She humiliated herself on the radio in a quiz about her district, she was carpetbagging RINO, I believe. This is a win for conservatives. Trump needs to get his act together with endorsements.

From I read about this, she recently moved to the district having never lived there before and announced she was running for Congress in a Red District, she was loyal to Trump who endorsed her.

Based on Tennessee’s new Congressional Districts, the Republican will win the seat.

From a local politics standpoint, I can see people getting upset if she just moved to town and wants to take a Congressional Seat from someone who has been there for years.

I fully admit to not knowing the complete story.

Ridiculous, if you get enough signatures you should get on the ballot, period.

The only qualification that matters to most around here.

Whatever you think of Ortagus or her candidacy, isn’t it interesting that they are deciding what is a “bona fide” Republican.

The Bushes can vote for Hillary, for example, but THEY are of course still “bona fide” Republicans.

They also banned Starbuck but the article doesn’t say why.

“They also banned Starbuck but the article doesn’t say why.”

Is he also a carpetbagger like Ortagus? I don’t know much about him and his history.

Bingo!

An absolutely great post illustrating the immense bias and outright hypocrisy.

What makes you believe this? In other words, what was she asked about her district that made her humiliate herself?

I just read that Ortegas registered to vote less than a year ago and has never voted in a Tennessee election. Does sound like a carpetbagger.

Too much makeup. But overall...not totally unattractive.

Worked for Jeb Bush in 2016 campaign and was married by Ruth Bader Ginsburg in 2013. She has...an interesting circle of friends.
