Trump Country?
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart
Bright red. That’s the color I would use to describe
Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District. It covers parts of Nashville
and has been described as a “redneck stronghold.”
Today, December 2, 2025, there will be a special election to
fill a vacancy in the House. What makes this interesting is the fact that polls
show the election as “very close.”
In a normal year, a year without Trump in the White House,
the Republican candidate, Matt Van Epps, would be celebrating before the
election began. Instead, Democratic candidate, Aftyn Behn, is hopeful.
I seriously doubt that Ms. Behn will be victorious. However,
Trump and Mike Johnson are shaking in their cowboy boots.
Mark Green, who resigned in July, won this district by 22
points in 2024. However, the issue of “affordability” is a major concern for
all of Tennessee’s residents and the election has been called “too close to
call” in 2025.
To emphasize Republican fears, Speaker Mike Johnson was
dispatched to Nashville to campaign for Epps.
Trump is extremely frightened. If a miracle occurred and
Republicans lost the 7th district, the midterm elections next year
could return control of the House and Senate to Democrats. The powers given Trump
by six corrupt members of the Supreme Court could become null and void. Your
dictator would be reduced to what he is: an old, obese, sexual predator whose
existence would be completely irrelevant.
If you are a true American, and if you believe in prayer,
say a few for Ms. Behn. If she wins today, this could be the beginning of a
victory in the Second American Revolution for true patriots. The future of our
nation would no longer be in control of the American Nazi Party.
The word is “hope.”
