This is the article that this Yannis Trittas guy claims prove WFP wrong:

https://twitter.com/YannisTrittas/status/1017459905920368640

...but that article says that if Nixon loses the primary, WFP could get her off the gubernatorial ballot line by running her in a different race? Exactly what they want Crowley to agree to? so :confused: indeed

The real Twitter decorum villain here is Hillary Clinton for telling Trump to delete his account IMO

what is it with centrists and rushing to self aggrandize themselves as "the adult in the room" and reminding people they're adults? Mindblowing fact: Adults can reasonably disagree not just on political ideology, but on the political tactics needed to implement that ideology as well. They're just trying to shame Ocasio for making everyone aware of Crowley's attempt to sneak in a third party run.

reading this made me feel terrible. i'm surprised she didn't realize the "mystery girl who discovered her and was obsessed with her bf and loved him to death" was him earlier. still glad she got out of that hosed up relationship

that he was willing to pull that poo poo on her proves how warped of a human being he is

The even crazier part is his "defense", in which he says he used the fake account to try and turn her off because she was fat and creepy and sent him audio files of her masturbating. So basically he responded by defaming her.

This reminds me of that idiot who stood by at Charlottesville saying "Peace and love" to all the passing Nazis who then thanked antifa when the Nazis started charging around and antifa protected her and her kid:

quote:

My 13-year-old son and I stood by ourselves on the corner down the street from the synagogue, in front of the Catholic Church, trying to walk back home but interrupted by a stream of white extremist marchers, with their signs and firearms and crazy regalia. I felt like an idiot but tried to look each in the eye and said, “Peace,” and “Peace be with you,” with as much sincerity as I had in me, trying to reach some humanity in them, and they jeered and mocked me, called me what you might imagine, told my son, Luke, that his mom was a this and a that.

Crowley actually debated Ocasio.

Carper is too much of a pussy to debate Harris. He sent a loving piece of paper to be read instead of defending his vote for literal genocide.

Senator Carper is too much of a pussy to debate Kerri, or he's afraid history will repeat itself and he'll collapse on stage. The only reason Carper won his first Senate race was his GOP opponent fainted mid-debate.

Carper is an old and dying fascist enabler.

America already has an insurgent army of centrists and they've kept the left cornered for decades.

Nazis would legitimately be a better motivator than the current roster of liberal outlets and figureheads keeping the overton window securely center-right

The closest thing to a coherent argument defending Crowley that I've seen is that him running for another race would involve spoiling that race instead, but I find that extremely doubtful. He benefits from name recognition in the case of the current race, which actually makes him a threat as a spoiler (though AOC will still probably be fine), but that wouldn't be the case for other races. And it certainly wouldn't be "election fraud" (I imagine he was flat-out ignoring the "run in another race" thing when he said that, since there's no defense on that front).
