A Democrat running for a US House seat in Pennsylvania offered praise for then-President-elect Donald Trump, called on Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel to resign and said progressives "are the least tolerant of anyone who disagrees with them" in a series of now-deleted tweets.

Northampton County District Attorney John Morganelli is running to replace retiring Republican Rep. Charlie Dent in what is now Pennsylvania's 7th District. Morganelli, who is a centrist Democrat running in a crowded field of six primary candidates, is backed by United Together, a group with reported ties with the bipartisan organization No Labels, and longtime Clinton associate Lanny Davis....

Suspicious. Clever way to put out there that he’s “a good one” to help him win in the general. Float it plant the notion then delete it. Look out for this one.

Agree. I don’t trust this one at all. Plant the seed that he’s a conservative democrat to get elected. He will then vote with 100% of the other democrats. They’re getting good at running to the center/right.

If he was at all conservative, he wouldn’t be running as a democrat.

I’m surprised that the Dems are letting him run. If he were elected, he would become another Pelosi lock-step supporter and drop all of his promises.

Hopefully the Republicans will nominate a good conservative to run against him and maintain control of the seat.

“..a centrist Democrat...”

Meaning he’s only slightly to the left of Lenin.

Ain’t no such thing, and he’s only doing that to get elected. Once in, he’ll revert true to form.
