Well they need to get out and start doing media now. Regardless, a successful candidate is going to have to out in hundreds of hours in front of cameras and developing a level of comfort and ease of answering questions that only comes with practice and putting in the hours. It's also one of my biggest critiques of AOC. She also hasn't/isn't putting in the reps in terms of media cycles. When they do, it's very controlled and brief.
You are a fascist.
Explain how.
Explaim how you complain to management to get your critiics cancelled? You gave your hand away.
What did you get banned for being a gif hating loser in the other thread? I would never report you for being that kind of a loser; it's far more fun to just mock you relentlessly when you have a psychological moment like that. Which was truly fun and brightened my day, so I do want to say thanks and I appreciate your participation. It was probably some one who agreed with me on how silly you were being that reported you. I would never do that, it's far more entertaining to have you staying in the game.
For your participation yesterday, I sincerely appreciate it:
Now, into the comment at hand..
You can be and should be a critic of me but you should also have the charity to take my arguments on their face. I think AOC is mid among current progressives and I've outlined why several times in this thread. I can reiterate those points if you like and we can take it from there.
ha ha, you are pathetic.
And I think you've developed a personality disorder.
The amount of work you have put into trolling me speaks for itself. Fucking pathetic. You should be ashamed of yourself why don't you go back in the mirror and practice making fearsome faces. Haha,
When you enjoy what you do, it's not work.
Well clearly trolling is your calling. Is it pathetic? Yes. Hahaha.
Bruh you responded to me. You could just go about your merry way but you pd won't allow it.
Ha ha, pathetic.
The world is mine! But piss off, you are pathetic. I will get to that.
It's fine, I don't mind supporting or interacting with fans
You said that what but your actions belie your words. And you are fucking pathetic. Ha ha ha, enjoy your off-brand Aussie fucking circle jerk. All 1k of you. Maybe you can wake up? Haha.
I just want you to know how much I appreciate you as a fan and supporter
Pathetic.

ss..senpai.. where did you go?
You are a mean drunk. You can't handle the alcohol.
You are a troll.
