Madsen: ‘Controversial’ Lahren inspires

Columnist Sue Lani Madsen/SR comments:

Tomi Lahren wasn’t what I was expecting. The best encounters with new people always start that way.

Lahren was in Spokane as the keynote speaker at this year’s Lincoln Day Dinner, hosted by the Spokane County Republicans. My only exposure to Lahren had been watching a few YouTube videos of her snarky political commentary permeated with salty language. Her critics call her a dumb blonde, an “airbrushed and photoshopped” bimbo and generally lacking intelligence. Those are just the printable comments.

When I sat down to interview Lahren before dinner, I found myself talking to a smart, gracious, lovely, well-educated, articulate young woman who always knew what she wanted to do and why. More here.

Question: Do you consider Tomi Lahren to be controversial?
