Pro-Gun GOP Senator Dragged For Appearing To 'Hunt' In Video After It's Revealed That She Doesn't Have A Hunting License

Pro-Gun GOP Senator Dragged For Appearing To 'Hunt' In Video After It's Revealed That She Doesn't Have A Hunting License

Republican Senator Kelly Loeffler of Georgia was appointed by Republican Governor Brian Kemp late last year to replace former Senator Johnny Isakson.

She is currently running to keep her seat in a 2020 special election.

But a recent campaign ad may be generating more trouble than support for Loeffler.


The ad touts Loeffler's support of the Second Amendment, featuring her in a bright orange vest with a rifle resting on her shoulder.

Watch below.

The video was posted to her Instagram over a week ago, but it wasn't until recently that eagle-eyed viewers confirmed that Loeffler doesn't have a hunting permit.

At no point in the video does Loeffler fire her rifle, begging the question:

Was Loeffler breaking the law by hunting without a permit was she lying to her constituents by pretending to be an avid hunter?

Neither is a good look.

Fellow Republican, Congressman Doug Collins, another Trump supporter looking to ascend from the House to the Senate, seized upon the criticisms of Loeffler.

He was far from the only one to call out the inconsistency.



The criticisms carried over to Instagram as well.

We'll see if Loeffler's pretend hunting is enough to keep her Senate seat in November or if she'll get past the primaries against Collins.

Conservative Rep. Who Trump Threatened To Primary Calls Out GOP Over Spending Bill In Fiery Speech

After President-elect Donald Trump called for a primary against Texas Republican Representative Chip Roy for opposing lifting the debt ceiling for two years as part of a spending package, Roy took to the House floor to rip his GOP colleagues for being fiscally irresponsible.

The debt ceiling is a statutory cap on the amount the federal government can borrow. It has historically been a contentious issue in Congress, which has repeatedly raised or suspended it to prevent a default on the national debt. Critics argue, however, that removing the limit entirely could undermine the country’s long-term economic stability.
