Jamaal Bowman, 1st Political Candidate, Beats Longtime Congressman in NY Democratic Primary | MSNBC
“If I didn’t have a primary, I wouldn’t care”
Eliot Engel
That quote is going to cost a log of politicians. I am happy he chose to die on that hill, The guy who got elected speaks well, is an educator, and I like him. This guy was not in it for the people clearly. 1 down many to go.
Exactly. He really showed his true colors and I’m glad they showed him the exit
Awesome, we need young people!
You’re right. The old corrupt dinosaurs don’t have America’s youth in mind when they pass policies. They clearly serve their corporate donors not their constituents
but not racist blacjs
Good!! We needed this and to everyone who has been in Congress for 40yrs!
Absolutely! This is a great moment!!
Upset? Who’s upset? I’m not upset. Are you upset?
@Richard Darlington I’ll just go ahead and let both our posts speak for themselves,OK there, Skippy?😉
@salmonline
Whatever gets you through the night, Sunshine.
@Richard Darlington Thanks, Darling.😉
@salmonline
Funny.
I haven’t been teased about my name since the 5th grade.
Thanks for the memories,
@Richard Darlington No, no… I wasn’t teasing you, snowflake. Take it easy, Sweetheart.😉
Nice to know that a progressive win got all but one minute on a left-of-center mainstream news network
Make America great again without Trump!
@CShield Go back in your basement you pervert troll …
@Kevin McNeil 😂😂😂 I live rent free in your empty head, sad troll. I’m pleased to have triggered you so completely.
MAGA actually makes sense, now.
@CShield “Morning in America” I remember it well. I voted for the man twice. I was young, and full of fire then. God bless William F. Buckley.
@Surge I don’t want to ever be united with democrats. I don’t believe in fascism, and riots in the streets. I despise Marxist ideology.
He literally admitted he didn’t care. I’m glad he lost. If he’s lost the zest to serve he should retire.
do you not realize, that the old phogeys wont leave until they’re unseated?
0:10 – Jeez, the incumbent looks nearly dead. He needs to retire, anyway.
Alexa, play ‘We are the champions.’
Out with the old in with the new we need to get rid of some of these old timers that stuck with the old way of thinking and politics.
Exactly
Steve L
I agree. Pelosi, Schumer, Schiff, Nadler, Waters, Sanders, there are so many of them
@Alex Hamilton don’t forget the Republicans
Alex Hamilton idk how you forget moscow mitch
Get rid of ALL the old timers
Good for New York! AOC first, and now another progressive to represent the people of this country rather than big money donors.
The progressives are little by little taking over. Well, let’s see what he can do.
Ye su No they aren’t. Sanders just lost AGAIN. Where are they “taking over” at? New York? Lol Who cares?
@Ye su It would be difficult for them to do worse than the corporate stooges they replace.
@Chris L Yeah who cares about New York. It’s only the economic and cultural center of the entire world.
Establishment politicians on BOTH sides of the isle gotta go! This is good news, America. The time for for change is now!! ✌🏻✌🏾🇺🇸
LOVE THE NAME MCLOVIN. THIS IS GOOD NEWS INDEED. I WONDER IF THE CLIP WHERE HE SAYS THAT HE WAS THERE ONLY BECAUSE OFF THE ELECTION,REMEMBER. THAT WAS THE END OFF THAT.
That whole part. Time to make our politicians actually work for the people they serve.
The winds of change are blowing
I am not a fan of ridiculously short term limits, but 32 years is time for a gold watch and a vegetable garden.
Hey, it’s time for the “next greatest generation.” America will be in good hands. First, let’s us help you get rid of the human virus in the WH. Turn out the November Vote! 🌊 😎
Nice, if I was a resident there I would’ve voted for him. The House and Senate does need some new fresh faces, hope more of the older will be out this round. Especially Majority leader Mitch McConnell and the rest of the Trump enablers as well.
So happy! I contributed from Ohio!
The fight is far from over. This November will be the biggest fight of our life, and then we need to keep our focus on upcoming elections for the next two years. Erasing corruption from politics is possible, but it will not be as easy as one vote this November.
Remember, Trump is a large part of the problem, but not the only one.
Wowsers! I don’t want to get ahead of myself, but this looks like hope to me.
Says alot about how tone deaf the old timers are when an endorsment fro Clinton is considered as something positive. More progressives needed!
