Oooh, Boy!

[Gidney N Cloyd]

1. There's SO many things I could compare Cenk to...

[sheshe2]

2. Ha!

[Cha]

7. lol

[Marcuse]

3. I'm old enough to remember when Ms. Chisum equated both McGovern and Nixon with a bowl of shit.

Had that actually happened.

[George II]

4. She did more than win her elections. She won several and was a leader in the House....

More importantly, she was a loyal Democrat and supported every Democratic Presidential candidate throughout her political career.

And, she never called our nominee either a half-bowl or full-bowl of shit.

She was a legend.

[sheshe2]

5. That she was, George.

Cenk shows his pathetic ass with that comment and, ugh, I watched the vid. He actually said it with a straight face.

[George II]

19. The next thing you know he'll be comparing her to Rosa Parks because....

.....she refused to congratulate Shontel Brown.

[Cha]

8. Thank you for that, George! That was before

I got into politics.. I was late to the party

cenk is gaslighting again.. sounds like he spends hours thinking of new ways to bullshit.

[Cha]

6. Of course he did.. Shontel Brown Beat

all of them.

[sheshe2]

9. She did it with a smile on her face.

She fought the good fight for all the people.

[Cha]

10. Sholntel Beat them with Grace & Dignity..

the only negative part was exposing NT's own words.. Turner owned that.

[sheshe2]

11. Turner owned that.

So true, Cha.

The nina set sail once more to a far off land. lala land.

[Cha]

12. lol

Not far enough..

[sheshe2]

13. I hear ya.

23. Someone actually sent out a mailer

Saying that Nina Turner was against the Democratic platform by saying that the platform is $15 minimum wage and Medicare for all implying that Turner is actually against those things. It was a dirty campaign especially when all the corporate money started flowing in the district.

I don’t like the Rising show but other shows covered the dishonest mailer.

[Cha]

24. Balderdash! .. Turner brought herself down..

with her NOT knowing the Difference between ".. a bowl of shit, trump, and Joe Biden".. and other crap over the years.

The Pastors in Ohio 11 called her out for "bearing false witness".. History caught up with NT & blew up in her face.

Turner brought herself down.

Thank Goodness We Have Shontel Brown Coming to Congress!

[NurseJackie]

26. She's a breath of fresh air. So much STYLE...

... you'll never catch her comparing ANYONE to a "BOWL OF SHIT". She's got too much CLASS to stoop so low.

[Cha]

27. Yes! A Breath of FRESH AIR is a Good

way to put it!

A Local Dem doing excellent work for her District.. HUD Sec, Marcia Fudge's Protege!

[George II]

25. Do you have an accurate accounting of just how much "corporate money" flowed into the district?

Fact is, much more was spent on Turner's campaign for her and against Brown than the other way.

Turner alone spent $2M more than Brown from their respective campaigns, and almost 90% of her contributions came from outside Ohio, about 25% from California alone.

This narrative about "corporate money" and "outside money" is getting tiring, particularly when it's said (not by you) by the candidates who are benefiting more than the opponent.

Money is money, and with current FEC rules in effect and lack of enforcement due to FEC funding, there are a lot of ways to get "corporate money" without saying it's "corporate money".

14. Did Shirely campaign for and help elect the GOP candidate?

Nina is not Shirley and this comparison is offensive

[sheshe2]

15. Agreed!

TY

[Cha]

16. It is offensive.. TY!

[NurseJackie]

17. 🙄😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[NurseJackie]

18. I don't recall Chisholm EVER comparing ANY Democrat to a BOWL OF SHIT!!!

I don't recall Chisholm EVER comparing ANY Democrat to a BOWL OF SHIT!!!

[George II]

20. What's really sad is that Turner even stole Chisolm's campaign slogan: "Unbought and unbossed"...

She used that when she first ran for Congress, and won, in 1968.
