Eleven years ago, Elise Stefanik ran as a moderate and became the youngest woman ever elected to Congress at the time. Glowing media attention followed. Her future was an ongoing discussion among politicos. Some openly wondered if she might be president someday.Two years later, she aligned herself with Trump and pledged her unfailing loyalty. Over the next decade, across the board, time after time, she abandoned her earlier political positions to get more in line with Trump. She supported him through two impeachments and the fallout over the Jan. 6th attack. Trump returns to power and nominates her for U.N. ambassador. A few months later, he withdraws her nomination instead of fighting for her, claiming he needs her in Congress due to the slim majority. So, she instead decides to run for Governor of New York, an uphill battle, to be sure, but she'll have the MAGA base behind her. She's challenged by Bruce Blakeman, a Nassau county executive few outside of New York have ever heard and who has limited name recognition *in* New York and who finished third in a GOP primary for the Senate back in 2010. Trump could have stomped out that bid and made it clear Stefanik was his pick. He declined to throw his weight behind her. There were other clues, like inviting Zohran Mamdani to the Oval Office and not-so-subtly throwing Stefanik under the bus when asked about her vicious attacks on Mr. Mamdani. Trump defended the Mayor-elect and made Stefanik look petty and unhinged by comparison, all while Mr. Mamdani stood behind him beaming. This signals to New York Republicans that they're free to get behind Blakeman, and they do. Stefanik is left twisting in the wind and realizes her chances of winning are slim.Ten days after Blakeman's campaign launch, Stefanik announced she's dropping her own bid and will not seek reelection to Congress. Nearly a decade of abandoning all her principles in service to Trump, and she's been left empty-handed.A greek tragedy.
>>524009667When Nikki Haley was running for president, the claim was getting sent to be the UN ambassador (which Haley was) was sort of a way to put people out to pasture anyway, like it's not a great sign. Also, Stefanik seemed to announce her gubernatorial campaign kind of early, which was also not a great sign.
>>524009667KWABTrump-Mamdani voters stay winning
>>524009667that's kind of sad. Oh Well. sleep with dogs and you get canine transmissible venereal tumors>>524010121>was sort of a way to put people out to pasture Yeah. Mike Waltz was responsible for the Signal chat leak so rather than sack him they made him UN ambassador. Waltz is dumb as a bag of hammers
>>524009667Good another rabid Ziowhore bites the dust.>>524010405>Mike WaltzAnother Ziowhore.>>524010121>Nikki HaleyAnother Ziowhore.(yes, they typically end up for at least a brief moment in the UN Amb spot: see picrel)
Useless woman who took up space that could’ve gone to someone useful. Who cares? She was a dogshit congressman and would’ve been a dogshit governor. She wasn’t even a good ally to the Trump admin, a total loser.
>>524009667And Trump just endorsed Blakeman hahahhaha it's all too funnyI genuinely think he doesn't like women he doesn't find attractive even if they're loyal
