Her main problem is that she should run as a Republican. They already have 4 convicted felons running.

Who?

Grimm is one; whereas Blankenship and Arpaio were convicted of misdemeanors.

Would you care to explain (or justify) this criterion?

Thanks.

Yes, especially against a popular incumbent.

Assuming she’s running to make a point, what might that point be?

And why not now?

She “killed us”?

While I think Manning is 100% unqualified for public office, it is not because of Manning being a transperson.

It does however have everything to do with being a traitor, criminal and wholly unqualified to hold a Senate seat.

Chelsea craves attention. Jane Stein might endorse her.

Chelsea, your 15 minutes were up 5 years ago. We dems did what we could for you getting you out of prison. That’s way more than enough…

Please go away and enjoy your life; the rest of us got this.

Stupid thing to say alan. The reason Manning shouldn’t get into this race isn’t because she’s trans, it’s because she’s an unstable grudgebearer that has proven her narcissism on multiple occasions. We’ve already got that disaster in the White House–my Maryland doesn’t need her crap in the Senate–or more importantly–derailing this Senate race with Stein-like idiocy.
