Washington Former Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos, who pleaded guilty in 2017 to lying to the FBI about his contacts with individuals tied to Russia during the 2016 campaign, is running for Congress in California.
Papadopoulos filed paperwork Tuesday to run as a Republican in California's 25th District following Democratic Rep. Katie Hill's resignation on Sunday amid allegations of improper relationships with staffers. While Papadopoulos has not publicly issued a statement announcing his congressional bid, he had repeatedly teased a potential campaign in recent days on Twitter ahead of Tuesday's Federal Election Commission filing.
I wish the best to Papa. Maybe he’ll get to help drain the swamp in California. But, man that’s going to be hard to do when 90% of the people in the state are corrupted.
He'll win
How the hell ? If you cant get a job because you were arrested, then you should be banned from running for any office. Get lost you crook.
Is Corey lewandowski his campaign manager?
BrianKarem So some felons can’t vote... but they can hold office How does that make sense?
First off, he’s definitely involved in a crime of some sort here. Second, how do we unload this piece of crap and FLUSH him!?
What is his transferable skill and experience?
Fuck George!
Wow. That's crazy.
The perfect Trump candidate.
How can he run if he was in jail isn’t he a convicted felon
Yeah that's who'd I want to vote for a convicted liar. Nope.
Make sure this doesn’t happen
OMG. is he on prison release to run?
BrianKarem Some folks have the balls for bull💩!
People in Florida aren’t allowed to vote but this guy is allowed to hold public office?
Coincidences take a lot of planning MalcolmNance
BrianKarem Does he live in California?
Nope. Not going to happen.
BrianKarem Funny. I would never of thought of being charged with a felony for lying to the FBI, doing 2 weeks in prison, and 2 years probation, as a springboard to a Congressional career. You do you, George.
I certainly hope California is woke. A hint: you gave Nunes and see what a disaster he is. A traitor to his own Committee. George has already shown you what he is. Believe his actions. He was deep in corruption and was convicted for it. Do you need another criminal in office?
BrianKarem Does that guy, for even a second, look like someone that would give a shit about his constituents?
BrianKarem I thought that if you are a convicted of crime and went to jail, you couldn’t vote anymore... nonetheless run for a house seat! 🤔
There needs to be a rule that if you are charged with a crime & found guilty,you shouldn't be allowed to run for any office & what's even more messed up He probably will win cause many voters are not that bright & so gullible they believe anything
you mean the FAKE RUSSIAN story pushed by YOU every day for over two years ? You should be held accountable for the LIES you’ve told the American people
Not a good candidate!
LAUGHABLE
A suspicious person might feel Papadopoulos' 10/17 endorsement of Trump in front of 2,500 people in Florida was timed to coincide with the release of the Red State article a day later.🤔
US politics
How can that be allowed?
cnn, have started blackmailing him already?
Let’s see how that goes...
Is an ex-convict allowed to run for office in California?
This country is getting sadder by the day!
You mean he was set up by the fbi.
Effer. Never. Never. Let him run. That means Dems win.
Don’t worry it’s just Congress! Hillary Clinton run for President and Joe Biden is vying for same! 🤣🤣🤣
Just go 69 Katie
Sooooo. You CAN lie to the FBI and run for office?! Cool! I feel safe.
Go get em papa
Wtf
Gross.
Why?
Never Popadopolis or anyone like him who worked for the THING currently temporarily occupying the Oval Office!
joe_warmington You forgot Rep. Katie Hill, a sexual predator........🙄
Let zgod forbid such a conclusion
DOUCHE
It doesn’t get any better. A guy who lied to the FBI to save himself and realDonaldTrump is running as GOP to fight corruption. Unreal!
Convicted Felon? White Male Criminal Goes to Jail & Runs for Office! while Ms. Hill Resigned because her Estranged Husband Used Revenge Porn With No Decency 2Support her Opponent? Why Do Women Always End Up Giving up Duly Elected Seat, While Even POTUS 45 Trump still in Office?
Lock him up again
Key words, he's a liar even under oath.
One Kevin McCarthy is enough for california.
LOL
🙄
That’s why you don’t take the high road! 👏 fight back! We are losing our democracy trying to be decent. It’s not time for that.
What?! A woman gets booted for having a consensual affair and might be replaced by a male felon? 😧
Aaawww hell nooooo 🤬
A lying criminal is more worthy? Women gotta be angels sent by God herself to be politicians. White men just have to be white men. Let’s change that, women are the majority. White women y’all ready to choose gender before race? We won’t leave you, we could do so much together!
Go George Go!
Seriously? We r in one very sad state as a country.
Politics have become another form of organized crime.
you mean the guy that was framed by the obama administration?
Another felon in DC
Shouldn’t those jobs be limited to non-criminals?
It all makes sense now
God. He looks so scuzzy already.
GeorgePapa19 there are already compromising photos of you circulating. Are you sure you want to go through this? There are pics.
The fuck
All of the lol's.
He tweeted the district was up for grabs 1 day *before* the Red State article ran. How did he know?
😂😂😂🤬🤬🤬
Well that seat is a slam dunk for the Democratic Party
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hopefully he wins.
Wow - didn’t even wait a day How long until we find out this was a GOP rat f’king scheme
Excellent news for a change! Go GeorgePapa19! Trump2020Landslide!
Hope he wins🇺🇸
So more criminals in our government! No!!!!
Lied to the FBI and trying to go to Congress. Business as usual. Gotta keep up the well-worn traditions I guess. Anybody got a headcount of how many Congress members who have not committed crimes every day since the day they were born?
I can't believe she resigned.
You would be clueless if you vote for this liar
Not a chance MYGUY.....TRAITOR
Those so easily fooled by one con man (the Individual 1 kind) can just as easily be fooled by another con man (the ex-felon kind).
California is the perfect place for him to represent in Congress.
GOOD
Oh goodie. Does that mean we get to hear more from Mrs. Poppadumb? She just cracks me up.
Fuck him
Oh no. What are we to do? Find someone with integrity to run against him.
Not possible.
some people just don't get it....
Perfect , another criminal as a politician . Just what this country needs
I find it difficult to believe you.
