Welcome to what is the 942nd original profile here at “Crazy/Stupid Republican of the Day”, where we’ll be discussing Kristen Alamo Rowin, who was a 2020 candidate for U.S. House of Representatives for Texas’ 17th Congressional District known locally for her career in real estate. She hoped that maybe she could pull a long shot victory and end up succeeding the retiring Congressman Bill Flores, but it was pretty hard for folks to pick her out of a big primary field when she was yet another Republican kook who supported the Qanon conspiracy theory. She often had flattering comments for disgraced former General Michael Flynn, referenced “The Storm” and would tweet out the Qanon slogan and hashtags.
The rest of her policy stances were also a hot bed of crazy, including -her unflinching support for the 2nd Amendment, that she believed in Donald Trump’s stupid f***ing idea for a border wall (her father was a Peruvian immigrant, because extra hypocrisy on fear of immigrants), that she quoted of a NASA website to support her belief that climate-change rhetoric is so much “hysteria”, and that she was completely opposed to same-sex marriage. She was opposed to Hillary Clinton, of course, but claimed that she would bring about “socialism” if she had been elected in 2016.
Kristin Rowin finished eighth out of a possible twelve candidates in the GOP Primary for Texas’ 17th District, getting all of 1.7% of the vote. We’re hoping she doesn’t get involved in politics at any level, because obviously. She looks to be an Alamo that Texans forget.
