Rep. Navarro on Cozying Up To Trump: "Damn Toot!"

  • 7 Comments
  • by: Colorado Pols

We took note of the photo proudly posted to social media by Republican Rep. Clarice Navarro of Pueblo from a recent campaign swing through Denver by presidential nominee Donald Trump–running in a competitive district full of the kinds of voters likely to find Trump, well, repulsive, Rep. Navarro proudly sucking up to the GOP’s controversial nominee could be considered politically very risky.

Well folks, Rep. Navarro wanted our readers in particular to know she ain’t worried:

And that is indeed a much better quality photo of Rep. Navarro with Donald Trump, everybody! This one should print out much better on Democratic opponent Jason Munoz’s mail pieces. Like we’ve said, the danger of Navarro publicly linking herself to Donald Trump is that it forces her to own Trump’s prodigious baggage–meaning that Trump’s own popularity (or lack thereof) is what makes these photos toxic or not. Photos with a Latina Republican lawmaker are of course good for Trump, but we don’t see how they help Navarro much.

The downside, however, is as big as Trump’s gap in the polls. Trump’s downward trajectory does not inspire confidence in Navarro’s judgment.

    1. Wasn't "finding a way to legalize millions" the very thing his rabid xenophobic and racist blocs wanted the wall and all the deportations to prevent?

      Did I just miss something?
