He sounds like he's a perfect representative for today's Republican party.

On February 22, 2022, White announced he would run for the Republican nomination for the United States House of Representatives in Minnesota's 5th congressional district, a seat represented by Ilhan Omar.[100] His campaign was endorsed by former President Donald Trump's advisor, Steve Bannon, and he appeared on the radio show of Alex Jones

In 2023, White appeared on Steve Bannon's podcast and said: "Look, let's just be frank. Women have become too mouthy."[105] This comment was later circulated by the Kamala Harris presidential campaign.[106]

During 2023, White also used his Twitter account to call Nikki Haley a "cunt". [Note: that tweet is still up]

... watchdog group The Campaign Legal Center filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission, accusing White of misappropriating more than $157,000 in campaign funds for personal expenses.[119][121] In July, The Daily Beast published an article alleging that White spent donor funds from his 2022 congressional campaign in a strip club in Miami after his election loss.[121][124] The article also said that FEC filings from the 2022 campaign showed "more than $100,000 in outgoing wire transfers and checks with no stated recipient or purpose".[124] White's has denied any improper use of donor money, and reported reimbursing his campaign....

White has four children.[127][128] It has been reported by multiple outlets that White is over $100,000 in arrears on child-support payments for one of his children.

White's grandfather has distanced himself from White, stating: "There’s no way I can support my grandson supporting the GOP, and in essence, Trump
