FL-GOV: MAGA Rep's Ex-Wife Makes Bizarre Claim About His Accent [View all]

A Trump-backed congressman vying to become Florida’s next governor once faked a Jamaican accent to stand out in college, according to his ex-wife.

Rep. Byron Donalds, 47, who represents Florida’s 19th Congressional District, adopted the accent when he first arrived at Florida A&M University at age 18, his former spouse, Bisa Hall, claimed in an interview with the Daily Mail.

“He absolutely did have a Jamaican accent when we first met; it was gone within a few days,” Hall said. “He said that he used the fake accent because he wanted to stand out; there were a lot of guys at our university from New York, but very few from Jamaica.”

Hall was married to Donalds from 1999 to 2002.
