Laura Loomer, a right-wing social media personality and adviser to President Donald Trump, was forced to explain herself during a trip to New Delhi when a journalist read her anti-Indian tweets back to her during an event.
During the India Today Conclave in New Delhi on Saturday, Indian journalist Rajdeep Sardesai presented a trove of tweets Loomer made disparaging India and its people. Loomer’s posts had been deleted before her visit, but not before others archived them.
