This is weird.
A childless Virginia GOP congressional candidate ‘borrowed’ a friend’s family for an ad. To appeal to women and families, Derrick Anderson recently released a campaign ad featuring footage of himself with a woman and three children in a charming family photo. The problem is that it isn’t his family but his friends.
Social media had a field day, accusing Anderson of lying about his family status to win votes.
A Virginia Democrat wrote: ‘If you think renting a crew to play house will make you relatable, you’ve officially entered the realm of the bizarre, Derrick. It’s time to get real: you can’t Photoshop authenticity!’
Someone else also wondered if George Santos was in charge of Anderson’s campaign.
