I’m Olivia Troye. I'm not connected or wealthy, no famous last name — but I served in the Trump Administration and couldn’t stay silent. So I resigned in 2020 after seeing corruption. To stop Trump we need a Congress that will hold him accountable. That’s why I’m running.

I was born in the 70s. How was I, as a literal child growing up in soybean fields in Ohio, aware of what a piece of garbage he was from the assault of his wife, the constant cheating, the Central Park race baiting and character assassinations, etc., etc., etc.... but these people knew nothing? 😒

I have followed you since you spoke out, but I am sorry. You willingly joined up to an administration that had as its face a man who was so obviously dishonest and disrespectful that the corruption wasn’t the surprising part—it was that the party did nothing about it.

I'm grateful for your epiphany, but I need more wisdom from my candidates. Working for Trump is disqualifying. You should have known better. I wish you well in life, but it's a "No" on politics.

Sorry Olivia. I’m glad you’ve left Trump and I’m happy to have your support for those opposing Trump. However, you worked 4 years under Trump while he was destroying our country. That doesn’t qualify you to be the Democratic Party nominee. Welcome to the team but you don’t get to lead it.

Sorry, I would never vote for you. Trump was every bit as disgusting in 2016 as he is now yet you chose to serve in his administration. That suggests to me that you have extremely poor decision making skills.

I'm a bit nervous about former Republicans now running as Democrats. Are these to be Conservative Democrats? IMO, we need more PROGRESSIVE Democrats. I'm not sure ex-Republicans are even close to progressive.

2020 was the last year of his first term. So, no, they all left in Jan 2021 (not defending this person, I know almost nothing about them and definitely have concerns).

Like Magyar did, you may need to explain why the corruption matters to the rank and file. Corruption sounds bad enough but not enough people understand why it should matter to them.

There were many fine people, who resigned in disgust, with Trump. I am no defender of Pence, but even he found out, you are all in, or die. Look at how, the man, Miles Taylor, has been pursued, just by insisting the election was the safest, in history. And he was Trump’s cyber chief.

That doesn’t make a person suddenly become a Democrat though. What about the party platform makes her a Democrat. I don’t think that’s a mean or gotcha question. I legit wonder what makes her a Democrat though now

I suspect, it’s closer to the ideals, for which she quit, being Republican. There are others, Wallace I believe is Independent, but Michael Steel, though disgusted with Trump, says he is still a Republican. I am not too sure, what metric, the good former seminarian is using, other than his wealth.

she was a typical national security Republican until she realized Trump was the biggest threat to the country and resigned in the middle of 2020. Since then she has moved to the center of American politics.

So, nearly 10 years ago you knew Trump's sexual assault. And then actively helped the rapist Trump for 4 years. And _now_ you've decided it's enough? Yea, I smell a huge heap of opportunistic bullshit. You're no democrat.

You did this. All the war crimes, all the deaths The blood is on your hands as well. You still voted for him a 2nd time and you still run as a republican. You learned nothing. However, you will make a great witness under subpoena. Republicans sold Us out. Fuck the gop & fuck you republicans.

Lmao you waited until the end to resign, how noble. "I couldn't stay silent after I was complicit for 4 years, and now I'm trying to capitalize on that."

Needs to be fixed at the precinct committee level in AZ, not the state party level. It would take some very eloquent people with some serious intestinal fortitude.

But where do you stand on true blue issues, like universal health care, reproductive rights, the climate crisis, etc? Yes, of course, we want people who are anti-corruption, but I’d prefer someone anti-corruption who won’t betray my values on these other issues.

I really appreciate your bravery. I have listened to quite a few interviews and think you are smart, capable and have integrity. But - you should not be running as a Democrat.

2020? You waited until the end of his first regime to say something? You supported him all those years? Nope. See this is called accountability. You don’t get to run and claim that you were against him now when it was obvious you support supported him for years. We won’t forget, we don’t want you.

So you were down with the pussy grabbing, lies, anti-muslim scapegoating, and Putin worship; but in 2020 you decided that corruption was a bridge too far?

Please explain to the voters how you have changed your personal right wing Mike Pence anti abortion stance and other far right policies you helped implement for years as a GOP assistant. Being anti Trump - isn’t a Democrat. It’s just a sad GOP. Are you pro women’s rights and pro choice now?

Tough sell. That was some truly awful judgement in enabling Trump v.1. Did you not see the way he mocked that disabled reporter? Or Access Hollywood? You mention corruption, but it was obvious to all of us, that no one on the planet was more corrupt than Trump. Seems opportunistic honestly.

I asked if you saw her speak there. Evidently you did not. Nor did you see/hear her speak on msnbc. So, I'm serious. Maybe listen to what she has to say. Look it up.

She doesn't that's the thing. She thinks just working in the Trump Admin and then ringing the alarm bells on Ukraine is good enough to qualify her a slot in Dem politics. She's a Republican and she should run as a Republican.

Right? We already have a republican that ran as a democrat. Don't need any more Fettermans out there. We need to vet people a hell of a lot better before we vote for them just because they slap a "D" by their name.

Serving in any Trump administration, even if you left on your own, should be disqualifying for anybody running for government going forward. Find a different job, Olivia, this ain't it.

trump has always been a conman. why would someone pick you over democrats that have been fighting trump since day 1? maybe just go be one of those people that are the house pets of the bulwark. go launder your rep elsewhere
