MAGA House candidate accused — yet again — of exaggerating his background
.
According to the HuffPost, a Donald Trump-backed GOP House candidate who was previously called out for exaggerations about his military background has been busted again — this time for allegedly inflating his academic credentials.
As the HuffPo’s Liz Skalka wrote, J.R. Majewski, who is running against Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-OH) for a new seat in a reapportioned district, has already been exposed for boasting that he fought in Afghanistan when he served in the Air Force, with the Associated Press reporting, “Majewski never deployed to Afghanistan but instead completed a six-month stint helping to load planes at an air base in Qatar, a longtime U.S. ally that is a safe distance from the fighting.”
At that time, he stated he was barred from releasing details about his self-proclaimed deployments to Afghanistan because they were classified.
Now comes news that he also appears to have inflated his academic background.
“Majewski, a consultant in the nuclear energy sector who made his lawn into a giant Trump 2020 sign, has touted his academic credentials for allowing him to climb the ‘highest ranks’ at a ‘Fortune 200 company.’ He’s attributed his success to obtaining bachelor’s and master’s degrees, which helped companies to recognize his ‘intellect and leadership capabilities,'” Skalka wrote. “It was all on his campaign website, which had stated that Majewski earned a bachelor’s degree in business, summa cum laude, and a master’s degree in project management, magna cum laude, from ‘Colorado Tech.’ The site had this information as recently as late September, according to archived pages — shortly after the AP reported that it couldn’t confirm Majewski’s account of combat service in Afghanistan post-9/11.”
