NY-SD18: DSA star Julia Salazar wins the Democratic primary.

12. Well...it was oppo research intended to do harm to her campaign, and some of those "facts" were

flimsy.

So though, were some of Salazar's own claims which she stretched from little tiny elements of truth to disingenuous purpose. Of everything I read, the one thing, if it can be validated, that I found the most troubling is a post she made, not as herself, but with the intention of giving credibility to an argument she was making in which she supposedly claims lifelong Jewish heritage. She did not do that as herself, the candidate, but it does suggest that she is willing to embellish or relate things in a way that she thinks is most politically expedient. That's irritating, and not exactly the things I loved most about Clinton either, from the hot-sauce in her purse, to landing under fire.

Hopefully she doesn't learn the wrong lessons from her victory, or she's going to implode and hurt progressivism in the process.
