Why Does Ruben Gallego Seem To Get Away With Lying All The Time

[HikerGuy83]

This guy has been running off at the mouth for as long as he's been in office.

And getting away with it. 

I don't get it. 

He may be entrenched, but it seems he coudl take a little more heat.

Just so everyone knows....he plans to be around in the house a long long long time.

At a Washington fundraising event in September for his congressional campaign, Gallego told donors that he plans to spend the next 25 to 30 years in the House, all but ruling out a future run for the Senate.

“I’ll be trying to work my way fast into leadership,” Gallego said in a subsequent interview. “As a congressman, you can do more for your state the more seniority you have, the better committees you get.”

*****************

He is being encouraged to take on Krysten Sinema. 

While I know most on this board don't like her, having that ***hole represent the state would be TERRIBLE.

Somehow, the GOP needs to put some pressure on that clown or flush him out. 

As far as I am concerned....he is skating right now.

Gallego won his district with 75% of the vote.

Gallego is an extreme leftis:

I don't read "The Nation" as a matter of course, but in searching for some background on Gallego I came across this one:

Ruben Gallego’s Fury Over Uvalde Is Exactly Why He Must Challenge Sinema

If Gallego were in Sinema's spot, we'd be in tough shape on a couple of things.  The thought of him just sickens me. 

And it might happen.  I hope the GOP is really working to get one or two people ready for 2024. 

Senator Gallego ===>   

If this guy ever gets to a position of power within senate, it would be scary. 

Really reall y scarry.

So this is a year old and I have not read much more on the subject (but I've been busy).....

This groups seems a bit extreme....but they feel that Gallego has abandoned them.

Gallego is up for his fifth term.  I wonder if he's settled into D.C. life ?

[HikerGuy83]

He has entered the race.

He's a liar and a whackjob.

And I am truly worried he'll win.

Ruben Gallego looks like a George Costanza with hair and a beard, sans glasses.

We live in an era of Costanza-ism.  The "truth" is whatever you need it to be in the moment to fit the narrative of the moment.

An ideal library would not have a fiction and non-fiction section.  It would not be up to the Librarian Establsihment to make that determination.  All the books and periodicals would be randomly arranged, and it would be up to the individual reader to decide what was ficiton and non-fiction.

Todays truth is yesterday's myth.  Today's myth is tomorrow's truth.

The GOP needs to focus on it's message.

The AZ GOP needs a message.....one that works.  Donald Trump is not a message.

Outside groups need to be pounding the liar/whackjob Gallego constantly. 

He even has people inside his camp who think he's sold them out.

The real problem, of course, is that his seat will go to a democrat.  As near as I can tell, the GOP has written off his district.

[HikerGuy83]

This POS is now official.

If he wins.....it will really suck.
