Funny how quickly the messaging switched from “blue collar outsider shaking things up” to “experienced politician with a solid track record” when the rest of the country found out he’d been working with Collins in Maine for 2 decades.

The choice is clear: Corrupt Millionaire Susan Collins who can't deliver projects for Maine because her master, Donald Trump, is impounding (stopping) the funds or Troy Jackson; listen to Obama on why he's supporting Jackson:

If Obama ran the DNC I think dems would be more effective in their messaging and strategy. Corruption, at this point, has fully permeated the federal government. A top-down approach is no longer an option. We need to rebuild our government from the ground up.

I would love to see President Obama come to Maine. The way he so eloquently & sanely speaks would be soothing to the ears & mind. I miss him.

A friend went to Obama's inauguration. He was one of the masses who congregated on the Mall. He sent me a postcard from DC and I still have it displayed in my kitchen so Barack Obama smiles at me every time I enter my kitchen. I'm phone banking for Maine Democrats. Who knows? I may call you?

I’m not from Maine, but I hope Obama goes to Maine to help Troy Jackson. We need to beat Susan Collins. Obama’s such a great speaker, voters in Maine deserve to hear from Obama!

Troy is just what we need. The roll up his sleeves,ready to contribute to fix the mess we are in. A straight shooter, not a showboater who makes promises that can't be kept. I'm glad Obama recognizes that in Troy.

Yes, and he actually has some experience: he was in the state legislature. Call me old-fashioned, but I don't think federal Senator is an entry-level job. You should hold an elected position elsewhere first.

Troy is great and has my complete support. He's from northern Maine where I come from and that doesn't get much attention from the rest of the world. But: I am still enraged at the ugly ratfucking that was done to Graham, and mourn his loss as a truly transformative leader.

Yep. I’d challenge anyone to point out just one other candidate who would bust their hump as hard with # of town halls, showing up to support strikers AND not filter questions, answer rabid opponents rationally while thinking on his feet.

Yes. For all the bluster about not trusting corporatist media, they sure swallowed it hook, line and sinker with not a shred of skepticism about the tens of millions 💰💰💰donated to Collins war chest. Hell they’d even carry influencers on their shoulders. They sure ♥️♥️♥️ the status quo

As long as he isn't taking pac or lobby money of any kind, is planning on shutting down data centers, surveillance camera's, and he stops taking down our trees for corporations stripping and destroying our planet. Let's see real change. Not more bought and paid for performance.

This is why I respect Obama: he extols the things that make Jackson the right candidate for Senate, rather than the reasons not to vote for his opponent. I am so tired of attack ads that say nothing about the candidate's positions or policies, only out of context clips about the opponent.

🆘️🇺🇲We need to vote like our lives depends on it because it does. We can have better. Vote early or vote in person if you can. The Blue wave has started. #TroyJackson #ME 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

Former President Barack Obama endorsed Troy Jackson for U.S. Senate in Maine, targeting Susan Collins' seat. Obama praised Jackson's championing of wages, lower drug costs, school meals, abortion rights, and education reforms to support working families.

After spending quality time living and working amongst Mainers back in the late 60's, I can only hope they now get on board with a senator who actually reflects their work ethics, down-east honesty, and the representative governing that serves their real needs. #MaineNeedsTroyJackson

He may be better than t-Rump, but he's the reason we didn't get a chance to vote for Bernie. I campaigned for him and voted for him twice, but I'll never forgive him for that and I'll never trust him again.

I am so confused by the people that hold one person overly accountable for ONE thing so will " correct" by voting for a terrible person that hasn't done Anything but prove to be selfish and untrustworthy..

I’m not holding you accountable. I am fairly certain she’s going to lose. Will you just leave that circle empty on your ballot then?

I'm not running for office. Neither was MLK or the Koch Bros. Compare what I'm delivering to every candidate with 26 days to go. The Epstein Class has succeeded once again hiding the truth in the face of outrageous corruption and fascism. This is a Revolution of Truth. youtu.be/Qry1MqG9cLA?...

Good place for a democratic man after a misogynistic rep female is buggering the people! Take them all!!!! The seats are Pokémon…lol dems go!

Susan Collins is a prime example of what needs to be voted out of office. She has done absolutely nothing for her constituents in the time she has been in congress. She has violated her oath of office & is a disgrace. She is up for re-election in Nov. 2026. MAINE, DO BETTER! VOTE FOR TROY JACKSON!

Dear Mainers, It’s⌛️ to V💙TE Susan Collins OUT‼️ 🔜 V💙TE for TROY JACKSON ✊ 👉 Collins is CORRUPT just like her dicktator-in-chief & she has overstayed for too long, that it’s⌛️to give her the 🥾 & 👋 bi@tch‼️ 🤔 Didn’t she said she’s only going for 2 senate terms? 🤨 with 💙, AJ from SC ✊

Sounds Like Maine Prosecutors Are Investigating Collins For Taking Bribes, And As A Maine Representative In Congress, Falls Under Maine's Jurisdiction For Criminal Offenses.

‼️🚨⏰🔔ALL Americans 👇👇👇👇BE « WARNED » SHARE NEAR, FAR & WIDE Don’t ever trust trump! It is not because nothing much happens. Is because he want to win the midterms. “Don’t be the foolish dumb idiot”. Vote : 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙 👇👇👇MORE INFO

At this point I don't give a shit. Vote every son of a bitch out of office. L/R they all gotta go!!!

Good. God damn it, good. Between this and his soon to be stumping for Abdul, he is finally doing something good with his immense post-office power. I genuinely think the recent interview with Ta-Nehisi shamed him into stepping up at a moment when he could make all the difference.
