Michele Bachmann: ‘I wear your granddad’s clothes, I look incredible’

Is Michele Bachmann interested in pursuing a hip hop career when she retires from Congress? This video sure makes it look that way.

Bachmann, a Republican from Minnesota, posted a video on YouTube of herself rapping a few lines from the hit “Thrift Shop” by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis.

“I wear your granddad’s clothes, I look incredible,” Bachmann says perfectly with a smile.

The congresswoman laughs through the video, dubbing herself an “old person” as she attempts a few more lyrics.

The video is part of a post Bachmann wrote for BuzzFeed in which she spotlights the 16 things she’ll miss about working in Washington.

Labeled “speech prep with my staff,” the clip comes in at No. 4 on the list. She also includes Seersucker Thursdays, smoke-filled rooms, “friendly chats” with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, and — of course — representing the people of Minnesota on the list.

Watch Bachmann rap below, and prepare to be impressed.
