Methinks that fake Democrats are going to become the norm. We need laws that require donor's money back for false represntation.

Well fuck. This is my district but the choice was between joe Kent and this lady. Given how nuts kent came off I still would have voted for Perez even if she didn’t hide what she really intended to vote against. She’s not getting my vote again…unless her next opponent is another election denier. This system sucks.

What a bitch. She sold everyone out who voted for her.

Not at all the same as this, but it does remind me that someone on a forum I post on reacted to be told about Tulsi Gabbard's views with the exact phrase "but I thought she was a beautiful attractive progressive". Apparently entirely seriously.

@HeartyBeast, please add a label to the title of your post (news, opinion, editorial, analysis). Thank you!
