Middle aged guy who lived off his parents most of his adult life and was the mayor of a town that was poor and terrible when he took over and it was still that when he left? Care to fill me in?

I mean Braddock has lost 45% of its population since he became mayor, their income has stagnated, but he sure is cool right!

He sounds like a decent community leader who has no business in the Senate. He couldn’t do much to fix Braddock in 15 years, why would his track record suggest he’d be a good Senator? Not to mention his health issues. I’m not a democrat but even looking past where I differ from him on views, his history doesn’t shout that he’d be a good fit in the highest institution of the legislative branch.

I do think he tried to help Braddock with superior motors. Problem being Kevin Sousa is a scumbag.

Like I said he is actually a pretty decent community leader but we kinda need people like that to continue their work in that area over a long period of time. Shouldn’t go to the senate, but can make big everyday changes in his local community. As we all can.

Multiple national TV appearances as mayor of a tiny borough is really impressive. Keep doing that.

Yeah or when he chased a random black dude down with a shotgun. That’s my favorite one.
