“We beg to differ,” A team account for Sears posted in response along with a photo of Sears holding an AR-15 rifle.

“I’m telling you that what you are looking at is the American dream,” Sears said during her victory speech early Wednesday morning.  

“When I joined the Marine Corps, I was still a Jamaican. But this country had done so much for me, I was willing, willing, to die for this country,” Sears said, a Marine Corps veteran, said in her speech.
