He also tweeted:

I want to congratulate @Ocasio2018. I look forward to supporting her and all Democrats this November. The Trump administration is a threat to everything we stand for here in Queens and the Bronx, and if we don't win back the House this November, we will lose the nation we love.

That's how you do it when you're a member of a bigger team with a much bigger goal.

The ultimate goal is keeping the seat and winning back Congress. Crowley knows there's so much at stake in November and he'll do what's right for the country!

It's hard to defeat a woman this time around.

Congratulations to Alexandria Ocasio!

He's a big reason why his district is 80% blue.

I have no doubt he will do whatever he can to help Ocasio Cortez, as well as make sure Democrats continue to win in his district.

... and now I see how he, like Hillary in 2008 after her primary loss, has displayed the most incredible character under some very difficult conditions.

Interesting thing to see the rhetoric vs the reality
