Anthony Constantino: The Right Candidate for NY-21 in the Age of Political Turmoil
By Hans Wilder, Watertown NY
It’s official: the special election for New York’s 21st Congressional District is gearing up to be a real political mess—not just the usual parade of pundits and media spin. This election has the potential to be a chaotic showdown where the GOP can either stick with the same old establishment politics or truly advocate for change.
Let’s dive into the candidates in the spotlight: Anthony Constantino, a name synonymous with the MAGA movement, and Liz Joy, who seems to be just another “conservative” in a crowded field. But if you ask me, the GOP’s choice here should be clear—it’s time for Constantino to take the wheel.
The Spectacle: Democrats and Their Financial Power If you believe the Democrats are going to let a Republican secure this seat without a fierce battle, you’re living in a dreamland. They’re ready with their wallets open, prepared to pour money into the race, and I’m sure the media will happily frame this as another Trump-era conflict where every Republican is painted as an extremist, every conservative as a racist, and every challenge to their narrative as a threat to democracy. It’s a circus, and the Democrats are the ringmasters.
So, what does the GOP need right now? Someone playing it safe, or a bold figure ready to confront the left’s alliance with RINOs and their media allies? If you’re looking for bold, Anthony Constantino is your man.
Liz Joy: A Safe but Uninspiring Choice Don’t get me wrong, Liz Joy has the conservative label. She talks the talk. But when it comes to pushing the Trump “Golden Age” agenda and challenging the establishment, she’s as bland as they come. She’ll play by the rules, shake hands, and discuss fiscal responsibility—but that’s not what this critical moment demands.
The Republicans in NY have been getting trounced on every front by the left. They’ve been losing ground on immigration, fiscal policy, and basic common sense. Hell, more than just half of Watertown NY voted for Kamala for President. The GOP can’t afford to be the party of safe, middle-of-the-road rhetoric anymore. They need a warrior who isn’t afraid to confront the madness head-on. That’s precisely what Constantino brings to the table.
A New Breed of Candidate for a New Era I know this is a special election, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. Democrats will throw everything at this race, so you need more than a candidate who’s conservative on paper—you need someone who’s ready to fight, to push back, and to deliver on conservative promises. Anthony Constantino is that candidate.
What does Constantino offer that Joy doesn’t? He brings a passion that won’t be extinguished by political correctness or media scrutiny. He’s not here to appease the establishment; he’s here to shake it up. Constantino won’t yield to the Big Money Democrats or back down when the media tries to dismantle him. He’s been fighting for real change long before the GOP establishment even grasped what “America First” truly means.
The Decision Lies Ahead Ultimately, the Republicans must decide: do they want to play it safe, hoping to win with a candidate who won’t rock the boat too much? Or do they back someone like Constantino, who can ignite a new dynamism and commitment within the party?
The real question isn’t whether Constantino can win—it’s whether the GOP has the courage to support him. If they’re serious about reclaiming America’s greatness, if they’re serious about upholding the promises of the Trump era, they need to invest in Anthony Constantino and let him lead the charge.
Because, let’s be honest, folks: the Republican Party won’t succeed by becoming more like the Democrats. It will succeed by being unapologetically bold, unapologetically conservative, and unapologetically Anthony Constantino.
