Trump praises Tomi Lahren after she was harassed at restaurant

Tom Lahren

President Trump on Wednesday praised Fox News contributor Tomi Lahren after a woman reportedly threw a glass of water at her while she was leaving a restaurant in Minnesota. 

“Everybody is with Tomi Lahren, a truly outstanding and respected young woman!” Trump tweeted shortly after Lahren appeared on “Fox & Friends” on Fox News.

TMZ reported that a woman threw a full glass of water at Lahren as she and her family were leaving a brunch at a restaurant near Minneapolis. The incident was unprovoked, TMZ reported. 

Lahren, a controversial figure who has called for limited immigration and pro-gun policies, has frequently drawn the ire of social media users.

The 25-year-old previously worked as a host for Glenn Beck’s Blaze TV, and signed with Fox News as a contributor last August.
