Direct link to video on youtube,
Secure donate to his campaign here.
A congressional candidate in Georgia is targeting Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders all but literally.
A campaign video from Republican Harrison Floyd shows images of the progressive darlings, then a clip of himself firing a rifle in a combat setting, while he says in a voiceover: “I’ll fight socialists in Congress the same way I fought terrorists in the desert.”

Nope, he didn’t “appear to threaten” them at all...IMHO.

Harrison Floyd, a Marine Corps veteran and retired MMA fighter, announced on Tuesday he would run for the seat in an online video.
“I’m a fourth-generation American, a former United State Marine,” Floyd said in the video. “I’m running for Congress because my family and I didn’t fight for our freedoms to allow our country to fall to socialism. I’ll fight socialists in Congress the same way I fought terrorists in the desert, so help me God.”
Floyd completed three combat deployments as a machine gunner and has served as a trainer for combat marksmanship, information operations planner and a martial arts instructor.
He earned a political science degree from The George Washington University and is currently pursuing a master’s degree in professional studies with a focus in legislative affairs at the University with the aim of obtaining a legal degree. In 2017, he took part in Yale School of Management’s Emerging Leader’s Seminar and earned a certificate in finance leadership across sectors from the school.
Floyd is a policy fellow at U.S. Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, an advisory board member of the American Freedom Fund, previously interned on Capitol Hill and in the marketing department of the Heritage Foundation.
After Rep. Rob Woodall announced earlier this year he would not seek re-election, several candidates have announced they would run for in 2020 for the seat that includes the majority of Forsyth and Gwinnett counties.
He’s a veteran and a patriot and I hope we get a lot more like him!
Wow!!! I’d move to Georgia just so I could vote for him. Way to go, Mr. Harrison Floyd, sir! And set your sights as high as you can, as soon as you can; we’ve got to defeat these b***ards pronto.
Good for Harrison!
What are his chances in the primary (this week?) and in the general election?
I like this guy too.
IMHO, the NY Post is sinking further and further to the Left.
reading that thread on youtube it looks like there is an major problem of veteranphobia.
For crying out loud. Threaten? I think someone needs a cork surgically removed from their butt if they think that is threatening. Joni Ernst said she’d make them squeal like a hog. So using that logic, Sanders should be bacon by now.
Ok, from my Forsyth link above, the primary is May 2020, or am I misreading this?
“After Rep. Rob Woodall announced earlier this year he would not seek re-election, several candidates have announced they would run for in 2020 for the seat that includes the majority of Forsyth and Gwinnett counties.
Joe Profit and Lynne Homrich recently announced they would also run for the Republican nomination, and Democrats Nabilah Islam, Marqus Cole, John Eaves, Brenda Lopez Romero and Carolyn Bourdeaux, who ran against Woodall in 2018, have announced they would run for the seat.
Parties will select their candidates in primaries next May before the November election.”

3 impressive candidates!
They changed the district around. It’s a close race between Republicans and Democrats now. I don’t know if he will be up against any republican in the primaries.
More like America-hatred.
What a bunch of aholes commenting there.
I vote via absentee ballot for the 7th and I will vote for the Conservative, whoever that may be. I don’t know this guy but triggering snowflakes is a good start.
They think he means to shoot AOC? They need to take their meds.
