🐔LAWLER CHICKENS OUT: Abandons Delusional Statewide Fantasies, Opts to Lose In His Own Backyard🐔

After months of thirsty, desperate statewide teases, Mike Lawler has finally come back down to earth and scrapped his delusions of a run for New York Governor. After spending the better half of the year failing to build any real momentum, Lawler has realized that nobody wants him in Albany (or anywhere else for that matter).

Lawler not only failed to secure his party’s coveted endorsement of Donald Trump, he couldn’t even win the support of his own GOP colleagues in the House. So as expected, Lawler is kissing the ring and returning home to run in NY-17, where his constituents are already eagerly waiting to show him the door.

While Lawler was busy chasing headlines and courting donors for a fantasy campaign he could never win, he was MIA at home—ignoring the very people he claims to represent.
