    Your avatar is comical! Displaying the Gadsden flag and being on the left. All Democrats do is tread on you with regulations. Try to buy a large soda in NY or get a straw for your iced tea in LA. The left treads on us all.

    It would be nice, maybe we wouldn't have dingbat deluxe in Congress.

    Give that girl some more TV airtime and she'll be out of office in the next go round in 2020. Her ignorance reflects on the folks that voted her in. I'm sure after watching her on 60 minutes, those that did out of the 110,000 votes she got will vote for anyone else in 2020.

    They would all be duplicate posts.

    They're also drowning in taxes and have crappy health care.

    How do you start a thread claiming that freshman representative had made what you call "symantic errors", yet you defend provable lies from the POTUS ? Asking for a friend

    No kidding.

    Good question.

    And speaking of good questions.

    Why would someone start a thread in "Current Events" based on a link from over a week ago (about the same subject that was already hammered to death in a previous 21-page thread)?

    Is it because the RW is starved for talking points (so they have to rehash anything that they can to distract)?

    Or is it just more of the continuing AOC Obsession (as she trolls the RW like a master)?

    Or is it just blatant disregard for PF's Rules?

    As far as the topic of the OP?

    It was already beaten to death in a 21-page thread started January 4th:

    There are already a multitude of those already. All the way to the top.


    lol I may think she needs to sharpen her numbers, but she is like Trump, in that she is reflective of a growing movement of people who feel certain segments of what was promised by previous leaders as to the 'American Dream', doesn't actually play out like they said it would.

    That movement isn't shrinking.

    oh? Which ones specifically?

    Looks like you missed a comma after 'before'.

    Good catch.

    And that is a crucial comma.

    it appears as if the poster is insulting himself.

    I guess some people never proofread before hitting the reply button.

    Talk about off topic...

    Good job

    I will agree though, the left care about future generations while the right care only about themselves and profit. One group will be looked on in the future with disgust and bewilderment.

    That was not a lie. It was a policy objective that didn't get realised.

    In any event, "Mexico will pay" and "Mexico is paying for the wall" are real whoppers.

    But you give Trump a total pass on all his lies. I don't give any politician a pass on lies.

    True, "Whataboutism" Kamala Harris comes to mind.

    The "Growing Movement" of people looking for free stuff are called illegal immigrants and it's what Trump is trying to stop. Seriously Cubed, she got 110,000 votes from 700,000 constituents. The only movement that reflects is a Bowel Movement.

    At least she admits she made a mistake. Trump doesn't.

    As if conservatives are any different when proposing their own big government programs.

    The reason conservatives are so taken with the ignorant, powerless Ocasio-Cortez is that they are worried that it's her morals, and not theirs, that will win out as the main function of a leviathan government.
