One of the House’s Worst Democrats May Be Next To Lose His Primary

Updated: POLITICS

One of the worst Democrats in Congress appears to be on the verge of losing his primary by a lot. You like recognize this doofus – Rep. Dan Goldman of New York. He’s trailing primary challenger former New York City Comptroller Brad Lander by double digits:

Former New York City Comptroller Brad Lander (D) is leading incumbent Rep. Dan Goldman (N.Y.) in the Democratic primary for New York’s 10th District by more than 20 points, according to a new survey.

In the Emerson College Polling/PIX 11 poll, 56.6 percent of respondents said they would back Lander while 23.1 percent said they support Goldman and 20.3 percent were undecided.

Lander launched his bid to challenge Goldman late last year, shortly after losing the party primary for the New York City mayoral race.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D), who won that race, has backed Lander’s bid for Congress, saying in a post on the social platform X in February that the former comptroller “has spent his career taking on big fights for New York’s working families.”

Shortly after Lander’s announcement, Goldman declined to comment on the former comptroller’s decision to challenge him in the Democratic primary.

“I’m not really thinking about this right now. I’m in Washington, really focused on making sure that health care will not be taken away from millions of people,” Goldman said during an appearance on PIX11’s “Politics Daily.”

Goldman served as the lead counsel for House Democrats during the first unsuccessful impeachment attempt against Trump. As a member of Congress, his performance has been a disaster. He was chosen as the face of the attack-dog wing of his party, but he is pathetic at it.

Two years ago, he targeted a parent who lost a child to violence, which backfired spectacularly. Worse, his attempts to discredit IRS whistleblowers in 2023 arguably strengthened the case for the special counsel investigation into Hunter Biden during a self-destruct.

He’s a piece of something, alright.

Law school prof and legal expert Jonathan Turley described the hearing as one in which Goldman did “Dresden-level damage” to the Bidens.

It’s too bad this punk will be replaced with another Democrat, but this awful human being needs to be out of Congress nonetheless.
