Hey #PA10, have you seen this interview @RepScottPerry did with @ydrcom yesterday? It seems to have slipped under the radar.

It starts off fairly measured but kind of goes off the rails towards the end... 1/ https://www.ydr.com/videos/news/2020/10/29/q-rep-scott-perry-eugene-depasquale-election-10th-congressional-district/6069572002/

It starts off with the pandemic. He's asked what he would do when faced with a new wave. He goes off on a rant about the governor, and nursing homes. 2/

At a little over 10 minutes in he's asked about systemic racism, and he pivots to defending the police. He trots out his false claim again that Eugene has called for defunding the police and criticizes him again for marching for racial justice. 3/

Then there's some questions about health care. He was asked what is his plan if he is in support of overturning the ACA, and he goes on the defensive about pre-existing conditions. Oh, & seems to blame "secretive" Republican leadership for giving them a bill w/out them 4/

That's a theme, by the way. He is asked about DACA and he seems to blame the fact that there is no solution for DACA on *Paul Ryan.*5/

So, anyhoo, minute 33 is when it really starts to go downhill. He is asked about election security with respect to mail in voting. He trots out a conspiracy theory about people who requested mail in ballots waiting until election day to put them in the mail and 6/

running over to their nearest polling location and voting in person. "How would anyone know they voted twice?" he cries--as if this double-voting is going to happen all over the district and there's NO WAY OF KNOWING if people voted twice!!! 7/

I mean he literally posted this promotion of mail in voting on his own campaign Facebook page THIS MORNING! So, what, it's only Democrats who vote twice? Or *wink, wink* is he telling his supporters to vote twice for him? 8/

There's a longer discussion of election integrity, and it is really worth listening to. But the absolute best part of it is the last two minutes. That's where he melts down.9/

Just as he's wrapping things up and giving his closing statement about how he doesn't work for Washington, he works for us (which is, I believe, a line he stole from his opponent), and trying to make himself seem all moderate and reasonable, he's blindsided. 10/

The reporter is like "Yeah, about that. If you work for the folks in the district, what do you say to your opponent who claims that you are *too extreme* for #PA10?" (I'm paraphrasing) 11/

And right there is where @RepScottPerry loses it, and trots out literally ever single attack ad he's tried to throw at @DePasqualePA for the whole campaign (except the Italian spelling) one after the other in two minutes without taking a breath and it's really quite something.12/

And he finishes his rant, and the @ydrcom is all "That's all we have time for. Make sure to vote, everybody!" And it's over.

No wonder he's not promoting it anywhere.
