Rep. Jim Jordan is in trouble now that he's being considered for speaker of the House, according to the Democratic candidate running to unseat him.
Tamie Wilson is challenging Jordan in the newly redrawn 4th Congressional District, according to local reports. She now says she thinks making Jordan the GOP nominee for speaker of the House will expose him in the eyes of the general public.
She conveyed her message in an open letter aimed at the representative.

"As the woman running against you, I have some bad news for you. Your career is now over. The reason is simple," she wrote. "The ENTIRE world will now see your true pathetic colors broadcast on the news every single day."
Wilson then listed some of the allegations levied against Jordan.
"Everyone is going to know you covered up RAPE at OSU where kids trusted you," she said. "Everyone is going to know you have DEFIED a January 6 subpoena for over 500 days and deserve to be in HANDCUFFS rather than a Speaker’s chair."
Wilson added that the job of the House speaker "is to build consensus and get things done."
"You lack backbone and moral fortitude. You have never shown willingness to work with Democrats or even moderate Republicans. You are the worst kind of partisan extremist and you’re not a leader. You are a do nothing loser who has never even never passed a bill," she wrote. "You are inflammatory and irresponsible and you are beneath the dignity of the office. You have failed to protect those kids and you’ve failed to protect the Constitution. Your students from OSU don’t trust you. Your district doesn’t trust you. And America doesn’t trust you. Everyone will know you’re a failure. You are finished Jim."
