A Republican Senate candidate in Minnesota has faced criticism for his questionable use of campaign funds. Royce White, a former professional basketball player turned conservative podcaster, has been accused of wasting over $100,000 on mysterious wire transfers, late-night trips to strip clubs, and buying expensive clothing.
At 6’8″ tall, White has garnered attention but not necessarily for the right reasons. His controversial remarks towards women on social media and allegations of mistreating his wife have raised concerns among voters. Despite these issues, White has received endorsements, including one from former White House advisor Steve Bannon.
It is unlikely that White will succeed in his campaign, given his limited funds compared to incumbent Senator Amy Klobuchar. National Republicans have distanced themselves from White, though he still has the backing of the state GOP.
The details of White’s extravagant spending, including visits to strip clubs and luxury hotels, have come to light. While White has attempted to justify his expenses, questions remain about the appropriateness of using campaign funds for such purposes.
As a conservative writer, it is important to hold candidates accountable for their actions and ensure that they represent the values of the Republican Party. Transparency and integrity are essential qualities for anyone seeking public office, and voters deserve to know how their contributions are being used.
