42. Not particularly surprising

Mon Jul 6, 2026, 04:58 PM

Monday

For months, there has been bad stuff coming out about this creep. Nazi tattoos. Sexting with 6 women while he was married?

And when people on DU posted that "gosh, this isn't good and the DNC needs to vet people better and make sure we have better quality people in senate races" and "if he loses this thing, it will be his own darn fault"....

responses were....

BUT HE'S THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE! Just shut up!

Not at all surprised by this. Very sorry for the victim and will not be at all surprised if there are more victims. Hope the DNC can find someone to replace him with, but this may well cost us the race.
