Show-Me Democratic Party Dismay As Hassan Piker Campaigns For Cori Bush

For those who don't know his work . . . A description according to AI . . . 

Hasan Piker is a prominent American Twitch streamer, political commentator, and activist known for his outspoken far-left, socialist, and anti-imperialist views. 

Now here's the important part . . .

THE DEMS DON'T WANT HASANABI AS THEIR MIDTERM CHAMPION DESPITE HIS EPIC ONLINE AUDIENCE!!!

 It gets worse . . .

Whilst the GOP can disavow Nick Fuentes as a cornflake who has been banned from most platforms, Piker is a more powerful progressive online influncer than ANY OTHER DEMOCRATIC PARTY ADVOCATE. 

And so  . . . 

Despite efforts to cancel him, outrage over his tough talk and allegations of antisemitism . . . 

Now Missouri Dems must deal with the reality of "complicated" Midterm campaigning . . .  

Piker recently touched down in Missouri to lend his star power to Cori Bush, who is looking to reclaim her position in the House after serving as the first Black woman to represent the state’s 1st Congressional District from 2021 to 2025. During her first term in office, Bush authored a bill calling for an “immediate deescalation and cease-fire in Israel and occupied Palestine.” In what was widely read as retribution, Bush was primaried by a Democratic opponent, Wesley Bell, who ended his own Senate campaign against Republican Josh Hawley for the run; Bell defeated Bush with the help of an unprecedented nearly $9 million in spending from the super PAC for the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC.

Now Bush is back, and like Piker, is unbowed: During the rally, she wore a T-shirt with her campaign slogan “FIGHT BACK” in big, bold letters. 

“I love seeing you all,” Bush told the May Day crowd. “I just don’t love why I keep seeing you all.”

Bush, who rose to prominence as an activist with the Black Lives Matter movement, quickly gained a reputation in office for bucking establishment Democrats — even outpacing other members of “the Squad” — and being outspoken in her criticism of party leadership.

On his wildly popular Twitch stream, Piker has argued that “80 percent of the Democratic Party now agrees with the principles that Cori Bush was defending at a time when it was inopportune for her to do so.” Piker’s visit to St. Louis coincided with weeks of national media scrutiny condemning the popular streamer’s views as antisemitic, culminating in Reps. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., and Josh Gottheimer, D-N.J., pushing a bipartisan bill to explicitly denounce Piker.
