DC: A longtime lawyer for former President George W. Bush plans to run for U.S. Senate in Minnesota as a Democrat, according to a filing with the Federal Election Commission (FEC).
Painter, 56, is listed a Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in the state of Minnesota on the FEC website and has raised nearly $15,000 as of March 31. Painter posted on Twitter Thursday to announce a press conference where he plans to make an important announcement about the Minnesota Senate race. read more
This lawyer turned his coat years ago. He has just decided to come out of the Liberal Closet so that he can appeal to the Social Democrats and Progressives that won’t vote for him anyway. Suing President Trump and losing will only get you so many votes in Minnesota. Maybe Jeb Bush will endorse him. That will work wonders for his campaign.
Coming out of the political closet at long last. But then again the only difference between Bush and the left thinkers is how he chose to label himself. It stands to reason that the circle Bush surrounded himself with would be loaded with squishy mutts like this one.
Nothing surprising. Just the S.S. Uniparty shuffling the deck chairs.
Man the torpedoes!!
Speaking of fingers…I’ve heard of finger painters, but never heard of this Dick Painter before.
That’s the DFL, Democrat Farmer Laborer. You’d know it as the Scandinavian Socialist Communists.
Ethics+Lawyer+Bush in the same sentence? Say no more. He could run on the MAGA ticket and I still wouldn’t trust him. He’s been the NeverTrump mouthpiece for CNN/MSNBC since 1/20/17, espousing his interpretation of Trump’s “numerous ethical” violations. Funny he seems to have overlooked those of his previous boss.
