Far left Texas Democrat James Talarico recently went completely missing, vanishing from the campaign trail for almost two weeks. The only explanation that was ever given was that he was suffering from the flu.
Despite this, Talarico boasted to a crowd this week about doing a town hall event on CNN, which was little more than a campaign infomercial, and said that when a person is running for office, they have to ‘show up’ for the interview.
Democrats do stuff like this because they have absolutely no fear that anyone in the media will call them out for it.
From Twitchy:
James Talarico is out here delivering a sermon on the sacred duty of “showing up for the job interview” as U.S. senator—complete with a rally video scolding Ken Paxton for partying in London on the Fourth of July and Dubai with alleged fugitives while dodging debate stages — yet the same guy who just vanished from the campaign trail for nearly two weeks with a suspiciously persistent “flu” that had Paxton’s team and half the internet circulating missing-person posters and demanding proof of life.
The Presbyterian seminarian who spent his time off the trail apparently too contagious (or too something) to face Texas voters now wants credit for attending a friendly CNN town hall, as if that erases the disappearing act right before early voting. Nice try, preacher boy; maybe preach that “show up” gospel to the mirror before you start pointing fingers at Paxton’s travel itinerary.
