Chair of the Appropriations committee is one of the most powerful people in DC, or at least historically they were, before guaranteed funding via endless continuing resolutions. Nevertheless, it would send a strong message to primary one out of congress.
The intelligence demonstrated by most of the posters in this thread is astounding. A few points:
1. Trump endorsed Cole.
2. Bondar lives in Rockwall, Texas and is married to an obviously wealthy Dallas girl. Look up the house in Texas.
3. He rented a house in Oklahoma just to run in the election.
4. It is my understanding he is actually from Illinois.
Now if you are from Oklahoma or live in that district you have the right to vote for a candidate other than Cole, but you shouldn’t be so certain that the fat assed Bondar is actually a Trump supporter, Conservative or even a real Republican. The democrats have realized they can’t run as democrats in Oklahoma any longer and have been finding closet democrats and leftist to pose as Trump supporters hoping to steal a few elections. I’ll remind you of our current Attorney General Drummond and the former Secretary of Education and democrat governor candidate Joy Hofmeister.
