BSer: If I don't get my way, I'm totally leaving this party.
Democrats: Ok, sure.
BSer: Seriously, if I don't get my way, I'm gonna make a huge stink and you're gonna regret it.
Democrats: Sure, Ok.
BSer: Isn't anyone listening?? I'm saying that I'm going to go throw a giant tantrum and it's somehow going to embarrass you instead of me!
Democrats: Uh-huh.
BSer: I'M NOT KIDDING! If you don't placate me well enough, I'm going to vote for Trump! *flecks of spit flying out of mouth now*
Democrats: Can't miss you til you're gone.

ETA: For the jury, "puling" means to cry weakly.
