Exclusive: Former Trump ‘Coffee Boy’ George Papadopoulos to Run for Katie Hill’s Seat, Source Says
Los Angeles Magazine ^ | October 29, 2019 | Max Kutner

Posted on 10/29/2019 3:05:36 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

George Papadopoulos, the former Donald Trump campaign aide who pleaded guilty in the special counsel investigation, told Los Angeles he is “very seriously” considering running for Representative Katie Hill’s seat following the announcement of her resignation on Sunday. A source with knowledge of Papadopoulos’s plans said he plans to officially announce and file his candidacy for Hill’s seat in the 25th district today. He’ll run in the regular election and a special election, if the governor orders one. He already had a team in place, the source said.

As Hill stepped down amid a House Ethics Committee investigation and allegations of sexual relationships with staffers, Papadopoulos, tweeted, “I’m smelling blood in the water now that Katie Hill has resigned.

California’s 25th congressional district is wide open for the taking. Someone has to step up. I love my state too much to see it run down by candidates like Hill. All talk, no action, and a bunch of sell outs.”

“Trump Coffee boy”, cute. I guess the first requirement to get hired for most newspapers is to be a petty a-hole.

Trump ‘Coffee Boy’ George Papadopoulos

That's funny, when he was under investigation he was a critical and close advisor to Trump.

i’ll support him. his book was enlightening and rings mostly truthful. he was far more than a “coffee boy,” especially to the deep state.

After going through the entire Mueller scenario in which he was obviously set up, I don’t see why he shouldn’t run. I’ll support him..

He’s not smart enough. Run him in Pelosi’s district.

Papadopoulos, according to Donald Trump, was a low-level volunteer—a “coffee boy,” according to another former campaign official.

Yes, there is a Republican running. Mike Garcia. I've heard Kurt Schlichter interview him twice.

Elect Mike Garcia , to CA-25 and replace Katie Hill.
