Former PA GOP congressmen Charlie Dent, Greenwood endorse Democrat Shapiro for governor

Former Lehigh County congressman Charles Dent and former Bucks County congressman Jim Greenwood, both Republicans, have endorsed Democratic state Attorney General Josh Shapiro in his campaign for governor over Republican nominee Doug Mastriano.

“I’ve been a Republican my entire life, and I have always supported Pennsylvania’s Republican Governors – but in this election, I am proud to endorse Josh Shapiro,” Dent said in a statement released by Shapiro’s campaign.

Josh has integrity and always works to bring people together. We may not always agree on every policy position, but that is to be expected. His focus on improving our economy, strengthening our schools, and keeping our communities safe is what Pennsylvania needs now.”

Dent’s statement said “Mastriano, on the other hand, is an extremist who is a threat to the rule of law and the constitutional order.”

Shapiro’s campaign quoted Greenwood as saying he also had votyed for the Republican candidate for governor throughout his life, “but I cannot vote for someone as extreme and dangerous as Doug Mastriano.”

Others listed as supporting Shapiro over Mastriano are Montgomery County’s Sandra Schultz Newman, former justice of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court; former Buck County state representative Dave Steil; former Montgomery County state representative Lita Cohen; and former Montgomery County GOP Chairman Ken Davis.

Also, former state House Speaker Denny O'Brien, former Lt. Gov. Robert Jubelirer and Lawrence County Commissioners Chairman Morgan Boyd.

RINOs are Democrats who posed as Republicans in order to get elected. They vote with the Republicans often enough to keep the facade going and Republican voters fall for it every time.

RINO advocates on our side refuse to accept that reality.

See, it’s not Democrats vs Republicans, or liberals vs. conservatives.
It’s Deep State toadies vs. Middle America.

Check out the Wikipedia entry on Doug Mastriano.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doug_Mastriano

Far right, eh? No bias there.

Note Wikipedia’s definition of far right…

“In United States politics, the terms “extreme right”, “far-right”, and “ultra-right” are labels used to describe “militant forms of insurgent revolutionary right ideology and separatist ethnocentric nationalism”, such as Christian Identity, the Creativity Movement, the Ku Klux Klan, the National Socialist Movement, the National Alliance, the Joy of Satan Ministries, and the Order of Nine Angles. These far-right groups share conspiracist views of power which are overwhelmingly anti-Semitic and reject pluralist democracy in favour of an organic oligarchy that would unite the perceived homogeneously racial Völkish nation. The far-right in the United States is composed of various Neo-fascist, Neo-Nazi, White nationalist, and White supremacist organizations and networks who have been known to refer to an “acceleration” of racial conflict through violent means such as assassinations, murders, terrorist attacks, and societal collapse, in order to achieve the building of a White ethnostate.

Yeah, totally fair account of Doug Mastriano.

Ah yes, the midget Charlie Dent who enjoys marching in Celtic Fest parades because he’s taller than the elementary school kids.

Many on this list, especially Robert Jubelirer have been known RINO’s for many years. Just like Arlen Specter, who had such a gigantic ego, he commissioned a statue of himself BEFORE he was fed to the worms.

Charlie Dent in his head, will be cremated because he knows what awaits his corps when he goes under.

This is a disgrace

The real disgrace are the Republican voters who vote for people like them. Never vote for a RINO. Sit on your hands before you do.
