Take a look at this timeline. It’s all just a barrage of smears against Beto or now Kamala and will be for every single Democrat who supports progressive policy but is actually an evil fraud, corrupt, bought by Wall Street, lying about *all* of their progressive positions.
And he does have a real following. His followers are nasty, racist, sexist trolls.
They respond like frat bros high giving each other for their latest conquest tearing down another woman.
