This Yankee moved to Texas to run for Congress and it obviously didn't go well FacebookTwitterEmail Some Yankee thought he could fool us all with a fake accent and make it into Congress. Rodimer's bid to "make America Texas again" didn't go well for him. “The three dirtiest jobs in the world?” Rodimer asks in an apparently serious advertisement released ahead of the election. “Professional wrestling, politician, and bull riding. Let’s go, boys!” Despite moving his wife and seven kids to Mansfield, investing in a cowboy hat, hiring a bull-riding stunt double and adopting a sort-of Southern accent that's definitely not Texan, Rodimer came in 11th with only 3 percent of the vote in the May 1 election.
