(6 years ago)US Congressman from New York and Kosovo's great friend Eliot Engel on Sunday has hired the famous Congressman Alexander Ocasio-Cortez, who gave his oponent support in the preliminary race é even went so far as accused him of behaving like a dictator. Ocacio Cortez gave [...]
Ocacio Cortez gave support to teachers Jamaal Bowman last week, saying he was more connected to the district and could represent him better.
In a Twitter distribution video, Engel, who is also chairman of the Convention Foreign Affairs Committee, was furious about the Congressman's animation in question, there is Periscope.
This is not a dictatorship. This is democracy,” said 73-year-old Engel.
We shouldn't have a person, from above, even though you talked to him who you think should determine who should be selected, he went on.
Ocasio-Cortez himself had caused big friends in the United States when he took Joe Crowley's seat in the 2018 race.
Political commentators believe there are powerful parallels between Crownley and Engel, who has been very passive in his district in March and April during the face of the coronavirus.
Last week he returned to the Bronx, but caused shock in a scandal when he was shot by local television, saying he didn't really make them for protests against systematic racism in the US unless he had elections.
Engel's gaffes have given a great advantage to his Bowman opponent.
Engel has been in this position since the end of 1989. /Periscope
