Tennessee conservative Rep. Marsha Blackburn officially announced she will run for Senate in a Thursday video.

Blackburn credits the dysfunctional Senate for her decision to run, adding it’s a disgrace Republicans can’t overturn Obamacare.

She says the government needs to reduce its debt, balance the budget, enforce Trump’s immigration ban, and build a wall.

“I’m politically incorrect and proud of it,” she noted, tapping into Trump voter sentiment.

“I’m 100 percent pro-life,” she said, adding that she fought and won against Planned Parenthood so that fetal body parts can’t be sold in her state.

“I stand for hundreds of millions of of honest Americans who work hard and play by the rules. I stand for the greatest country the world has ever known,” Blackburn said. “I stand when the president walks in the room, and yes, I stand when I hear the star spangled banner,” she said finally.
