Ted Lieu endorsed the MAGA candidate in my city council race
I previously posted that the mayor of El Segundo and current city council candidate Chris Pimentel is MAGA (https://www.reddit.com/r/SouthBayLA/s/3VBPC67nu7). Well to my great disappointment, Ted just endorsed him over the only registered Democrat and progressive in the race, John Pickhaver.
Can we talk about how much Ted Lieu sucks? I used to vote for him every single time without question, but he's done nothing to resist fascism in Washington DC except writing strongly worded letters and trolling. He's funded by corporations and pro-Israel lobbyists (https://whofundsmyrep.com/rep/ted-lieu?fbclid=IwdGRjcAVN8PBjbGNrBU3w6GV4dG4DYWVtAjExAHBkb2YFc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQMMzUwNjg1NTMxNzI4AAEe1--3ZNFTVD_v1ED8DptctkqguT-_4NHV5T5FqZjPa-zfSgp28B_U17dyJu0_aem_vLBK2MOjO3mj2leuYc4aZQ), and has voted to fund the military without limiting Trump's power.
