Cindy Axne, the state\u2019s lone congressional Democrat, told <em>Breitbart News Saturday<\/em> that Axne is only loyal to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and not Iowans.<\/p>\n<p>Nunn, during his&nbsp;appearance on SiriusXM\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Breitbart News Saturday&nbsp;<\/em>with host Matthew Boyle,&nbsp;Breitbart News\u2019s Washington political editor, said it will be a \u201cgood year\u201d to be a Republican running against a Democrat such as Axne, noting he is also \u201cexcited to go after one of Nancy Pelosi\u2019s most loyal liberal vote givers.\u201d Nunn wished Axne \u201ccould be as loyal to Iowa as she is to the speaker.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>The Iowan claimed to have a track record of winning and unseating Democrats in the process. With his eyes now set on Congress and flipping Axne\u2019s third district seat, he\u2019s previously flipped a state House seat and a state Senate seat from Democrats and&nbsp;was able to turn red seats that Democrats had held for 60 years.<\/p>\n<p>Nunn said, \u201cWe have a track record of success, we\u2019ve been able to raise money, but most importantly, we\u2019re fighting for those kinds of key principles that, you know \u2014 Donald Trump talked about \u2014 standing up to countries like China, being able to be hard on folks who just want to cave to the woke left.\u201d This will come in handy, as Nunn is running against Axne in potentially one of the most brutal congressional races across the country, with the House majority at stake.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>LISTEN:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThe reality is in the last election, [Axne] won one county in the entire state,\u201d Nunn added. \u201cOn top of that, she\u2019s voted 96 percent of the time with Nancy Pelosi and the squad as a result.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In fact, Axne has voted along with Pelosi to enact partisan agenda items from her and the left, such as the&nbsp;$1.2 trillion infrastructure bill \u2014 which was signed into law by Biden \u2014 along with Biden\u2019s&nbsp;\u201cmarquee legislation,\u201d the&nbsp;$1.75 trillion <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/11\/19\/house-passes-behemoth-build-back-better-act\/\">Build Back Better Act<\/a>, the Democrats\u2019 reconciliation infrastructure bill. The Congressional Budget Office <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/11\/18\/cbo-build-back-better-act-adds-750-billion-to-deficit-over-five-years\/\">found<\/a> that the \u201cmarquee legislation\u201d would add billions to the American&nbsp;deficit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re just getting to a point where she\u2019s not even showing up in certain places in Iowa anymore, because she doesn\u2019t have a single friend here but also because she doesn\u2019t care,\u201d Nunn explained. He believes that Axne is only loyal to people in&nbsp;California and New York. They write her fundraising checks along with Pelosi and the far-left members of her party instead of the&nbsp;everyday Iowans. He clarified that all of that is reflected in&nbsp;higher gas prices and higher inflation. \u201cThat\u2019s a tax on working Iowans, and Iowans are clearly fed up with it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nunn also argued that Axne could never receive more than roughly 48 percent of the popular vote during an election in the old district. At the same time, the new one allows the opportunity for more Republicans and&nbsp;independents who lean Republican to vote and, in turn, possibly vote Axne out of office.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B3\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cWith this, we get the opportunity to not only win back Congress, but win back a voice for the rest of the nation in Washington, DC, and hold this administration accountable early on, and not suffer another two years of a Biden administration which gives up on Afghanistan, which gives up on the American worker in which talks about increasing taxes on every working-class American in the country,\u201d he claimed.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"11.599447513812\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I\u2019m in for Iowa!
