Carl Paladino Stinks Up Buffalo, New York!

Buffalo's local racist Carl Paladino declares his intention to run for Republican seat being vacated by scandal proned Rep. Chris Collins (R-NY)/

The blue wave is a coming.

It seems like Republicans demanded Rep. Chris Collins (R-NY) to step aside for the sake of the party. Donald J. Trump's biggest supporter in Congress is facing 15 counts of federal crimes involving insider trading, securities fraud and illegal use of government expenses. While Collins maintains his innocence, I guess he was out of friends and supporters. The Republican House Congressional Campaign Committee severed funding for his campaign and now New York Republicans are scrambling for a replacement even though Collins remains on the ballot.

His seat is now going to be considered a toss up now that he has exited the race. Now it's not just Collins seat but Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) and Rep. Tom Reed (R-NY) are up for grabs. The seats are considered possible pick ups thanks to Collins.

Now enter Carl Paladino.

The Buffalo area business mogul who always seems to cause outrage within the area.

Paladino is now interested.

Paladino was removed from the Buffalo/Erie County School Board last year after he was sharing on social media, racist memes about Barack and Michelle Obama.

Now the perennial loser is running for the seat that Collins is giving up.

New York Republicans are scrambling to find a candidate who could replace an already sealed nominee on the ballot.

Fun fact: Paladino is cousin-in-law to Rep. Brian Higgins (D-NY), the lawmaker who serves Buffalo and Niagara Falls. Maybe progressives should find a way to get rid of Higgins as well. Conservative Democrats are Republicans who run in Democratic districts. They switch parties if Republicans take control of Congress.
