Kind of torn to be honest. I find AOC's tit for tat brattiness to be pretty unproductive. And when you get into a fight with a pig, you both get covered in mud and the pig loves it.

But - just being the adult at taking blows hasn't worked for anyone else since these smooth brains chidlish antics because their primary attack tool. Maybe that's why "weird" is getting some traction. It is a backhanded insult that doesn't really demean you the same way as back and forth churlishness does.

Whatever gets under the republicans' skin is fine and dandy.

I mean - the "psychology" behind it is to try and apply a childish playground nickname that damages him. Sleepy Joe, Lyin' Chuck Schumer, Low Energy Jeb Bush. The template isn't complicated. huRr DuRr tampons are gross and icky, and for ladies, let's try and make people think Walz is gross and icky. While the number of MAGAts is never going to be zero, there doesn't seem to be quite as much childish frenzy around his name calling as there once was.
