Election Day is 11 days away and Texas voters still don’t know much about MJ Hegar, but what they have heard likely included some #NSFW 4-letter words.
Today we look at: “Earmuffs Kids!,” MJ is Speaking
Campaigning for office is like going on a million job interviews. Those doing the hiring have to consider not just an applicant’s qualifications, but also their temperament and how’d they’d work with other members of the team.
These are not MJ’s strong suits. Even Royce West — a 27-year veteran of the Texas Senate — pointed out how MJ’s insult-driven threats to fight anyone with a different opinion don’t fit the demeanor needed to be a successful legislator. When her explicit language was brought up yesterday, MJ blew a gasket and spiraled into a profanity-laden Twitter tirade (as covered in the Dallas Morning News). This, after a local pastor said she cussed in church multiple times during a photo op in Dallas last weekend.
This is an obvious and stark contrast to Senator Cornyn — who is ranked as one of the most bipartisan and (as a result) effective members in the Senate. If elected, MJ’s inability to reign it in in the workplace could mean Texas is left out of important legislation and leadership posts.
On November 3, voters are going on a hiring spree. It’s important they have a full picture of their candidates in order to assess how they can successfully reach out to those with different ideas, build bridges with 99 fellow Senators, and deliver for Texas.
