Backflip: Jon Tester Now Refuses to Back Kamala Harris
Breitbart ^ | 08/23/2024 | Sean Moran

Posted on 08/23/2024 8:13:01 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Sen. Jon Tester (D-MT) on Thursday refused to endorse Kamala Harris’s bid for president one day after saying it is more important to elect her than his own reelection as Montana’s senior senator.

Tester hosted a press conference in Missoula and revealed he does not want to endorse Harris because he does not want to “nationalize” his reelection.

“I’m not going to endorse for the presidential, and I’ll tell you why, because — two reasons — because I’m focused on my race, and number two, people want to nationalize this race, and this isn’t about national politics. This is about Montana,” Tester said.

There is nothing “national” about the US Senate seat until he votes the national Democrat party line—every time.

Lol.

Tester was elected because the Democrat Governor of Montana at that time, Brian Schweitzer, openly rigged the election.

Schweitzer even bragged about his cheating at a convention of lawyers.

Be sure to thank him for Obamacare.

Kamala is radioactive.

Let's be honest, Kamala is not even close to being a serious candidate, not to mention the process was undemocratic.

If her voters weren't either stupid or requiring more promised handouts she would be at 20% in the polls.

Now, if Jon Tester thinks THIS promise (which he does not intend now or ever to honor) will give him a shot at holding the Senate seat, well, nobody OWNS any legislative position, though a few may arrogate that privilege to themselves from time to time. Serving beyond two terms tends to lodge this notion in the minds of some.

Take the pension and go home, Jon. You are not indispensable.

I think his opponent is a nice looking special forces guy.

Young, handsome, and lively.

He is on the Republican hit list every cycle. I wonder if they finally will be able to knock him off.

I’m thinking Montana republicans are smarter than to play Charlie Brown to Lucy Tester, but we’ll see. Go Sheehy!

Kamala Harris and Joe Biden are proxy office holders, a reminder from the unelected permanent government that it is they, not we the people, that run things as they see fit for their own interests. The gov gang in charge kinda gets a good chuckle out of things like elections and congress.

Your last sentence describes it perfectly. Except it would be 8%
