Some of our more skeptical readers wondered if Jason Kander was quietly planning a political comeback and simply waiting for the right opportunity to start his next campaign.
A lot of voters still regret his Kansas City mayoral race dropout but understand that tense circumstances which led to his decision. Ultimately, most decent people want the very best for the Afghanistan veteran and community-minded public figure.
Now, in a recent holiday treat social media post it seems that the former Missouri Rep., Secstate and Senate hopeful is doing some very serious work toward his well-being and showing everyone that PTSD can be overcome with a lot of perseverance.
To wit . . .
HAVE A PEEK AT JASON KANDER POSTING HIS SHIRTLESS SELFIE POST-WORKOUT PIC TOUTING SELF-CARE PROGRESS!!!
It's unclear if revealing sweaty nips on social media is the path to self-actualization but it can't hurt and totally convinces our blog community that he's serious about his road to recovery ahead of politics given this motivational revelation . . . Checkit:
Christmas 2018 vs Christmas 2019. Focusing on my mental health allowed me to push through physical pain and workout and eat with a purpose. Still have a herniated disk in my back, an injured shoulder and some remaining PTS symptoms to work through, but none of it holds me back like it used to. I never would have expected to post something like this but I want others to know mental health treatment can yield benefits you may not even know about. And on top of that dammit I'm proud of my 2019! Mentally, physically, spiritually, I feel like a new Jason. And this is just the beginning.

For those who can't read it, here's the inspirational message from the dedicated volunteer and leader of the Veterans Community Project national expansion:
"Christmas 2018 vs Christmas 2019. Focusing on my mental health allowed me to push through physical pain and workout and eat with a purpose. Still have a herniated disk in my back, an injured shoulder and some remaining PTS symptoms to work through, but none of it holds me back like it used to. I never would have expected to post something like this but I want others to know mental health treatment can yield benefits you may not even know about. And on top of that dammit I’m proud of my 2019! Mentally, physically, spiritually, I feel like a new Jason. And this is just the beginning."
Sure . . .
The hunky selfie might inspire hateration and kinda makes TKC uncomfortable (yet strangely curious) in reporting and providing journalistic context BUT, fact is, he's in better shape than most Kansas City news watchers and WE WISH HIM THE VERY BEST along his EPIC life journey that has already taken him far beyond the confines of this provincial cowtown.
You decide . . .
F U haters. Dude has seriously helped Kansas City vets and he's a hero and a great example to a lot of people.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jason for all of the work you have done and continue to do. Good for you!
DeleteBS
DeleteOkay, so he's probably not going back into politics any time soon but I wouldnn't totally rule it out.
ReplyDeleteRemember that Obama had a shirtless beach photo. So this doesn't put him out of the running.
Kander could come back and be mayor whenever he wanted to. That's a fact. A non partian race would be the best thing for his career and might help him to take a more critical look at how some Democratic policies take a toll on a city and it's residents. Fact is, Kander has always been a more Conservative Democrat.
But if getting well is what he needs, he's young enough to do that. Good for him.
ReplyDeleteScamder wildly waving the Vet card...battling his "PTSD" from that day the A/C went out in his office...and he got all sweaty...
ReplyDeleteOy Vey!
Ur washed up dude. Just accept it and everything will work out.
ReplyDeleteTony wishes you the very epic best.
ReplyDeleteSo in other words he's become just another brainwashed idiot posting gym pics on Instagram.
ReplyDeletePutin Jr.
ReplyDeleteHe still playing second fiddle to the wife? Maybe she's the problem.
ReplyDeleteWhat are his views on unsolicited bulk email?
ReplyDeleteHe served only to check a box on a future political career. The only hazard he faced by his own admission was paper cuts. Shamefully playing the victim card for future gain. Of course he will run for office again.
ReplyDeleteHe must have posted this for his Gay base
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteoh..barf!! Quick,TKC..we need a Candice pic to make up for showing that doof taking selfies..
This pussy had a chance then blew it. H'es done can't bank on the dude being there if needed.
ReplyDeleteHow in the fuck is this guy a hero!
ReplyDeleteHe was on the front line of a computer keyboard for four months.
See 6:19.
he's auditioning to be Mayo Pete Buttplug's Veep, if he gets the nom.
ReplyDeleteShades of greitens anyone?
ReplyDeleteThere ain’t nothing wrong with his punk ass, he’s playing people for future votes for what I don’t know but this is straight outta the dimwit playbook, play butthurt for sympathy then when the “miracle” happens and he’s mysteriously “cured” he’ll run for office and dimwits are stupid so they’ll vote for him. Because..... dimwits that’s why.
Why is this important?
ReplyDelete^^^ He's starting to make it on Instagram.
ReplyDeleteSomebody needs to tell him that Putin already has the market on shirtless pictures! Hahaha!
ReplyDeleteAnd yet he enlisted and served while you misfits were serving french fries at McDonalds. Besides, he's hot and you're... not. Weird.
ReplyDelete^^^"weird" dude wanting to suck off Pander..
ReplyDelete“weird”dude wants to suck everyone off.
DeleteWhat does JeneƩ Osterheldt think?
ReplyDeleteA perfect candidate for any medical researcher who wants to focus on trying to find a cure for terminal narcissism.
ReplyDeleteOr a fiction author looking for someone with an inventive imagination.
Please get help, Mr. Pander.
^^^When has she ever?
ReplyDelete
ReplyDelete@ 5:21 YOU are full of crap he has done no such thing!!!!!!! and YOU are the hater of this country. Anyone who is a democrat has done nothing but tear this country apart. So screw Kander and his CRAP about fake PTS syndrome. The guy is a WACK JOB!
NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER
ReplyDelete"I never would have expected to post something like this, but..."
...I can't help it, I'm freaking in love with myself! Geez! I want to fuck myself so bad, but I'll have to settle for some gay dudes down at the club.
Did I mention that I'm embracing my homosexuality in 2020?
Yes, Daddy
ReplyDeleteI want to see The beautiful Diana Kander without a shirt on, not pussy-fag Jason.
ReplyDeleteHe sexy!
ReplyDeleteIf Jace wanted to give me a bone, it worked.
ReplyDeleteCome on, Jace. Ditch the bitch and make the switch.
I am available this weekend.
"So screw Kander and his CRAP about fake PTS syndrome. The guy is a WACK JOB!"
ReplyDeleteThat's the funniest thing I've read all day; all the more so because you didn't seem to notice what you actually said.
All day?! It's only been less than ONE FOURTH OF A DAY, bLIEron!!! Oh right, scammer time doesn't coincide with real clock time. Your comment is the goofiest thing I've read ALL day!
DeleteJason is HOT. I would blow him until his head imploded. I hope he’s at least bi-curious.
ReplyDeleteByron, a well known wack job who wouldn't know funny if it bitch slapped him on his ass.
ReplyDelete5:45,
ReplyDeleteBack off, bitch! He is mine.
Go for my man and I'll scratch your eyes out.
11:04: I'm sure he has no interest in you or your rusty trailer.
ReplyDeleteWell, fuck me raw and naked with a dirty dildo.
ReplyDeleteI have found my date for New Year's Eve.
C'mon Jason. Let's make 2020 the start of OUR decade.
It's so phony pretending to look at his phone with his shirt off (holding his stomach in) as if he doesn't know his picture is being taken.
ReplyDeleteHey 5:24, conservative Democrat is an oxymoron.
ReplyDelete^^^^You're a tad history-challenged, but we are becoming a polarized society. Unfortunately "moderate Republican" is also becoming an anachronism.
ReplyDeleteJason Kander's selfies are very Anthony Weiner and Eric Greitenish.
ReplyDeleteWho works out in their blue-jeans? Weird dude and a Democrat to boot.
Now, now. Just because he wouldn't give you a second look is no reason to get all pissy. You just have to lower your expectations. A lot.
ReplyDeleteTo save her political career, Kander's wife better dump him fast as he is definitely trolling for strange and has become a switch hitter. He's going to be her Hillary Clinton's version of Anthony Weiner.
ReplyDeleteTMI when mental health is a concern....IS a concern. Ask any family member of a bi polar. Your first thought is ... here we go again ... and that sick sinking feeling always follows... He should ramp it down not up if he is really interested in self care.
