Michigan Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers reacts to Abdul El-Sayed winning the Democratic primary: “I spent years hunting terrorists and bringing Osama bin Laden to justice. Never in a million years did I think that I would be running against someone who believes America deserved 9/11.”
It’s one of the tricks we’ve been trying to warn people about. The looney left releases bs inner polls to drive their narrative, boost their popularity, & suppress the vote.
Aprile529@aprile529.bsky.social · 14h agoDid all those people lie to pollsters, did his supporters not show up because they knew he was winning anyway (I heard that excuse in 2016 a lot), have they actually called this race for him yet?

Hey @emmarjanssen.bsky.social Saying Black voters don’t like racist antisemitic DSA candidates because they’re uneducated is not the flex you think it is. Sanders tried the same thing, calling Black voters “low information” because they didn’t buy his 40 year old stump speech.

Imagine thinking so little of yourself that you just let this half sentient rotten potato talk to you like this. I don't care if he's president, have some self respect.
