Thought we were all about electing Democrats. Nina admits she is running third party under our name.

It’s official! Sen. Nina Turner is running for Congress. She’s running for the seat vacated by Rep. Marcia Fudge, who Joe Biden has chosen as secretary of Housing and Urban Development. The People’s Party isn’t on the ballot in Ohio yet so she will have to run as a Democrat, but we can’t think of anyone better to win that seat and bring a friend of the People’s Party to Congress.

We are not The Peoples Party, we are The Democratic Party.

Let us be honest here, she is an admitted Stein supporter. She was asked to be Stein's VP. She campaigned for Jill.

I will give her points for honesty. She says outright that she is not a Democrat and a member of a third party.

These are her own words, not mine.

On DU we support Democrats. She has clearly stated she is not one. Huge mistake on her part. Huge mistake.

1. Cleveland Black clergy: "Hello EVERYBODY!"

[sheshe2]

2. Bravo to The Cleveland Black clergy.

"Hello EVERYBODY!" Look and see.

[Budi]

3. She's raised some big money to fund her Peephol's Party on the backs of OH-11

Trashed our President, our VP, our Rep Clyburn, & used our Party for her own publicity stunt.

She will leave after Aug 3rd, back home to Maryland, count her cash haul & rage on against the Democratic Party again & again.
While not uttering a word against the Republicans whose only goal is to crush our American Democracy.

It's not a stretch to see where she finally lands.
She's been there for a long time.

[sheshe2]

6. You make a great point, Budi.

I have never seen her rage at republicans. Not ever.

Hm. Imagine that.

4. The Cleveland Clergy has come out to denounce the lies Nina Turner

5. I think....

....some people support her because they revel in the controversy she thrives on. She is not a friend or ally to the Democratic party.

[sheshe2]

7. Agree on all your points.

She is not a Democrat. She has said that loud and clear.

[Blue_true]

39. Some people support her because their basic instinct is to burn shit down without

thinking through what will come after. That is how we got a president Trump.

[quickesst]

40. Haha

Ain't that the truth!

[msongs]

8. if she wins the primary DU will have to support her as party nominee nt

[sheshe2]

9. a big if. nt

[DemocraticPatriot]

26. The polls seem to be moving against Nina. It is a long time

before the primary...

[msfiddlestix]

29. I won't be supporting her in any way, on any level EVER. But I'll be silent about my disgust for her

We don't "Have to support" her.

We just can't "Bash Her".

Fair enough. there's always the trash and ignore button that should keep me from any temptation.

[betsuni]

11. Uh oh. Is she going to call them "establishment" and other insults, accuse them of stopping

at nothing to defeat her because she's the only one who's right, everyone else is corrupt and not progressive and blah blah blah blah. Waiting for it.

[sheshe2]

12. Waiting

[betsuni]

13. The comments and gifs in response to that OP tweet are fun, by the way.

But of course anyone who cannot see Nina "I'M RIGHT!" Turner's greatness as True Progressive Savior of the People from Both-Sides Half-Bowls of Shit are too stupid to understand. Maybe they have Stockholm syndrome. Heard that one before.

[sheshe2]

15. Stockholm syndrome.

I heard that we had it awhile back. WillyT.

Just re-read one of those threads after he was gone. Gone but his filth will never be not forgotten.

[betsuni]

17. Speaking of nutty, just heard Nina say that "progressives" in Congress should: "Go crazy.

Maybe take a page out of the Tea Party book ... and take the Democratic Party hostage."

Yikes.

[sheshe2]

19. OMFG.

This is how I have to sleep tonight?

Terrorized by our own party.

Sigh.

Nite.

[Chili]

21. Perfect!

[sheshe2]

33. 🤗

[Chili]

34. *hugs!*

[sheshe2]

16. Just checking...

That is a joke, correct?

No sarcasm tag, hard to tell these days.

OTOH.

Tina Turner, where ever she preformed was a phenomenal talent. Sorry you never saw that.

[DemocraticPatriot]

27. That was Tina, not Nina.

Very funny, though. lol

[leftstreet]

18. Is she really that big of a threat?

Not familiar with that district

[sheshe2]

20. Yes. nt

[Chili]

22. I live there

Yes. And I happily received my absentee ballot in the mail today, heavily filled in my Shontel Brown circle with my pen, and joyfully went to the post office to mail it, pronto.

It would be horrific for Louis Stokes, Stephanie Tubbs-Jones and Marcia Fudge to be followed by THAT woman, who was so against Hillary Clinton that she campaigned for Jill Stein - not against Trump, but against Hillary - and so vicious against Joe Biden that she said voting for him was like eating a bowl of sh*t, and she yet has the narcissistic audacity to temporarily call herself a Democrat so that she can continue to spew her divisiveness in the House and make herself the MTG of the left.

[betsuni]

23. +1

[LetMyPeopleVote]

25. Thank you for voting

[DemocraticPatriot]

28. So this is a special election ?

I was unaware.

Well, I hope Shontel wins the primary.

[Chili]

31. yes

The winner will replace Marcia Fudge, now the HUD Secretary.

I don't believe this district will ever go red again, it's one of the bluest in the party. That's why Brown MUST win, for cryin' out loud.

[sheshe2]

38. Good on You!

[uponit7771]

32. Yes, like Trump people have an image of her that is not her true self. Someone needs to tell the

... truth

[Chili]

24. I sure hope it's televised or recorded

I want to see that.

[brer cat]

30. K&R

35. Rt TY! We Support Dems like Shontel who

supports President Biden & VP Kamala Harris! & Sec of Transportation Pete Buttigieg!
