Aoc plays a game about corruption in congress

How does the way you personally feel about them change anything? All politicians have supporters who are so rabid in their support the candidate/politician can do no wrong.

We see it every election cycle across the country and all through in between when scandals break while they are in office.

:rofl:

It’s unfortunate in this case.

I still think there should be 538 of me in Congress.

Yes, but when a republican flubs it’s because he or she is an idiot. When she does it, she’s a ducking genius and just misspoke, or we didn’t understand her nuance.

That’s what I’ve learned from you. You give an absolute, complete pass to everyone on the left, and give absolutely no room to anyone on the right.

She should just make the top bracket 100%. Legislate a national maximum income so all her pipe dreams can be funded.

So much for supporting jobs.

Just like Ted Kennedy opposed windmills because they would ruin his view of the ocean. “I’m all for it as long as it doesn’t affect my luxury!”

People are just mad at AOC because she is running laps around them. They’re lost and confused looking at the Celebrity Apprentice guy for reassurance.

Ah…ever the pivot…

Scares the living crap out of 'em, I’d say, from the name-calling they throw at her. And she doesn’t care. Good for her.

Nope, but another strong woman like her.

Looks like more bad than good. What happened to Donald’s MAGA tax cut benefits?

Interesting tweet from AOC.

Its covered in another thread, but isn’t it amazing that there are still people that believe that the amount of withholding has anything at all to do with the tax law rates and how much they actually saved under that law?
Perhaps less amazing that there is your MSM, trying to mislead them.

Other than making a fool of herself and her constituents she hasn’t accomplished anything.

And of course there’s zero evidence to support her claim.

The only thing scary about her is her ideas and the fact such an idiot could attract enough votes to be elected in the first place.

The nice thing about her getting all this attention is that she’s getting exposed for what she is and will therefore likely end up a one term wonder.

Eventuallly a socialist will run out of other peoples money

She is a little slow to pick up on the name calling. Maybe she needs something like a special ed teacher to help her process it.

Sort of a misnomer. My refund was $135 less this year than last, but that is because my employeer withheld slightly less based on anticipated tax rates. On the surface it looks like i paid slightly less taxes this year than last, by less than a a few hundred dollars. So yeah people could boast trump saved money by that metric.

At the same time multiply my situation out by 10s or hundreds of thousands of people and figure out how much that so called tax added to the national debt and how much it actually caused me in future obligations and it quickly becomes apparent it is a negative sum game
