A record of public statements
In His Own Words
Statements from Constantino’s public posts and campaign, with links to the original material or contemporaneous reporting.
In a Facebook video, Constantino called transgender people the “transgender scam.” In the caption, he wrote that he advised people to stay away from “transgender bullshit.”
Constantino reduced transgender people to a political target and presented personal prejudice as public policy.
“We need to be aggressive [in] detransitioning America… Maybe it should just be LGB without the T.”
This is not a stray remark. He has made restricting transgender rights a stated part of his political agenda.
An FEC complaint alleged that campaign advertising promoted Sticker Mule products while displaying the disclaimer “Paid for by Constantino for Congress.”
An FEC complaint alleged that campaign-funded advertising promoted his private company. Constantino said Google had mislabeled the ads.
Constantino called several Upstate Republicans “RINOs” and threatened to support primary challengers against them.
He has used his platform to attack members of his own party and threaten primary challenges against Republicans he considers insufficiently loyal.
In a July 2024 customer email, Constantino declared his support for Trump and paired the message with a $4 shirt promotion.
He used a commercial customer list to distribute a political message, then folded that message directly into a product sale.
During a dispute with Steve McLaughlin, Constantino offered him a ‘park ranger’ job at his proposed Trump park and shared an edited image of him in uniform.
The exchange is an example of the personal attacks and online theatrics that have defined parts of his campaign.
