We've seen Democrats defensive over many things in the several decades we've been covering them here at Twitchy. But full disclosure, seeing a Democrat whine because people think he's a vegan ... that's a new one.
Then again, this particular Democrat is trying to run in Texas, and even he knows that turning his nose up at beef is a stupid move.
Ultimately, James Talarico created the vegan rumor all on his own.
Maybe if he thought about that, he wouldn't be so whiny and defensive about it:
Ken Paxton is throwing everything he has at us.

He’s called me a radical leftist. He’s called me a fake Christian. He’s even called me a vegan!

Aww, you know how we know it really hurt Talarico? Because brought up the Paxton indictment without telling the whole story. Unfortunately for Tiny James, Texas are smarter than he gives them credit for and are more than familiar with what happened to Paxton.
But hey, nice try, lil fella.
Um, because he's on tape bragging publicly about running a "meatless" campaign to help fight climate change.

Yes, the whole vegan thing came from James promising he'd run a meat-free campaign. Womp womp.
Being okay with trooning kids and open borders is radically left, you gayer version of Beto.

Oof.
You are literally all of those things, and a charlatan.

You believe that there are more than two biological sexes, and that men can become women.
You’re Temu Beto
Oof again.
You hold ribs with a napkin, son, dismissed
