‘Who’s Paying Me’ — Dem Candidate Admits To Morphing Persona

Democrat Iowa state senator and congressional candidate Sarah Trone Garriott admits to morphing her persona depending on who’s paying her, in a clip obtained by the Daily Caller.

Trone Garriott, an ordained minister in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) running in Iowa’s 3rd congressional district, made the remarks during the Iowa Secular Summit in July 2023, where she appeared to be presenting to a group of attendees using a PowerPoint.

“And so in my life as a state legislator, there are times in my life where I’m very clear where I am doing the church thing, and I’m the minister, and that’s what I’m about. And there are times that I know I’m the senator and that’s what I am there for,” she said.

The state senator added that navigating those roles can at times be unclear and “confusing,” telling the audience she can feel like she’s “all things” at once.

“But there’s a lot of time that gets kind of mushy and kind of confusing, like today I’m not really sure who I am right now. I’m kind of all things. Uh, you know sometimes I can tell by the outfit I’m wearing or my name tag, or who’s paying me, but um other times it’s hard because all these things they connect and you know, they get a little messy.” (Read more from “‘Who’s Paying Me’ — Dem Candidate Admits To Morphing Persona” HERE)
