Schumer credits Trump for Suozzi win — as Dems cite ‘proof’ they can flip border script
NY Post ^ | 02/14/2024 | Ryan King and Steven Nelson

WASHINGTON — Prominent New York-area Democrats celebrated Rep-elect Tom Suozzi’s Tuesday night victory over Republican rival Mazi Pilip as a sign that they can win the US-Mexico border policy debate while tying swing-district rivals to ex-President Donald Trump.

“There were reports that Republicans hired snow plows in Republican precincts to make it easier for voters, but Suozzi won because no matter what, Republicans couldn’t plow through their biggest obstacle, Donald Trump,” Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) told reporters.

Trump “blocked a bipartisan deal to strengthen our border and stem a crisis and voters knew it,” Schumer said.

RE: and the GOP voters didn’t bother to vote.

Why try something new? Passivity is still their thing. Losing.

Why Try to Change Me Now
Sung by Frank Sinatra

I’m sentimental, so I walk in the rain
I’ve got some habits even I can’t explain
Could start for the corner, turn up in Spain
Why try to change me now?

I sit and daydream, I’ve got daydreams galore
I’ll go away weekends, leave my keys in the door

My kind of crazy world goes passin’ me by
So, let people wonder, let ‘em laugh, let ‘em frown
You know I’ll love you ‘til the moon’s upside down
Don’t you remember I was always your clown?

Don’t you remember I was always your clown?
Why try to change me?
Why try to change me now?

The GOP lost last night, because after putting up a complete POS last time, the lead to the situation that required the special election in the first place, voters were NEVER ever going to choose GOP again to replace the person the GOP should have never ran in the first place.

Its really no more complicated than that. Actions have consequences, you put up someone one is such a complete POS that they get expelled from the house... something that has only happened (now) 6 times in history, you really thing those same voters are going to vote for your parties replacement for them?

The GOP of NY didn’t even do the most basic vetting of this guy, and set up the situation that lead to all this, you really think the voters were going to reward them for that big of a EFF up? Hell no.

There was ZERO chance the GOP was going to win that election regardless of who they ran.

People trying to tell you this is some bellweather for the fall are just idiots. This district has only voted GOP for president once since it was put into its current configuration and that was GWB’s re-election year. Every other presidential election it has voted D... to try to say this district is a bellweather at all is laughable, and to try to claim this particular special election is indicative of anything in the national politic is just moronic.

The upcoming election is going to be a bloodbath against the GOP. Nothing has changed. Sure Trump and down vote candidates will get a incredible amount of votes but the DNC vote stealing shenanigans will prevail.

“Nope. Suffolk County only went for Trump by a few thousand votes.“

In New York that’s over half.

You’re looking for what? 100%?
