Lara Trump Hits A Sour Note With Critics Over Musical Fox News Moment
Fox News personality Lara Trump reviewed Democrats' singing abilities on Wednesday after host Laura Ingraham referred to her musical résumé, a widely-panned discography that's been the hit with autotune allegations.
The president's daughter-in-law, who has moonlightedas a singer in recent years much to theamusement of late night hosts, was weighing in on a clip from a sit-in protest that top Democrats attended Sunday on the steps of the U.S. Capitol.
The protest against proposed GOP spending cuts saw Jason Kaufman — cantor of Beth El Hebrew Congregation in Virginia — leading demonstrators in a song about building a world 'from love,' a song that appears to stem from one penned by Rabbi Menachem Creditor following the 9/11 attacks.
Ingraham, moments after Trump referred to the protest as a 'stunt' by Democrats, swiftly noted that the president's daughter-in-law is 'in music' before asking for her to rate the performance.

'I would say it was very special to witness that and that's a word that I think could go either way,' said Trump, a former co-chair of the Republican National Committee, as Ingraham chuckled.
'To a zero to 10, I'm going to give them about a .5.'
Ingraham: You're in music. You heard them singing. What would you rate their singing? Any talent there?
Lara Trump: 0.5

Social media users got a kick of the clip and mocked Trump, whose releases — including her 2023 cover of Tom Petty's 'I Wont' Back Down' — have often been hit with waves of online criticism.
I sing in the shower.
I guess I'm 'in music' too, huh?

She has NO BUSINESS commenting on anyone's singing ability.

'You're in music.' Yeah, kind of like her father-in-law is in politics: they're both AWFUL!
