President Trump is calling BS on Texas Democratic Senate Nominee James Talarico’s story for why he hid from Texas voters for two weeks after ditching Texas and heading to the Empire State to raise money with Mamdani’s people and the gay Human Rights Campaign.
On September 28, Talarico appeared at a fundraiser with TDS-infected actor Robert DeNiro and allies of NYC Mayor Zohran Mandani in New York. He was also raising money from the gay Human Rights Campaign in New York.
Two days later, on September 30, Talarico appeared virtually at a United States Hispanic Business Council forum, where he claimed he had a so-called flu diagnosis while broadcasting from a hotel room– somewhere.
“I was starting to feel kind of under the weather a few days ago, and last night it got so bad that I went to the urgent care here in Dallas,” he said, though he didn’t look like he was sick — surely not enough for urgent care.
“And I was diagnosed with the flu, and so uh I’m running a fever, and I’m my most contagious uh right now.”

Nearly two weeks later, he was still missing — until yesterday.
Trump was trolling Talarico for wearing a mask still during his rally in Clarksville, Tennessee, on Saturday, and he blasted him for disappearing with a fake flu.
“You know this guy, Talafreako, still wears the mask, and he had the longest flu ever recorded. He was away for like almost 14 days. He was missing in action,” Trump said.
“I don’t think it was the flu. Either that or it was a new strain of flu that keeps you out of commission for weeks.”
“But no, Talafreako, he was wearing a mask. Here’s a guy running in Texas against a very good guy, the greatest Attorney General that this country has seen in many, many years, actually. And Talafreako, a couple of months ago, was wearing a mask,” he continued.
“Look, anybody that’s wearing a mask, let’s say three months ago, you don’t want him to be in Texas, and you don’t want him to be in Tennessee.”

Trump previously noted “bad rumors are coming out” as Talarico remained in hiding.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Talarico was finally seen in public on Friday at the ACL music festival in Austin, Texas, after a nearly two-week absence.
“Hate to disappoint the conspiracy theorists, but James is still alive and meeting with voters at ACL today,” a Talarico spokesperson said as if it’s totally normal to disappear for two weeks in the heat of an election.
