Came to national attention after being made subject of an offensive joke by SNL's Pete Davidson (pictured) concerning the loss of his eye on a tour in Afghanistan (Nov. 3, 2018)
Republican

He was endorsed by Tom Cotton and Laura Ingraham.
He attacked his primary opponent for being critical of President Trump, and his opponent responded by releasing a video montage of him criticizing Trump.
His Congressional race only received attention after Pete Davidson joked that he 'looked like a hit-man in a porno film.'

His mother died of cancer when he was ten years old.
He has degrees from Tuft's University and Harvard.
He lost his right eye during an IED explosion on his third tour of duty in Afghanistan.
He exhibited amazing class after being targeted on SNL for his disability: 'Good rule in life: I try hard not to offend; I try harder not to be offended.'
The week after the joke, he appeared on SNL as a surprise co-host for the Weekend Update, accepting Pete Davidson's apology but also taking the opportunity to make jokes about the comedian's own appearance.
