BEYOND PARODY: Maine Democrat Troy Jackson Booted From Facebook Group Supporting His Campaign

Troy Jackson is the Democrat running for U.S. Senate in Maine who was chosen by party insiders after Graham Platner was forced out of the race over credible accusations of sexual assault.

Jackson has his own issues as a candidate, as he has been accused of some bad behavior in social situations.

Now, Jackson has reportedly been kicked out of a Facebook group that was set up to support his candidacy.

You could not make this up.

Maine Wire reports:

Troy Jackson Gets the Boot From ‘Mainers for Troy Jackson’ Facebook Group

An account bearing Troy Jackson’s name got kicked out of a Facebook group devoted to supporting him after members decided its replies were so insulting they couldn’t possibly have come from their candidate.

Screenshots from “Mainers for Troy Jackson” show members arguing over whether they were dealing with the real Jackson, an impostor or someone else using his account. One member posted images identifying the profile as Jackson’s personal page, complete with a Facebook designation that made for an awkward endorsement: “Former member of Mainers for Troy Jackson.”

According to a Maine Wire investigation, the account profile picture matches the personal profile account Jackson has used for several years.

The dispute comes amid complaints about Washington’s growing influence over the Democratic Senate nominee. In a Sept. 22 New York Magazine report, Rebecca Traister described progressive organizers frustrated as Jackson deferred to national consultants. She reported that local organizers had been sidelined and town halls reworked or canceled. Jackson’s campaign denied screening questions at events and said his positions on ICE, Gaza and Medicare for All had not changed.

Inside the Facebook group, supporters were having trouble recognizing the man whose name was on the door.

“This cannot be Troy speaking. He would not speak so insultingly and patronizingly to regular people let alone supporters,” wrote Carla Poindexter White. “Whoever this is, it is horrifying.”

How bad of a candidate do you have to be for something like this to happen?
