quote:

A commercial airline pilot and military veteran announced Tuesday that he’ll try to unseat U.S. Sen. John Kennedy in Louisiana’s 2022 election.

Luke Mixon, a 42-year-old Democrat who lives in Baton Rouge, says he’s trying to keep Kennedy from a second six-year term because he doesn’t believe the Republican senator has been representing Louisiana’s interests in Washington.

“Our infrastructure is crumbling and communities are flooding, but Sen. Kennedy voted against billions of dollars to improve our roads and protect Louisiana communities from natural disasters,” Mixon said in a statement. “Health care costs are bankrupting families, yet Sen. Kennedy voted to end coverage for over half a million hardworking people in our state.”



This guy is mad because Kennedy didn't vote for that disastrous "infrastructure bill." I respect no white man who is a democrat.

quote:

He ended his military service in February, after working as the commanding officer of a Navy fighter squadron based in New Orleans.


VFA-204 for anybody interested.

Hope he enjoys the 38-39% of the vote he will receive.

"Former fighter pilot"

This is the kind of guy that would Napalm rural American towns and wouldn't lose a wink of sleep over it.

What airline does this guy fly for?

A white male, former military guy and he’s a fricking Democrat? Talk about a cuck.

I certainly do not underestimate Louisiana's power to elect him. Look at your governor.

How about this: I don’t respect any adult who is a Democrat because they do not possess common sense, logic, independent thought, or the ability to reason without feeling.

I get that from an everyman’s perspective military service accounts for a lot but being a fighter pilot doesn’t mean you anything about public policy. This is similar to McGrath’s platform in KY, where she harped on being a Marine.

Kennedy is an Oxford grad, lawyer, law professor, former Revenue Secretary, and former State Treasurer. The resumes are not comparable.
