House GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., has demanded the resignation of Christine Paige, a member of the Potsdam Town Council in her district, following Paige's reported comparison of former President Trump to a 'rabid dog' after an assassination attempt.
Paige's comments, which surfaced last month in local media reports, drew bipartisan criticism. Stefanik condemned the remarks, stating that those supporting political violence and the assassination of President Trump do not deserve to represent the people of the North Country.
