Reply to comment by Cobey1 in Gym bashes Union League, goes to cocktail party there next week by MagnusUnda

I like (liked?) Gym as a progressive. But, c'mon. Even she took the L here and admitted that she screwed up. You don't critique one specific part of the old boy network and then show up at one of its events barely a week later. She done messed up.

Totally. I’m not disagreeing with that, Idek how her or her team didn’t see a red flag in going. There’s people from all campaigns and journalists just waiting to knock candidates out of this race. This kind of slip wasn’t helpful

Honestly, city governance is a mess right now. Being a (recent) member of city council is a strike against you in my book and that of many city residents right now. They are a HUGE part of the problem.

This slip up screams that she is playing the same old games of Philly politics. Glad handing the good ole boys for some cash at that racist shit hole is predictable but disappointing. It is a second strike in my book. I was equally or more upset about Rhynhart promoting crooked John Street's endorsement for similar reasons.

I just suspect she didn't think anyone would notice and she'd be able to keep up her act of just talking big.
