I think New Yorkers and George can foot this bill vs a retiree from Georgia.

i appreciate conway's fighting spirit, but he is more useful as a podcasting "never trumper"

i appreciate a lot of the never trumpers, but remember that they are conservative republicans under the blue spray paint.

my favorite never trumper : tim miller of bulwark

I don't live there so I don't have a dog in this primary fight, but he IS running as a dem, and he says to make sure Raskin has, basicly an enforcer for Congressional Investigations, and I'm down with that if that's what the voters there decide they want.

Instead of talking about how the latest criminal outrage contributes to the affordability problem, Conway says stick to the point: PROSECUTE ALL THE MAGA TRAITORS AND LAWBREAKERS FIRST. Otherwise, the traitors will keep coming back.

"Trump is a vampire."

My cousin lives in that district. Her response to Conway running was, “He doesn’t even live here. Screw the carpetbaggers.”

Looks like it will be an interesting primary.
