There are actually more than one dead simple ways* he can get off the ballot that the WFP regularly use when things like this happen and they want to clear the path, but for some odd reason he doesn't seem inclined to use any of those options?

*They nominate him for some other position, or he "moves" out of New York which is literally already the case since he actually lives in Virginia.

Which, even if he doesn't play spoiler to AOC, forces her to put resources in to NY-14 instead of spending all her time helping Soc Dems around the country.

yeah the ibky that bg AOC did was say a nice thing about a TV host she probably knows nothing about. Y'all need to realize the vast majority of the country doesnt have a vast list of conservative operatives from the cold war to unperson

Somehow the NY Democratic party can purge voter rolls, close polling stations, and send people to the wrong stations during the 2016 primary, but they can't get get Crowley off the ballot.

Is there anyway that a straight ticket dem vote in the NY-14 could count as supporting WFP nominee Crowley? I'd chuckle pretty hard before drawing my katana if so.

No, you see, that was normal and good. But when it happened elsewhere it was a Russian plot.

Good to know that having bad opinions means that you literally can't do anything well whatsoever. Incidentally this would also explain your posting chops.

fwiw it's not entirely unreasonable to think that there's something there to the 'russians got clinton models' line. if you recall the election, a lot of people were very surprised by trump going and having rallies in shithole parts of states that were considered clinton locks.

so either trump's campaign team was a bunch of incredibly savvy political operators who realized she was weak in those areas
or they knew that there was a good reason to go to those areas because someone told them where she was weak

:thunk:
I think its less of a contrast between Clinton's campaign and Trump campaign being significant, and more of Trump actually campaigned in the first place.

We didn't have ADA's model and we were exploding our heads over how Clinton could be so loving poo poo.

The last remaining shred of justification the centrists have left for their dumbass ideology is performative wokeness, so of course they'd have to start grasping at the flimsiest of straws the moment that a leftist minority lady who they couldn't just pretend doesn't exist appeared on the national stage.
