Durr, in an appearance on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” Thursday, said Sweeney was “a gentleman” in his congratulatory call a day earlier, which followed his public concession.
“He congratulated me and just wished me luck, [told me] to do well for South Jersey,” Durr said.
“I told him, you know, if he ever needs anything, just give me a call, because I’m his representative now,” Durr, who is reported to have spent only $153 on his primary campaign, responded.
Like. A. Boss. Just hilarious.
New Jersey Senator-Elect Ed Durr: “He [Senate President Sweeney] was fine. I just told him if he needed anything to give me a call, since I’m his representative now.”
Absolutely savage. ?

Ed Durr’s best line on @TuckerCarlson tonight got a belly laugh out of the host:
“[Sweeney] was a gentleman. And like I told him: if he ever needed anything, just give me a call, ’cause I’m his representative now.”
Savage stuff.

The Republican party needs more people like Ed Durr to run for office.
