GOP Trump supporter running for congress says she was abducted by aliens & probed

[Bladewire]

Typical Trump supporter. She thinks that she was abducted by aliens and progon a spaceship.

Miami politician says aliens took her on a spaceship. Now she’s running for Congress.

“We realize that Rodriguez Aguilera is an unusual candidate.”

So conceded a Miami Herald editorial endorsing a candidate who once claimed that majestic, blond extraterrestrial beings kidnapped her when she was 7.

Years before Bettina Rodriguez Aguilera announced her bid to replace one of the most influential Cuban Americans in Congress, she appeared on Spanish-language television programs and talked about her alien experience. She saw three beings — two women and a man — she said. They were tall and full-figured. They spoke to her telepathically. They took her on board the spaceship, and inside, she saw round seats.

“There you have it,” says the paper’s editorial board, quickly acknowledging the Republican candidate’s odd backstory.

But the board said it agreed with Rodriguez Aguilera that her past experiences and comments about extraterrestrial beings are a “non-issue.” Her background both as a former city official and a businesswoman is solid, the board argued.

The endorsement adds another layer of weirdness to a state already known for its penchant for oddballs. Take for example Melissa Howard, a state House hopeful now infamous for touting a fake college diploma and has since dropped out of the race.

The Herald’s editorial page editor, Nancy Ancrum, was not immediately available for comment Monday. But the editorial board argued that Rodriguez Aguilera, who’s running in the primary for a South Florida congressional district, is a “strong candidate” with “plausible conservative ideas.”

“The daughter of Cuban political prisoner, Rodriguez Aguilera became an activist, volunteering with the Cuban American National Foundation,” the board wrote in its editorial published Sunday, nine days before the primary election.

Rodriguez Aguilera said she’s happy with the Herald’s endorsement. She said the board asked her about her previous comments about extraterrestrial beings. Her response was that they’re not important, and the board agreed, she said.

“What people care about is a candidate that can bring jobs ... and that’s what I have proven that I have been able to do for the past 40 years, and that will continue throughout my life,” Rodriguez Aguilera, who’s running on a promise to help South Florida’s working class, told The Washington Pos

Rodriguez Aguilera is running to replace Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R), the first Hispanic woman and the first Cuban American elected to Congress. Roh-Lehtinen, who represents much of Miami and Miami Beach, announced in April 2017 that she will retire, giving Democrats a chance to flip a the South Florida congressional district that Hillary Clinton carried in the 2016 presidential election.

According to the Herald, Rodriguez Aguilera is one of three best-known candidates in the crowded Republican primary, though she’s not viewed as the front-runner. The other two, Spanish-language television star Maria Elvira Salazar and former Miami-Dade Commissioner Bruno Barreiro, declined to participate in the Herald’s interview process, leaving the board with a choice between Rodriguez Aguilera and the other lesser-known names.

“The Editorial Board was most impressed by Rodriguez Aguilera, now a business consultant,” the board wrote.

They could be hybrids. Obviously not a 50/50 mix. Perhaps about one-eighth.
