Another stunt candidacy like the one of Cindy Seehan.

I'd also advice the far lefties to calm down when it comes to their Chelsea Manning worship because they may end up looking like suckers, like they did after Julian Assange and Edward Snowden showed their true colors.

Plus, I have absolutely no problem with Cardin; he is a reliable Dem vote in the senate, and for anyone who says otherwise, show me a vote you're very upset with him about.

He endorsed Hillary, so that automatically makes him worse than Hitler.

For some crazy reason I feel like people in my state would still somehow find a way to vote for a literal traitor for Senator and make her win.

You have confused Maryland with Alabama.

Chelsea has been posting some of her policy positions on Twitter today and she's running very, very far left: she supports a universal basic income and dismantling ICE and Customs/border police. On January 10 on Twitter, she referred to ICE as "the new gestapo."

This isn't a realistic policy position and plays into the conservative strawman of the Left. Like it or not, ICE and CBP need to exist in some form because otherwise human trafficking and smuggling of endangered species and cultural treasures would run amok.

ICE is a corrupt entity ran and staffed by America's worst cops. It should absolutely be dismantled, with it's actually important duties shuffled off to better ran agencies.


Also UBI is no longer a very, very, far left position and hasn't been for a while.

This is the same kind of nonsense SYRIZA was advocating before winning the election.
The the Syria refugee crisis began and of course they reversed course instantly. Reality has it's own way to expose frauds and kooks.

If Manning was serious about serving then she should run for her local city or county council, or state legislature. By launching a primary challenge against a scandal-free and well liked incumbent she shows that she doesn't give a rat's ass and just wants the headlines.

Why are people surprised that Manning was so cozy with Cernovich and his Nazis?
I thought after the last two years everybody would be familiar by now with the Horseshoe Theory.

Horseshoe Theory is junk.

Reality disagrees with you.

Horseshoe theory is for hacks.

No it isn't. There is a reason why a fascist like Orban has become a folk hero in Europe among the anti-EU, populist, far-left parties.

If one feels an irresistible urge to vote for a convicted felon he can go and register as a Republican.
