Fox News is reporting that NC GOP candidate Ted Budd, who is vying for retiring Republican Senator Richard Burr’s seat recently called out his Democratic opponent Cheri Beasley for “deceptively running as a moderate,” despite fundraising with staunch “defund the police” supporter, Rep. Cori Bush, D-Missouri. Budd, who received a coveted endorsement from the North Carolina Trooper’s Association, argued that Beasley is in a “desperate place” amid President Biden’s tanking approval rating.
