Linda McMahon, former SBA administrator, delivers RNC speech: Watch
Linda McMahon, former US administrator of the Small Business Administration took the podium at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee on Thursday to talk about Trump era tax cuts.
McMahon promised that a second Trump administration would make the cuts permanent and echoed a common talking point of, "no taxes on tips."
McMahon's husband, Vince, has been embroiled in a bombshell lawsuit filed against the founder of World Wrestling Entertainment where a former employee alleged that he took part in sex trafficking and put her through sexual acts that were done with "extreme cruelty and degradation." McMahon stepped down from his role in WWE due to the lawsuit.
