Ellmers is an example of the seduction of power. We elect people because of where they “stand” and then they do an about face. She was once endorsed by the Tea Party for her position on spending and size of government. Another betrayal.
“She has made clear that she no longer thinks of herself as her constituents’ representative to Washington; instead she thinks of herself as Washington’s representative to her constituents,” Jenny Beth Martin, chairwoman of the Tea Party Patriots fund, said.The article focused on her support for amnesty and allowing illegals to stay in the country.
