Democratic Congressional Candidate Caught on Recording Saying She ‘Hates’ Nashville
With a special election approaching in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District, Democratic candidate Aftyn Behn is under fire after a recording surfaced of her expressing hostility toward Nashville, the city she currently represents in the state legislature and would represent as part of the district if elected to Congress…
The newly circulated video shows Behn saying, “I hate the city, I hate the bachelorettes, I hate the pedal taverns, I hate country music, I hate all of the things that make Nashville an ‘it city’ to the rest of the country. I hate it.”
Aftyn Behn’s rant isn’t just an attack on tourist attractions; it’s a sneering dismissal of Nashville’s very soul. She hates country music—the art form that defines the city and gives voice to millions. She hates the bachelorettes and pedal taverns—the symbols of a vibrant tourism industry that provides jobs and fuels the local economy. She hates the things that make the city thrive.
The hypocrisy is almost cartoonish. This is the same candidate who just released a campaign ad featuring herself posing with a mechanical bull while a country tune plays. She is perfectly happy to wrap herself in Nashville’s aesthetic to fool voters, all while harboring a deep-seated resentment for it. It is a profound act of deceit.
This disdain for her own community is not an isolated incident. It is part of a disturbing pattern of hostility toward the bedrock principles of our nation. Earlier this year, Behn bragged on social media about “bullying” ICE agents and state troopers who were enforcing federal immigration law. She proudly interfered with law enforcement, treating national security like a joke.
Her contempt extends to her entire state. According to the Daily Mail, Behn has branded Tennessee a “racist state” and called sororities “a staple of white supremacy.” This is the worldview of a far-left activist, not a public servant. She sees everything and everyone through the warped lens of a radical ideology.
