Saying something outrageous on social media is what 'influencers' do to keep followers.

That's why the Kardashians & Biebers are always on Yahoo front page newz. If they don't throw out some outrageous meat for people to click on, they risk being replaced by a more outrageous 'influencer'.
Like Tara Reade! Its all about the clicks, not the truth to the story.

Of course he'll be proven a liar for such a dumb statement, but by gosh, he'll get the clicks that keep him in the newz!! $$$$$

Isn't he also the guy who got busted for wearing a tee shirt with the picture of a Nazi collaborator?

The best decision AOC ever made for her career. I think he was a big reason she was so unbearable early on.
