9. You have to admit that your boy is getting glowing press coverage at the expense of O'Rourke.

When O'Rourke apologized, he was chastised for it. When Buttigieg apologized for saying "All Lives Matter", he was lauded.

And I do not see how the praise for Buttigieg is at the expense of Beto. How is that working? Can Beto not make his own good news?

They pick one completely irrelevant or insignificant detail, twist it entirely out of context and then report as if it's accurate. I watch every single one of his live streams, appearances and interviews. So do the majority of his supporters. We know the reporting is NOT even remotely accurate in many cases.

I'm sure if the national media were lying about your chosen candidate you would think it was just fine....

As I've posted before, there will always be political opinion pieces about every candidate, both negative and positive.

Maybe you could start an Factchecking OP with the "lies" (not opinions) that the national media is reporting about him, along with the truths (not opinions). I think it would be helpful.

Anyone who has ever listened to Beto speak knows full well he NEVER gives answers that short.
