Democrat Ro Khanna says he’s pondering a 2028 presidential run, even if fellow party mate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez enters the race. He then moved from pondering to pandering by laughably declaring recent Texas Senate primary loser Jasmine Crockett a ‘brilliant’ Democrat.
Here’s more. (READ)
BASH: "Looking ahead to 2028, you've said you're seriously thinking about a presidential run. You just mentioned that you are a proud progressive. If your fellow progressive Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez runs, will you still run?"
REP. KHANNA: "It would have no bearing on my decision."
AOC or Ro Khanna? If elected, either would bear the mantle of President Gaslighter. Here’s Khanna with CNN’s Dana Bash on Sunday. (WATCH)

Khanna endorsed a Nazi for Senate in Maine. That would be featured in every ad against him.
Khanna gave us a sneak preview of what his presidency would be like. Here he is kissing up to Jasmine Crockett to enlist her to get out the black vote for James Talarico. That's not happening. (WATCH)
Ro Khanna calls Jasmine Crockett "brilliant."

Posters wished Bash had used the ‘brilliant’ moment to deliver an out-of-character ‘random act of journalism.’

Sadly, there's tens of thousands more "brilliant" people who drink their kool-aid.

The brilliance is blinding.
Commenters say Khanna can’t truly believe the nonsense he’s spewing about Crockett.
Is he serious?

This is why Democrats are so despised.
They lie.
And Biden was sharp as tac. All they do is lie it’s extraordinary. The worst part is we have so many dumb people in America now they believe them.

As if we needed another reason to think Khanna is a complete moron.

Ro's standards are so low he admires Nazis, communists and Jasmine.

Khanna should run for president just so we can watch him defending that terrible trifecta on stage during a Democrat primary debate. That would be brilliant.
