- 在田纳西州第九国会选区，共和党原本指望在批准一项选区划分方案后翻盘，但共和党提名人却出了新麻烦：据报道，州参议员布伦特·泰勒直到2021年还曾向一名非其妻子的人发送未经请求的裸照。
- And in Tennessee’s 9th Congressional District, which Republicans expect to flip after approving a gerrymandering scheme, there’s a new problem for the GOP nominee: State Sen. Brent Taylor reportedly sent an unsolicited nude picture, to someone who was not his wife, as recently as 2021.
当另类周刊《纳什维尔场景》就此事询问这位共和党人时，泰勒表示：“随着我即将年满60岁，我年轻时的轻率行为的‘保质期’早已过去。” 事发时他53岁——这通常不被视为“年轻”。
When The Nashville Scene, an alternative weekly newspaper, asked the Republican about what transpired, Taylor said, “As I near 60 years old, the expiration date has come and gone on any of my youthful indiscretions.”The incident in question happened when he was 53 — which is generally not seen as “youthful.”
