This race just got more interesting. + national implications
Really, something is wrong with the Democrats there.Maryland is a mess. I guess we aren’t going to get the senate fillabuster now.
Yes, and no. I have a couple rental properties in Baltimore. I have always hand a fondness for the city since I stepped off a Greyhound bus back in 2004 and thought I was in North Philly. I’m just a guy that wants D.C. to get their statehood but who also understands American politics at play.Are you from MD?
The governor of Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro, was on the black radio station WURD this morning talking about ACT 40. He signed the law but he’s telling the host to holla at the Attorney General for clarity on the budget for the issue.Really, something is wrong with the Democrats there.
Hogan entering this race is a whole new ballgame. Alsobrooks was already running a struggle campaign, she's low on funds and just recently fired most of her campaign staff to bring in new people. Whatever DNC apparatus in Maryland that pushed all of the prominent political figures to endorse Alsobrooks, they really jumped the gun, because now with Hogan in the race she doesn't stand a chance.Hogan is definitely popular in the state...he can win...Fox News and the Repubs need to leave this race alone because their increased coverage will only hurt him...people like Hogan but this will only remind them that electing him is essentially helping those fuckers
Alsobrooks is in the fight for her life against Trone

I saw her first ad campaign about a week ago (followed immediately by an ad for Trone) and it was more identity politics bullshit about how most Senators are rich, white men and I'm not that. That shit just doesn't move the needle any more, she's running a stale paint-by-numbers Democratic campaign and what's worse she doesn't have the personality or name recognition to bring in any big prominent donors. She should step down and give this shit to Trone, at least he's got deep pockets enough to hang with Hogan. Since Moscow Mitch personally recruited Hogan for this we already know he's bringing not only name recognition but a fully funded war chest from the GOP donor Legion of Doom. With Trone's money and the endorsements that Alsobrooks nabbed prematurely, I think he would have a decent shot. Nonetheless, this race will be very interesting.
When you have the profile and charisma of a wet sponge...absolutelyWow-- "I don't care that the whole country is run by rich white people, she should not talk about the fact that she would only be the third black senator out of 100 overall, in fact she should get out of the way and let the rich white man win."
NO ! Fuck all that ! Being black or being a woman doesn't have Jack shit to do with coming up with a plan to solve problems. Ok you're a black woman, tf does that mean ? Tell me what you intend to do.Wow-- "I don't care that the whole country is run by rich white people, she should not talk about the fact that she would only be the third black senator out of 100 overall, in fact she should get out of the way and let the rich white man win."
I live in DC and I have seen like 4 David Trone ads on MSNBC, all with a black woman speaking for him. Why is that?NO ! Fuck all that ! Being black or being a woman doesn't have Jack shit to do with coming up with a plan to solve problems. Ok you're a black woman, tf does that mean ? Tell me what you intend to do.
“So this Republican jigaboo that it’s the tax rate that’s stopping business investment, it’s just completely faulty by people who have never run a business,” he said during a House Budget Committee hearing. “They’ve never been there. They don’t have a clue what they’re talking about.”The slur is among the derogatory terms used to caricature Black people. After being contacted by The Washington Post hours after the remark, Trone apologized in a statement.“Today while attempting to use the word bugaboo in a hearing, I misspoke and mistakenly used a phrase that is offensive. Upon learning the meaning of the word I was deeply disappointed to have accidentally used it, and I apologize,” the statement said.
From the quote, I actually believe him. But it's a terrible headline for Trone.
So what did he say?
He won the state twice as governor. So did Chris Custard.The Democrats need to go low on Hogan. He's got some dirt, and it's time to exploit it. He is way right of center politically. What'd he do with the transportation money he took from Baltimore? (put it into roads in the counties where he is a developer?)
So he wanted to say the destiny child song bug a boo?????jigaboo
"this Republican jigaboo that it’s the tax rate"
I've never even heard the word in real life, just a couple of rap songs.
So he wanted to say the destiny child song bug a boo?????
They have a song called bug a boo and that is exactly what he said he wanted to say instead of jiggaboo, young one…Destiny's Child did not invent that word, youngster...
Yeah, can’t say that. It’s not a rap song staple, but the old heads get triggered.jigaboo

Don't you realize young black kids seem anti-triggered at specific things? They'll play to every stereotype of us but call them gutless and they'll fake having a breakdown.Yeah, can’t say that. It’s not a rap song staple, but the old heads get triggered.
I like where this is going. Baltimore is locked in with PG. I love it.Don't you realize young black kids seem anti-triggered at specific things? They'll play to every stereotype of us but call them gutless and they'll fake having a breakdown.
