(NewsNation) — Former Miss America Carla Mundo, currently running for the U.S. House as a North Dakota Republican, has broken with her Republican rivals and said she would “worship” former President Donald Trump if elected. He said he would not and would treat the president like any other citizen. law.
Mundo said in an interview on NewsNation Prime on Saturday that Trump's name was cited more than 25 times by his four opponents during the debate, and that no president or official is above the law. This was in contrast to his own position.
The 28-year-old 2018 Miss America is seeking to become the first woman from North Dakota to be elected to the U.S. House of Representatives. He said the milestone would “open doors of opportunity for young women” in the state.
“As a lawyer, I believe in law and order,” Mundo said. “I believe that no one is above the law, including former government officials and the president, and that all laws apply equally.”
The Harvard Law School graduate said she would have to work with Trump if he became president again, but she is “the only candidate who won't bow to Trump” and fully supports him. He said he felt no obligation.
“I don't worship him,” Mando said. “I don't represent Donald Trump. I represent the people of North Dakota.”
Mund suggested that opponents would simply follow Trump's lead rather than exercise independent judgment.
