Hillary Clinton has made a rare move by backing the primary opponent of a sitting House Democrat in New York, sparking considerable backlash from some in her party.

The one-time Senator from New York endorsed Westchester County Executive George Latimer for the congressional seat that is currently held by Representative Jamaal Bowman.

'With Trump on the ballot, we need strong, principled Democrats in Congress more than ever,' wrote Clinton on X on Wednesday.

principled Democrats

An oxymoron, if there ever was one.

No wonder democrats are stunned, when she talks about imaginary things.

[sheana]

That’s gotta be racist! Choosing the white guy over a black guy. Racist!!

[Flavious_Maximus]

“...strong, principled Democrats...”

Guess which word does not belong.

[lee martell]

Hillary thinks “I’m a Kingmaker!”

"“...strong, principled Democrats...” Guess which word does not belong."

None.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

I think he helped garner support for her Senate run as a NY RAT party County chairman so this is probably payback or similar?

[Eccl 10:2]

But he has STRONG Democrat principles!!!"

[Rinnwald]

Strong, principled move by Hillary, or Latimer’s check cleared.

You decide.

[jjotto]

Yes, Latimer is an old-style corrupt insider. Hillary supported him a few years ago too.

[FlingWingFlyer]

I thought Jamaal was going to go be a fireman.

> That’s gotta be racist! Choosing the white guy over a black guy. Racist!! <

The ghost of Klansman Robert Byrd told Hillary to do it.

[PAR35]

The party leadership has decided to liquidate the Strasserites?

[butlerweave]

Who who and who ? LOL

[Publius]

Clinton faction versus Obama faction.

[SunStar]

Jamal Bowman refuses to stop acting like a street communist, so the elites are replacing him. It’s as simple as that.

[rdcbn1]

My only shock here is that she is not trying to sneak Chels into the seat

[hecticskeptic]

Jamal Bowman refuses to stop acting like a street communist...
~~~~~~~~~~~
And in what way is that a problem? Oh.... it’s ok to be a communist, just not act like one.

[Macoozie]

Wide-Eyed Latimer has been a Shillery Pal for a long time.
No surprise there.
Politically, he fits the NY-16 district quite well.

Bowman is a fringe DEI stooge.

The take away?
Jamaal is toast.
Burnt Toast.

Hey UK, it’s not “Bowman’s Seat”.
It belongs to The People.
