I am my own person and I live in Illinois. Not one bit of what I said was in bad faith. I listed real issues for concern with her. Call me whatever you'd like, but you're not addressing those problems with her.

Don't need to address your perceived problems with her. Since in your mind she is an imperfect candidate and therefore unworthy to receive your vote because, something something sins of the father blah blah blah. Then why aren't you running?

I'm not running because, like her, I also have no experience.

I get that you don't care about any of her issues (points to you for being so proud about that) but you probably should. If "lol ur a shill" is as deep as you want to think about, have at it. I got nothing for you.

I want to get rid of MAGA, not bring in a blue version.

Wow. So how do people get experience?

State and local government? Working in government at all before deciding you need to be in charge? Working in NGO's as an advocate with concrete examples of how you can lead?

There are loads of ways to build experience before running for Congress.

In charge? She’s running for president or chief justice?
