Her eagerness to partner with Trump comes as no surprise given her unyieldingsupport for Trump’s presidential campaign and MAGA agenda.
Flores is in lock-step with Trump’s unpopular and dangerous rhetoric and record:
They are both election deniers. Flores has repeatedlycomeunderfire for spreading QAnon conspiracy theories and right-wing disinformation online. Flores even went as far as claiming that D.C. police officers orchestrated the insurrection at the capitol.
Trump told Congressional Republicans to block a border security bill for political gain. Instead of immediately addressing the border crisis, Trump wants the border to deteriorate so he can use the crisis in his stump speech against Biden. Days later, Mayra Flores was on Fox News saying “We do not need Congress to secure the border.”
DCCC Spokesperson Lauryn Fanguen:
“Mayra Flores and Donald Trump are two sides of the same coin. Whether it’s lying about election results, denying Texans access to critical health care, or playing partisan politics with key issues like border security, they’re both putting themselves above Texas families.”
