    Frankly I don't understand peoples problem with him. He's an elected representative for long Island.

    I can not think of a better representation of the area than a wannabee toughguy cry bully that literally every single thing that comes out of his mouth is complete and total horseshit.

    They say in a democracy you get the representation you deserve, I have never seen a better example of this.

    That's before you get into the fact that if dems had of done literally any amount of oppo research they could have spent the entire campaign just highlighting his various fake personas and ran on "literally zero things this person has ever said are true"

        It's almost like they're just controlled opposition and winning elections is the last thing they want to do.

          I don't fully disagree, although in this case I think it was just a pure fuck-up based on unreasonable over confidence.

          The democrats lost the House because they constantly run to the right (and they keep doing it!) or even if they keep messaging more left-ish policy they never act on it.

          They lost "always blue" seats in NY and CA to republicans because they just ASSUMED people would always vote blue there even when democrats consistently fumbled the bag... often times, seemingly on purpose.

          The four thousand year old racist husk at the lead of the party has made the most limp wristed, halfassed gestures towards doing shit that he only halfass promised in the first place to placate dems further to his left. It's insane they think people will keep voting AGAINST the literal Nazi party forever when the alternative is voting for the Diet Nazi party. You would think some degree of self interest (suppose there's a galaxy of conspiracy to examine there) would kick in at a certain point, but goddamn.

      I think this is how the "research" went.

      "Dakota, I told them I needed some petty cash for 'research'."

      "How much did they give you?"

      "I'll put it to you this way - do you want to go to a three star restaurant or a four?"
