Accidental Congressman Cresent Hardy is a shameless self-serving political chameleon with a history of misleading Spanish-speaking voters. In a room full of Republicans, Hardy admitted he’s “100 percent” behind Trump, but the very next day told Univision he had some reservations.
“Cresent Hardy isn’t just ‘100 percent behind’ Trump, he’s 100 percent like him: a shameless, self-serving politician with no respect for voters,” said Barb Solish of the DCCC.

In his most vocal support yet for Donald Trump, Republican Rep. Cresent Hardy said earlier this month he was “100 percent” behind the GOP’s presidential candidate and would do whatever asked to help put Trump in the White House.
Speaking Aug. 2 at a meeting of the Nevada Republican Men’s Club, Hardy said he would “do whatever he wants me to do to help him get elected, and I think he’ll do the same for me,” according to a recording provided by a Democratic tracker.
…”[t[he day after he talked to the GOP club, Hardy did an interview with the Spanish-language television station Univision. While he again expressed reservations about Trump’s rhetoric, calling it “frustrating,” he was less emphatic about his support for Trump, simply saying he could not support Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
