Hung Cao, a Vietnamese immigrant and career U.S. Navy veteran, prevailed Tuesday in a five-candidate race to become the Republican nominee for a U.S. Senate seat from Virginia.
Endorsed by former President Donald Trump, Cao won with 67% of the vote and will take on Sen. Tim Kaine, the two-term Democratic incumbent, in November.
“My message to Tim Kaine is:
don’t go away mad, just go away!
Thirty years getting rich on our dime is more than enough,” Cao told The Daily Signal. “We need fighters to solve our problems, not politicians.”
Cao’s campaign raised more than $2 million, double the amount of any of the other four Republican Senate candidates.
Cao will be “a tireless fighter to stop inflation, grow our Economy, secure our Border, strongly support our incredible Military/Vets, and defend our always under siege Second Amendment,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social shared on X by Cao.
Cao came to the U.S. as a child from Vietnam in 1975. He and his parents were refugees. He served in the U.S. Navy from 1996 to 2021.
The father of five ran unsuccessfully for office as the GOP nominee in Virginia’s 10th Congressional District in the 2022 midterm elections.
He is the vice president at CACI International Inc., a national security technology firm.
this guy is a true patriot: The border crisis is a top priority for Cao, who promises to “build the wall” if elected to stop the “invasion” of illegal immigrants at the southern border.
“We will finish President Trump’s indicatives, and policies, of remain in Mexico and the completion of the border wall system,” the Cao campaign told The Daily Signal. “As Senator, Hung Cao will codify a secure border program into law.”
Cao resides in Purcellville, Virginia, a small town in Loudoun County about 50 miles from Washington, D.C.
This guy Cao is backed by the boss. He's up against a clintonista and is a high ranking criminal in the demonrat party. Let's hope Cao takes him out:
Heres Cao and the Boss:,P>
