really cannot tolerate Rubio being “cool.”
It really goes against everything in the mainstream media think that they are. Suddenly, they are the annoying, nerdy little dude who constantly irritates others and finally gets a wedgie.
And they just can’t deal.
And I don’t know that Rubio is necessarily “cool.” He can actually be kind of dorky. But I’m not even sure that matters. What does matter is that, while yes, he is a politician and proves that sometimes, he’s also human and relatable in a way that those guys I mentioned above will never be. Now that he’s arguably one of the most important men in the world, the MSM is catching on, and they don’t like it one bit.
… My point is that none of this is forced. It’s not for political gain. He is just being who he is. And that’s something very few Democrats are able to do these days.
You can tell it’s a threat to the left because the MSM is starting to speak negatively about it. They see this cool dude whose star is rising at a rapid pace because of relatable things he says and does, who is a strong potential 2028 contender, and who is having fun while doing it.
