B/c Glem is so dug in on his 'Dems are pure partisans w/ no principles, unlike the GOP' narrative, somehow Glem frames a wide majority (almost 2:1) of Dems putting principles ahead of partisanship & calling for Cuomo to resign as a negative.
If only there was a way to compare which party had more principles in the face of one of their own being accused of sexual impropriety. Oh wait, there is, because the president of the united states was accused by 20+ women of sexual misconduct. Let's see how they compare:
NY Dems who think Cuomo should resign: "Only 57%"
Republicans who thought Trump should resign after 20+ women accused him of misconduct (Dec. 2017):
A whopping 7% (with 92% against).
But Glem doesn't care. He has his narrative and he's sticking to it, because that's how he does. 7 is bigger than "only" 57, you odious partisan Dem bootlicker.
Also, if you were curious how much Glem tweeted about Trump's many allegations during his presidency (as he has been constantly tweeting about Cuomo)...there's literally just this one tweet about it. A single time. When prompted directly by a reader. That's it. #bold.
And it goes without saying, but Glem never once called on Trump to resign. Or pressured Republicans for not giving a damn. Because that's what having #principles is all about.

Missing some Tweet in this thread? You can try to

So Morris Katz threatened (former campaign political director) Genevieve McDonald before she came forward. Jesus Christ man...
What a piece of shit.
You can pretty much tell exactly who is involved with the campaign (in ways they have not disclosed publicly) because they all immediately pushed out the exact same, "this story is REALLY about Genevieve McDonald. Shame on her. How DARE she??"
i just want to say i got it a bit wrong....it's actually WAY more dishonest than it appeared at first.
I was only shown a snippet of an FEC report but luckily a follower who actually understands this stuff sent me all the reports and Annie has actually been on the campaign payroll much longer than I initially thought. Seems like she's been there since day 1. Just from the FEC disbursements alone, she's already made like $15,000 off the campaign. And I'm sure much more now.
-
"I never lied, I just never told anyone and tweeted out like I was unbiased party."
This is essentially no different than lying. It's a lie by omission.
There are a bunch of campaigns in Annie's profile but she willfully left this out. Because she was LYING by omission.
Really scummy, disingenuous stuff. The opposite of 'transparency.'
So when Annie was tweeting stuff like this, she was literally being paid by the campaign.
I am not a politics expert, but that seems pretty dishonest to me!
Frankly, it's fairly obvious that there are a lot of people who are financially involved with the Platner (and Steyer) campaign, without disclosing it.
The reason he 'survived' his uhhh scandals is because there were too many people financially invested in the campaign. All the consultants and influencers had money in this. The Katz Agency alone is going to bank millions on this shit.
There was too much money involved for people to bow out, despite obvious disqualifying things being disqualifying.
On a day where the current president of the united states (age 79) walked out wit his grotesquely disfigured hand, bragged for the 10th time about taking his dementia test and did an Orwellian purge of Jan. 6th, what is this muppet focused on?
Of course, for the 150th time, how right he was about Joe Biden Old. This is basically mental illness.
This guy, after making Presidential Age/Cognitive Fitness the SOLE issue of the last presidency, has gone the past 2 years just completely ignoring Trump. Like a fucking caricature. Literally started a podcast to talk about 'anything but Trump.'
And after getting tons of pushback for his head-in-the-sand avoidance, he promised that he would 'gladly' call it out if it ever became an issue with Trump.
And......that was a lie. Never misses a chance to relive his glory days of Biden Old, as Trump's brain is completely gone and he has various unexplained health problems.
Had a great day in DC yesterday and crashed hard when I got home, so here are some of my thoughts on the PA-03 race.
1. The outcome was not really that surprising. I thought Rabb would probably win with a divided field. He got a little more of the vote share (44% to 'progressives' and 48% to the 'mods') than I expected but it was basically the same dynamic.
2. The turnout was just pathetic. 21% of eligible voters voted in the primary. Average voters were just not at all tuned in (and probably barely even knew there was an election).
Low turnout in a blue environment is the type of race the left/progressives THRIVE in.
3. Rabb way outspent the other candidates. They had the 'big money' advantage. His ads were everywhere. All over TV...you couldn't watch anything without seeing his ads towards the end of the race.
I also got tons of mailers for Rabb and maybe 1-2 combined for the other 2 candidates.
Just getting your name/face out there in a low turnout primary is a massive advantage.
Again, zero mention of the fact that Maine is the whitest state in the country. Alex doesn't want to mention it because it makes the state look bad and as a Real Salt of the Earth Mainer (who moved there a few years ago) he's extremely defensive about it.
Instead it's 'authenticity and realness'...with no mention that the 'authenticity' was completely manufactured by DC Consultants and turned in to a very, very well funded (again by outside money) ad campaign creating the 'realness.'
That doesn't mesh with The Narrative.
The attention economy stuff is spot on but also zero mention that the Pod Save America guys, who helped him moved past it, were very obviously a part of the campaign push.
Anyway, it's so great to have the same horse race journalism slop that emanates from every soulless DC politico journo hack, but on a local level.
Every single post on this lady's timeline is just "wahhh old people. wahhhh The Establishment"
So sick of this lady who turned an organization that was supposed to 'inspire' people to run for office (an objectively good thing) into yet another org that focuses on nothing but factional/internescant anti-Dem struggles.
