Our current Congressman, Jim Cooper, noted in his own words that he is on the Hillary Clinton bandwagon, beating her drum. Hillary is one of the most corrupt politicians of our time and our Congressman, Jim Cooper, cannot wait to support her, according to an article in The Tennessean.

Jim Cooper claims to his constituents that he is not in “lock step” with the Democrats in Washington D.C. and that he is really a conservative Democrat (what he refers to as a “blue dog” Democrat). His recent comments and support of Hillary Clinton prove that to be false.

Mr. Cooper appears to spend his time buffered and protected from the masses within a small percentage of folks in Davidson County — completely unplugged from the working man in this district. This is what happens when people spend 26 years in Congress — they forget who they work for.

If Jim Cooper would spend any time in the district with the real people; the blue collar workers, the farmers, the Veterans struggling to get good healthcare from a failing VA system — he would KNOW how popular Donald Trump is with the people of this district. He would know that Donald J. Trump is going to win Tennessee and the 5th District. I plan to do everything I can to help that happen. And, to win the 5th District for the true people of the district  — the working families — who currently have no voice in Washington D.C.

It’s time for a change, 26 years in congress is long enough. Tennessee voters are tired of having someone in Congress who isn’t effective and spends time daydreaming about a partisan fantasy that’s never going to happen. It’s time the 5th District actually had a congressman who reflects the values of this district, who is ready to roll up her sleeves and get to work. That’s my pledge and my promise if the people of my district will elect me, Stacy Ries Snyder, to Congress.
