't
(15:46):
even bother with it, and we're all we're good to go.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
That's it. I could just I could drink them all day.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
But I have to cut myself off at a certain
point because look, I can't be drinking coffee at night.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
I'm never going to sleep herbal tea.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
So that's what we're doing right now, all right, that's
going to do it for us for this episode of
Lara Trump Wonderful Questioning. Thank you for these questions. Maybe
we'll get some more positive questions next time. Anything you got,
