<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Jamaal Bowman, one of the more outrageous members of the so-called “squad,” lost his bid for reelection. ; He was defeated by county executive George Latimer, a moderate Democrat – in one of the rare cases in which a Black Democrat is defeated by a White Democrat in a party primary.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Bowman was controversial for his over-the-top behavior. ; He was an impassioned antisemite, who rarely passed up an opportunity to express his criticism of Israel and his disdain for Jews. ; He gained negative notoriety for pulling the fire alarm in the Capitol Building to delay a vote.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Nothing he has said or done in the past, however, surpasses his pre-primary election performance at a rally of supporters – a small rally. ; He pounced around the stage in an unhinged rant against all those he sees as enemies – mostly Jews, Republicans and rich folks.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">He screamed a series of (expletives deleted) into the microphone – mostly f-bombs. ; He performed like a WWE wrestler – rolling up the sleeves on his t-shirts to expose his oversized biceps. ; His rant was threatening. ;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">While Bowman used the f-word with the frequency of a Mafia boss in a rage, he is not alone in dropping the f-bomb in otherwise civil conversations. ; Vice President Harris dropped the f-bomb when talking about university prejudice against Asians. ; She said sometimes you have to “kick the f-ing door down.” ; In talking about Obamacare, then Vice President Biden was caught on an open mic saying the programs were “a big f-ing deal.” ; Political potty mouthing is bipartisan. ; When talking about the poor quality of education in America’s segregated inner cities, President Trump lamented that “we can’t build a f-ing school in Brooklyn.” ; None of these were as extreme as Bowman.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Bowman was not performing alone on stage. ; Sharing the spotlight were Vermont’s socialist Senator Bernie Sanders and fellow squad member, New York Congresswoman Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez. ; Rather than exit stage-left out of embarrassment, Sanders and AOC participated fully in the show – with AOC screaming hopping up and down across the stage like a cheerleader at a prep rally. ; Sanders was more subdued, but then again, he is 82 years old.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I have seen innumerable political rallies over the years, but nothing compared to the vulgar and unhinged exhibition that the Bowman/Bernie/AOC trio put on. Fortunately, Democrat voters were not impressed. They booted Bowman from Congress by a crushing margin. As Lincoln once noted, you cannot fool all the people all the time – especially when you act like a deranged fool. Congress, the Democratic Party and America are better off without Bowman.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So, there tis.</p>

The Squad loses Jamaal Bowman … America wins
