The Redemption Campaign

September 14, 2020 Blind Gossip

[Blind Gossip] While he is not running for office this election cycle, this man is prepping for a big political comeback!

His career and reputation collapsed after a tabloid-worthy event. However, rather than slink away, he has decided that he is going to make another go at public office.

His redemption tour is the beginning of his comeback. He was once a rising star in the Democratic Party and he can be once again. He can absolutely be Governor, Senator, or even President someday.

He sure is aiming high!

Of course, he had to do an obligatory round of rehab to prove that he isn’t the drug and alcohol addict he seemed to be.

That is being brushed aside as a one-time mistake and a betrayal by people he thought were his friends.

Will he admit that he is gay?

No.

That’s too much at one time, so he had to tweak his self-description.

Being gay would mean getting rid of his wife and she is an asset that he would be better off keeping.

Declaring himself as bisexual and having his wife by his side works better because it will get him sympathy and the LGBTQ vote.

Well, he certainly is a tweaker!

With President Donald Trump and Vice President Joe Biden demanding all of the airtime right now, the timing of this is a bit odd.

Doing this so close to a Presidential election will only get him five minutes of publicity. It also distracts from his party’s star candidate.

Then again, maybe that’s the objective.

Five minutes of distraction plus this will all seem like old news once he starts campaigning for his next job.

    Gillum. He did come out as Bi which is a huge deal for an African-American candidate. Of course he’s gay but that would be too much. It’s pretty amazing that we came so close to having a tweaker escort hiring gay man as a Governor.

    I am from Florida & the state is a peculiar mixed bag of contradictions. There are a lot of drugs and aged Conservatives who take liberties with the Medical marijuana. & gay friendly cities but there are also strong MAGA/Pence type areas . Andrew Gillum has about 10 years of work to overcome that scandal ,if he can. Meth is looked down on . I don’t think FLA or the nation will ever be Penced so Bi might not be a problem but still the meth ?

    My first choice is former Tallahassee mayor Andrew Gillum.

    A stint in rehab is good for him physically,
    emotionally and spiritually. Coming out as bisexual is also good for him emotionally too.

    When he runs for office again in the future, this won’t merit much discussion since Mayor Gillum has been open and upfront.

    I’d suggest running for congress first and making a name for himself & demonstrating achievements in the House before running for the Senate or Governor.

    Andrew Gillum.

    Doing his little redemption tour now makes it old news when he tries to make a real comeback. The amount he distracts from Biden is minimal. Probably best to set his sights on a moderate goal. He’s young so he has time.

    Andrew Gillum former mayor of Tallahassee. He was found over dosing on meth in a motel room with his “friend” who happens to be a male escort and porn star. Definitely a candidate for higher office lol. I hope Floridians are smart enough to not vote for this guy but it is Florida.

    Andrew Gillum the former corrupt Mayor of Tallahassee who lost the gubernatorial race to Ron DeSantis.

    Politician: Andrew Gillum announced with his wife that he is bisexual.

    Strategy: Good strategy because his revelation will be buried in the National news because of natural disasters and presidential race. As for political future.. there’s a saying in politics “Don’t get caught with a dead woman or a live man.” I wish him good luck but he’s from Florida and I can’t see their voters forgetting this.

    I cannot see this working – but stranger things have happened.

    Nobody cares if you are gay. Come one, this is 2020.

    You were caught in a cheap hotel room + with a gay prostitute + drugs + NAKED

    I don’t think he realizes what the issue is.

    As to the wife- she looks so pitiful – sad.

    It’s gotta be Andrew Gillum. I don’t know enough about him to form an opinion about his future, but I wouldn’t define him by one event.

    Politician: Andrew Gillum, former mayor of Tallahassee and was the Democratic choice for Governor in 2018.

    It be interesting to see where the next few years leads him.. (i voted for him for governor) He needs to let what happened in the spring blow over.. Saying he’s bi works to all advantages but it shouldn’t be what he’s about.

  56. JoeyG1390 says

    September 14, 2020 at 6:17 pm

    Andrew Gillum Democrat candidate for Governor of Florida.
    Bi is the new gay & I don’t think most people really care about who he sleeps with. I’d be more concerned about the drugs/alcohol issues affecting the question of his character.

  57. TruePatriot says

    September 14, 2020 at 6:13 pm

    Just saw an article on Anthony Weiner.

    I bet this is him trying to normalize his sickness, just like that Netflix show is trying to do.
    It’s not going to go well for him. People care about their kids – even after the age of 13.

  58. badgerette85 says

    September 14, 2020 at 6:05 pm

    The candidate that lost the gubernatorial race to DeSantis in Florida. Don’t recall his Name

    September 14, 2020 at 6:03 pm

    Whoa. So, it’s no secret in the NYC social scene that Huma is Hillary’s not-so-secret girlfriend and has been for a long time. Everyone there knows she set Huma up with Carlos Danger to distract from their bond, but to find out Anthony Weiner is also closeted is NOT the twist I was expecting! They’re both bearding for each other thanks to H. Yikes. No, he won’t be elected…he’s now like Harry Markle.

  62. IcePrincess says

    The delusional Andrew Gillum (and his ambitious wife)
    Hope he’s not elected to any office but there are stupid voters especially San Francisco

    We all knew he was desperate to run again and everyone in Tallahassee knew he was gay not bi. Maybe if we had real journalism any more he would’ve been exposed for being a fraud

    Optional: Hard to say. Republicans would forgive this behavior for one of their own, but NEVER for a Dem, so he won’t ever get any of their votes. Dems will be more forgiving of him, I think. And on the tails of a Biden/Harris win (if it happens), this might be the best thing for him to do with regards his own political future (as long as he truly has the addictions issue properly under control). Lawd knows, Di Santis has been horrible for FL, so Gov. Gillum could happen.
