Congressman Nadler represents a sliver of lower Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights, along with a significant part of Bensonhurst that used to vote Republican --- In many ways he's as much a Southwest Brooklyn Congressman as Max Rose --- so why doesn't the Brooklyn GOP make a bigger deal about taking on Nadler --- at least on the issues ???
Case in point --- Nadler's recent refusal to disavow destructive rioters generally; tied in with his equally troubling outright denial concerning the very existence of ANTIFA
At this stage of national urban unrest, New York City is only momentarily better off than many other cities, most notably Portland, Oregon; Seattle, Washington and Chicago, Illinois --- so, having a benighted character like Jerrold Nadler tinkering with the levers of power as one of OUR representatives should be a matter of more than passing interest and concern
In the past few weeks, we have seen how quickly things could boil over in Bay Ridge involving BLM and ANTIFA types counter-demonstrating against the puny efforts of Marty Golden and Nicole Malliotakis to get some popular support for their side. Much of that happened in an area represented in Congress by Jerrold Nadler. So why no attempt to put Nadler's feet in the fire ?????
The answer is simple, nobody in the Brooklyn GOP has a clue how to engage the Democrats in the 21st Century --- instead they are frozen in the era of "Long Ago and Far Away."
I just saw some interesting video of Jerrold Nadler being accosted and questioned on the street. His speech and demeanor were indicative of a man who is quite unwell --- he waddle-walked like a penguin, and he was barely able to make a verbal utterance. Thus his non-sensical answers about the rioters and ANTIFA sort of fit the moment perfectly.
In the bigger national picture, Nadler is an Achilles' Heel --- but nobody is around to do the Paris number on him.
I'll say it again, the Brooklyn GOP needs to master the art and science of asymmetric guerrilla warfare --- the Brooklyn parts of Nadler's district are perfect to wage that fight.
In 2018 the GOP did take on Nadler. He got 82% of the vote.

ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 10:35 AM"
NAOMI LEVIN SEEMS LIKE A VERY NICE LADY --- BUT AN EFFECTIVE CANDIDATE, I DON'T THINK SO..... WITH NAOMI AS THEIR CANDIDATE, THE GOP DIDN'T TAKE ON JERRY NADLER IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM
In 2018 Naomi Levin ran in New York's 10th CD as a "Trump Republican" --- these are the neighborhoods that make up the 10th CD: most of it is in Manhattan and includes: the Upper West Side, Hell’s Kitchen, Chelsea, Greenwich Village, SoHo, TriBeCa, the Financial District, and Battery Park City; and in Brooklyn: parts of Borough Park, Kensington, Red Hook, Sunset Park, Bensonhurst, Gravesend and smaller parts of Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights. This might be as anti-Trump as a district can be..... Running openly as a pro-Trump Republican wan't just a mistake, it was insane in the 10th CD.
so running as a never trump republican would work?
ReplyDeleteRunning as a Trump Republican is insane in all 50 states.
ReplyDeleteNonsense, 518, pro-Trump Republicans running across this country might well take back the House of Representatives, hold onto control of the US Senate and win thousands of down ballot offices in state and local governments.
ReplyDeleteGerry O'Brien needs to get over his attacks on Trump. He may as well join the de Blasio, AOC crowd. No wonder marty golden gave him thr boot.
ReplyDelete7:36 must get his drugs from his local Republican Senate candidate.
ReplyDeleteIt's not Jerzy Oberintsky, it sounds more like Chuck Otey, another of the local "Never Trump" talking heads.
ReplyDeleteThey were wrong in 2016 and they are equally wrong now.
Marty gave him the boot because he exposed a convicted felon's connections to the Senator.
ReplyDeleteAlso: Trump's new Witch Doctor says alien DNA is being used on Americans.
Even Fox News polls show Trump and the GOP being annihilated this November.
ReplyDeleteThose polls show exactly what everybody opposing Trump is afraid of, like in 2016, Trump has huge un-polled support in battleground states; and like in 2016 Trump could be ahead even when polls show him behind.
ReplyDelete613 doesn't know very much science, all virus DNA could well be "alien" DNA. Stay thirsty, my friend.
ReplyDeleteAnd if they stopped polling altogether, Trump would be winning everywhere.
