You know, if nothing else this guy is a case study in how political scandals just don't really matter in a post-Trump era. This dude is just eating nonstop smears (largely justified, some ridiculous) and is still gonna win by like 20 points.

he talks good, they just didn't bother to find someone who can talk the same talk and didn't murder children for fun

i don't think they're literally one in a million. and with his background if he is genuinely reformed he should've devoted himself to finding somebody to support rather than chasing power

I'm curious if he stopped chasing ass to chase power or if he's flexing two hobbies

He says he’ll make the rent go down and he talks like a normal, personable guy. Thats literally all it takes
