He's always gotten the endorsements from the Dem hierarchy in his elections and, gotta say, voted almost all Dem, but all with his hefty dose of Faux Propaganda Network appearances and criticizing the Dem administrations (mostly about Border?) . He's in the Laredo, TX, border district. HIs latest primary contestants have been young, Progressive women, and they were said to be sure fire losers to outright Wingnuts from the Big Ranch/Oil? owners of the power establishment there. Seems like he must have reached out to Dear Leader for the pardon, since Dear wouldn't know him from the rest of his ignorant topics.
