Everyone's Favorite Half-Black, Jew-ish Tubby Lying Queen: Part 5 of the George Santos Thread

Continuation of the fat liar draq queen Congressman.

Related thread below.

People keep saying it was a traditional Democratic district to begin with are ignoring that the lines were redrawn before this election and it became more Republican. And it was not Republican gerrymandering. The Democrats in Albany gerrymandered all the districts so badly that a court stepped and redrew the lines. But even in the old district prior to the Democratic congressman before Santos it had been long represented by a very popular Republican Peter King who retired. But I don’t know what King’s district lines looked like. My guess is that it is. “Purple” district. If the GOP can induce King to return they might hold it.

by Anonymousreply 1February 24, 2023 10:31 PM

No, King was on the south shore. This district was represented by Steve Israel (D) and Tom Suozzi (D) since 2000 prior to being redrawn.

by Anonymousreply 2February 25, 2023 12:24 AM

Pete King was the rep for NY-03 until 2013, not 2000. It’s a swing district that has mostly voted Democratic in the past decade.

King was a decent old fashioned Republican and a union supporter.

by Anonymousreply 5February 25, 2023 12:53 AM

King was anti-gay and voted against us whenever he could. I called his office and wrote letters in the 90s when Long Beach was still part of -03. He wrote back a very cordial letter hoping I might overlook those issues and find areas where we agreed. But I still voted against him.

On non-gay issues he was a voice of reason in the Republican Party. He voted against the Clinton impeachment and for 9-11 survivors.

[quote]Sitting beside Santos, smirking, is his bald and bearded 31-year-old “director of operations.” His name is Vish Burra. He’s a former drug dealer from Staten Island who, while he worked for Steve Bannon, was the guy you went through if you wanted to check out the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop. He also did crisis comms for Matt Gaetz, and, along with Santos, was part of a mini-MAGA cabal that took over the New York Young Republican Club. The club is run by Burra and Santos’s buddy, Gavin Wax.

This is good...
