Patrick Mosolf for Congress

@ShaconageFarm @townhallcom @KatiePavlich By the way, the place where the guy was taking videos was actually private property. So, by law, he could’ve been asked to leave

@patrickmosolf @townhallcom @KatiePavlich Correct on both counts. First Amendment covers both. The middle finger is just rude and lacks elegance. Perhaps, people don’t want gerrymandering and actually wanted to hear your thoughts. As a Conservative Republican I wish you a good fair race in your district.

.@patrickmosolf, Democrat candidate for VA-02, refuses to answer questions about Virginia’s 10-1 map. “How is a 10-1 map fair?" Mosolf: “I wasn’t expecting someone to come along and stick a camera up at me. I’m not interested in having that conversation right now. “So you're not going to answer?” Mosolf: “I normally talk to people when they’re not holding a camera at me.” PATHETIC.

@ShaconageFarm @townhallcom @KatiePavlich All right, well I’m glad we could discuss this is a civil way

@HNFX_ @townhallcom @NoVA_Campaigns @SenLouiseLucas I’m opposed to partisan districting in general, but I also believe we need checks and balances on Trump’s administration. When Trump initiated gerrymandering in Texas, Missouri, Ohio, NC and now FL, I believe this is a proportional response. Hope that helps

@patrickmosolf @townhallcom @NoVA_Campaigns @SenLouiseLucas Do you have anything to say about redistricting or is your campaign about evading the topic? You are either for this referendum or against it.

@BradenKeithFan @townhallcom The guy with the phone seemed like kind of a nice guy when I met him, but the camera was in between us. I’m campaigning partly on a return to civility in our political discourse, and reconciliation in society. I don’t see this kind of interaction as leading to

@patrickmosolf @townhallcom Answer the question, f@990t.

@KirstenSnajczuk @townhallcom Up to you!

@patrickmosolf @townhallcom So you choose to make a cowardly retreat. Typical politician.

@ShaconageFarm @townhallcom @KatiePavlich The law states that he may record in a public place. The law probably also allows someone to give another the middle finger. The law does not mandate that I respond to him

Respectfully, as you stated, it’s a public square. Anyone can publicly record anything in a public place. No expectation of privacy. X is now THE It place to post public figures. Anyone has become, “news people”. And by demeaning, do you mean quietly and calmly a well thought out answer?

They train these fucking traitors somewhere. They all give these same evasive answers. These are not spontaneous responses, which would be random. From Senate candidates to protest organizers, they all say EXACTLY the same shit. This is trained, which means conspiracy. Where is it? Norm Eisen's castle in Czechoslovakia?

@townhallcom @patrickmosolf Yeah… so you can lie off the record! Grow some balls… if you believe in your stance, defend it in the light of day, on camera for the world to see! You won’t do it because you know this is one BIG LIE!

@vigilantisempe @townhallcom Thanks for your civil tone, by the way

@patrickmosolf @townhallcom I can understand but at the same time it is a basic question that does not need a lot of nuance. Are you for or against the redistricting changes?

@vigilantisempe @townhallcom I’m opposed to partisan districting in general, but I also believe we need checks and balances on Trump’s administration. When Trump initiated gerrymandering in Texas, Missouri, Ohio, NC and now FL, I believe this is a proportional response. Hope that helps

@Yosemite87S @townhallcom @CDHMartinez en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_the_P…

@patrickmosolf @townhallcom @CDHMartinez You're a loser aligned with a party that, at this point, is aligned with the demise of the American way. If you support this gerrymandering effort, then you do not support democracy. One party rule is communist. Period.

@dlrising @townhallcom The House of Representatives is a national institution. So we need to look at it in the big picture, national context.

@patrickmosolf @townhallcom How about the fairness of the current gerrymandering in VA, is there any? Citing other states is an endless non answer btw.

@butterfly101luv @townhallcom @NoVA_Campaigns I believe a normal journalist would approach me, introduce themselves and state that they’d like to ask some things. This young man did none of that. I asked who he was and he didn’t answer.

@patrickmosolf @townhallcom @NoVA_Campaigns That’s a weak excuse, however, if you truly feel as you say, you would be campaigning against a 10-1 gerrymandering, not for a district that doesn’t even exist yet. Virginians voted against politicians drawing Virginia’s districts so this exact thing wouldn’t happen.

@pooterday67 @townhallcom @KatiePavlich Appreciate your perspective. I’m not familiar with everything you mentioned, but it’s important to distinguish between individual actions and a huge group of people (“the party” in your comment)

@patrickmosolf @townhallcom @KatiePavlich I think that’s a great platform to go with, however, when your party celebrated the drownings of young girls in Texas last year, posts on TT about the unaliving of politicians, attempts to ass**inate, and ravages the lives of the unborn, I find the cry for civility disingenuous.

@RNGSPCHS @townhallcom I’m not going to demean the public square by engaging in this way.

@RNGSPCHS @townhallcom I meet thousands of constituents and talk with them. This is the first time someone was waiting with a camera, would not introduce themselves or state what this is for. A normal journalist would approach me, introduce themselves and state that they’d like to ask some things.

@patrickmosolf @townhallcom @NoVA_Campaigns @SenLouiseLucas As much as I appreciate a copy/paste reply, this is just evasive. You are running for office for US Congressional office. Probably in the referendum conception of VA-2, at that. Being asked on camera about the referendum is completely fair, so spare us the platitudes.

@IggyJReils_ @townhallcom We can agree to disagree

@patrickmosolf @townhallcom A return to civility? You’re running for a party that believes in mutilating confused teenagers, letting violent criminals serve minimal (if any) sentences, and no borders at all. Grow up, communist.
