    "OCASIO-CORTEZ: If people want to really blow up one figure here or one word there, I would argue that they’re missing the forest for the trees."

    Oh my! So when Trump said Mexico would pay for the wall, are they missing the forest for the trees? Why is OK for Cortez not to me semantically correct, but it's an axe murder when Trump wasn't semantically correct when he said Mexico would pay for the Wall? The wall isn't even built yet?

    "I think that there’s a lot of people more concerned about being precisely, factually, and semantically correct than about being morally right."

    WOW! Being morally right is more important than the truth to her I guess. What a twisted communist way of thinking. I wonder if she can be deported to Venezuela? This is the representative from New York's 14th district, just remember when she says one thing and votes the other way.....she warned ya.

    Hypocrisy is giving Cortez a pass for doing exactly what Trump did.

    Mexico will be paying for the wall.

    President Trump said California will be paying for the wall and since California has been under Mexican occupation for a few decades now, California is Mexico.

    California's state legislature doesn't represent Americans, it represents Mexicans and Mexico.

    I agree with this criticism of her.

    The numbers are on her side. Yes you may "feel" that these things are happening and need rectification, but if you constantly throw out falsehoods, then nobody is going to take you seriously (unless your initials are P.DJT).

    Get the numbers, and use them to make your case. It doesn't take much extra work.

    Yeah, the left saw how much success the GOP had with Trump and decided to go out and get a Hispanic and hotter idiot who spouts off exaggerations and outright lies. Funny one I saw her say yesterday was when she was called out on the math for the economic policies, she claimed they proved her wrong cause shes a woman. Math is sexist. :roflol::roflol:

    MORE AOC Obsession? :bored:

    This article is Old News, it happened over A WEEK AGO, it has been beaten to death at PF, and thus it is NOT a "Current Event".

    I would suggest that the next time that you post this sort of Ancient, Redundant, BS--you should consider posting it in the PO&B section.

    You're welcome.:salute:

    Once again, AOC plays the RW like a fiddle (and, as usual (like moths to the flame) the RW takes the bait hook, line, and sinker).

    Why is the RW so easy to troll?

    "AOC Bad!":roflol:

    Ok, but I didn't say she did. Your "whataboutism" is comical because you think I care about Trump.

    No one can beat Trump on the economy either, it's why he will get the wall and get re-elected in 2020.

    President vs one out of 535 members of congress.

    I guess I can see how you are confused.

    Also an outright lie vs a report that has some actual backing is another difference.

    $21 Trillion Missing – U.S. Government a Criminal Enterprise – Catherine Austin Fitts

    The new report was put together by Dr. Mark Skidmore at Michigan State University, and it is a detailed year-by-year study of DOD and HUD budgets between 1998 and 2015. The missing money is called “undocumentable adjustments,”

    Why, hers is but a tiny district in NY Gerrymandered for Democrat wins. The population of her district is 691,715 of which she got 110,318 votes. While that may have represented 78% of the vote, I doubt the bulk of the voters will sit out the next one.

    It won't matter.

    AOC is in there as long as she wants it.

    Zero chance of the GOP ever taking that seat. Zero.
