Well someone told Eric Swalwell that the key to winning the presidential nomination was acting like a bitchy seventeen year old on Twitter.
And he is certainly living up to that – instead of answering a pretty good question about his gun control plan, but instead of answering it, he sent some stupid memes.
A beginner’s guide to owning #2A trolls. Their BS noise doesn’t intimidate me anymore. They would rather flat LIE, e.g., “going house to house” than save your kids. Start checking them. @MomsDemand got your back. pic.twitter.com/gGajldnsV3

AND the moron was stupid enough to think that he won the exchange, so he posted a screenshot!!
Man that’s pathetic.
You’re literally running for President and instead of engaging thoughtfully on policy, you’re acting like a teenager with an anonymous 4Chan account.
No wonder you have 0% support.

Can you post a beginners guide on how to get more than 0% support in the polls?

Dang. That’s cold-hearted. But true.
I understand that everyone thinks they can be Trump or AOC and just toss some memes on twitter and own their critics, but no you kinda need to understand how the platform works in and out. And this ain’t it, chief.
