Family Affair: Father & Son run against each other, debating Trump

This is one worth paying attention to, folks. A family affair, of epic proportions, pits father against son, with Trump as the central issue.



.
According to The HILL (Which cites AP - here)

....A Rhode Island father and son who disagree about President Trump's policies are both running for office - against each other.

David Quiroa Sr., 47, and his son, David Quiroa Jr., 22, both filed earlier this week for a Rhode Island state House seat, according to The Associated Press.

Quiroa Sr. will run as a Republican, while his son filed to run as an independent. Both are hoping to unseat Democratic state Rep. Marvin Abney.

Quiroa Sr., who told the AP that he and his wife are "all the way for Trump," ran for the same seat 14 years ago but lost.
