To the Editor:

Madison Cawthon’s website states: “Send a fighter to Congress.” In fact, the term “fight” is referenced several times throughout his “pitch,” fighting against liberals, conservationists, “left-wing socialists,” AOC and “the Squad,” the AHCA, the nebulous “left,” and one infers, anyone who holds opinions contrary to Mr. Cawthorn. 

The candidate had pledged 100 percent fealty to the divider in chief in the White House, who for the past four years has provoked chaos, mistrust and hatred among the people of this country. Mr. Cawthorn seems ready to fall in line. I suggest we don’t need yet another representative from the 11th District with a chip on his shoulder.

Send a fighter to Congress? No thanks. We have enough there already.
