The fact that pro Israelis were not jumping on the street protesting does not mean that they are not in majority. He committed political suicide.

An adult man that is too ignorant to mistake a fire alarm for a door handle should only have a job picking up trash along the highway.

[Borninasmalltown]

Wants to be in congress to represent Americans citizens yet doesn’t know the difference between a fire alarm and a door handle…that alone he doesn’t deserve to be reelected …😂

[MollyBrown-fi]

Jamaal Bowman did not have a problem with too much money when he won, only when he loses. Wasn't he the one who pulled the fire alarm to avoid a vote. If he has an issue with too much money in politics, he should have run on that premise.

[CarlAquaForce]

Oh please God, Cory Bush and AOC now.

[turdferguson]

Bowman wasnt fit for office and was an embarrassment, good to see him gone. He can go pull fire alarms and play the race card flipping burgers at McDonald's.

[jackiedewine]

Seriously? Blaming the Jews for his loss? It’s Bowman’s own behavior and his misguided radical racial stance that cost him the race.

[TheTimWadsworth]

Isn't this the same dude who doesn't know this difference between a fire alarm and a door handle??? LOL

[GrooberNedJardine]

This is the fire alarm dude, who should be in prison for that stunt . And his foul mouthed campaign which he turned into a Rap dance, he deserved to get the boot . He's a 🤡

[timantoine]

Bowman has a victim mentality, always blaming someone else for his short comings, bye bye! Money doesn't unseat them, their ignorant policies do.

[joehiden]

4 Alarm Fire Alarm Puller Blowman needs to stay out of DC. He is a terrible person.

[bricksbyficks]

Shock waves? He was down 17 points in the poles, what are these people smoking? No one thought he was gonna win because the poles are not that inaccurate

[tearl]

Definitely was a shock to Bowman and members of the Skank Squad.

[cheehee_]

Time to vote out the rest of the squad. Cori bush and rashida tlaib, yall are up next

[leeyang]

The people have spoken, they’re not blind, don’t let the door hit you on your way out. This dude is incompetent hasn’t done crap except pull the fire alarm, so much for a useless principal.

[Underduress]

Bye Jamaal. Look on the bright side. Now you’ll have plenty of time to learn the difference between a fire alarm and a door handle.

[stinkystu]

This feels like it was intended to be an olive branch to more moderate Democrats. It isn't enough. When the entire "squad" is gone, I will think about coming back, but It isn't likely.

[barcelonachair]

This is a dangerous precedent for Dems to set. The people's vote matter. You can't say elections results only matter when your guy wins. Pro Palestine groups yell the loudest online and in the streets but they are not going to show up to vote.

The average person cares about what is happening in their own city/country and wants their rep to help them with those issues.

[alphabetsoup]

Bowman forgot who the people were that backed him financially?

[jamielehman]

Democrats: TrUmP tElLs LiEs!!!

Also democrats: Jamal Bowman didnt mean to pull the fire alarm. He was confused and rushing. 🙄
