Column: How recall candidate Larry Elder mentored Trumpism’s top acolytes
LA TimesLarry Elder, radio talk show host, in his studio in Burbank on Monday. As a Santa Monica teenager, Miller called Elder’s show to complain of left-wing “indoctrination” in his public high school. While Miller worked for the Trump campaign, Elder told him to make sure that Trump claimed illegal immigration harmed “unskilled, inner city mostly Black and brown workers.” He told him to read up on Hillary Clinton’s “treatment of her husband’s accusers” months before Trump held a press conference featuring Bill Clinton’s sexual assault accusers to distract from Trump’s “grab ‘em by the pussy” scandal. Marlow heard Miller on Elder’s show “more frequently than any other guest.” Inspired, he reached out to Elder and got an internship with him, helping him land the Breitbart job. Marlow calls Elder “one of the most important American conservatives.” Elder also inspired media provocateur Candace Owens, who calls him one of her “idols.” He’s also had allies in former Atty.
