Maya Rockeymoore Cummings To Run For Her Husband's Seat | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC
That eulogy was something else, and if we can predict how someone will do only by that we should expect great things from her.
I’m sure there are a million rats that would vote for her.
@intersanctum
Truth is truth.
I called this when she gave that amazing tribute to her husband. She gives me Michelle Obama vibes ❤❤❤
@Creator u shut up Dumb demonrat
look im for new and young congress officials, but im also tired of families getting to the same field of politics. She definitely has what it takes, but I personally feel we should have someone else and stop one party controls for each district.
Creator thank u one day we will destroy this russian hacks
This is far from the normal case of someone taking on the role of a deceased spouse. Her accomplishments are as numerous as they are impressive. It’s a shame, though, that our understanding of cancer remains so primitive as to make the procedure she’s about to undergo a common-sense option.
I hope she runs & wins!
Yeah, because nepotism is just great, isn’t it?
In this case yes!
Thank you, Dr. Rachel, and to Dr. Rockeymoore-Cummings, for pickin’ up Elijah’s torch!
All the best for the operation!
Crooked husband =crooked wife so no thanks lol what did mr cummings do that was good for the people
You have my vote
Good for her and it would be a blessing for her to run for her husband’s seat.
Crooks
Yep then she could misappropriate a few million more while her constituents suffer.
@Let’s Talk God bless Trump and lotto 🙏 🙏😇 🙌
I wish I lived in Baltimore. She would get my vote. She is so intelligent, articulate and lovely. I think she would be a great congressional rep. Best wishes to Maya in her health battles. And thanks for running.
You wish you lived in Baltimore? Do you currently live in Iraq?
I guess you don’t know about her crooked past rhanks to hubby pulling strings!
Simple, move there..
I totally agree! I really hope she wins.
and if i did i would cancel out your ignorant vote…..
*Why did Bill Gates meet with Epstein so much?*
What an amazing selfless woman. God bless this woman thank you
Selfless? She’s taking advantage of her husbands good name for her own political agenda.
Elijah was a great man, but it’s time for someone new, who will win because of policy, not of her last name.
@Guinness Exactly. This libs are pure evil or incredibly uninformed.
@Sancho Ditherson Look I am a progressive myself, but I want to be consistent.
I remember my liberal friends shaming Bush for leeching off his dad’s success.
These people need to be consistent too and not praise Cummings’ widow for leeching off the success of her husband.
That is good news! Really good news!
I salute Dr. Cummings❤God bless you🤗and speedy recovery. Triumph in your campaign🙏
i’m not much of a religious man, but if there is a god I hope he will shine favorably upon her, bless her and everything she is about.
👍👏👏👏❤
Well it is true that God helps those who take a big helping for themselves like Maya and Elijah.
