Mamdami endorsed DSA candidates primary out incumbent democrats. Trading up from left-wing kooks to complete lunatics.
Claire Valdez won in New York’s 7th Congressional District (Brooklyn and Queens), defeating establishment-backed Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso.

They are going nationwide with this movement- and there are 45-50% of the voters that will vote for them. And there are those on the Right who will stay home because they are mad at DJT or want to “teach them republicans a lesson” which will hand the communists power. At which point they will change the voting laws to stay in power- see CA and now VA.
It just goes to show, if you think they can’t get worse, you’re wrong.
In addition to the usual crowd of losers who blame their poor life decisions on others and use the government as a tool to extract the earnings of others for themselves, a big part of this shift further left is single white college educated women with belief systems that are completely disconnected from reality. Since this shift leftward primarily got started when women were allowed to vote, I have to wonder when young men are going to get tired of the crap and decide to put an end to it.
I’d say that’s part of it. It was a calamity of poor decisions. First, Johnny Isakson ran for senate again when he wasn’t in the physical health to make it through a full term. After he resigned, Georgia’s governor appointed Kelly Loeffler, someone who had never held political office, to finish out the term. His thinking was likely that a woman would do better in Atlanta’s suburbs during the next election. Perhaps, but her lack of election experience was more of a detriment. She lost straight up 51% to 49%. Even though Georgia’s other senator, Perdue, that was up for reelection received the most votes, he only made it to 49.7% instead of the required 50%. A Libertarian received 2.3% of the vote. Even though the vast majority of those Libertarians voted for Perdue during the runoff, it didn’t matter because Trump had already discouraged Republicans from voting in the runoff by saying that the election was stolen in Georgia. This also had the effect of encouraging the Democrat voters more. So, in the end it was a combination of self-inflicted wounds on the Republican side and Libertarian candidates helping the Democrats.
Worse, an Islamist who openly blames America for 9-11. What NY GOP need to do is suck it up, learn to fight dirty and run ads against every Islamist candidate using their own words and the song “Have You Forgotten.” That’s why the R’s hate Trump, he’s the second coming of Lee Atwater in a party that would rather be “noble losers” than “ugly winners.”
Yup. There’s also a percentage of ‘Nothing can be done’ losers in the GOP. Unlike democrats who tend to fight harder and understand the importance of winning even with a less than ideal candidate.
Well, not quite. I know what you’re referring to (the run-off) but it was set up by the 2020 fraud. Yeah, they should not have blown it off but it also should have never materialized that way in the first place.
