AOC gets head ripped off in Primary Debate.....wow....

Michelle Caruso-Cabrera will destroy her in all of her debates. AOC's days are numbered. :)
Not if the other person is perceived as attacking AOC’s family. That shit don’t fly.

How is speaking the truth attacking OAC's family attacking them?
You dims are all alike...you only hate the truth when your ox is being gored.
Who the fuk cares if her mother moved to Florida?
Her mother is part of the working class that was forced to move because of high taxes that AOC wants to raise. The candidate that was debating AOC was standing up for ppl like AOC’s mom.

Is she going to protect against Florida’s warmer winters?

AOC has nothing to do with NY taxes

her mom specifically stated she left the state because of high taxes.

And AOC wants to raise everyone’s income taxes to the federal government . If the state taxes are so high then why is she working to increase the tax burden on the bottom lines of her constituents?

AOC wants things like universal healthcare, a safe environment, low cost education, higher wages.

Not just for New Yorkers but for all Americans

And just how do you think that can be provided? That's right, higher taxes. Much higher taxes.
We can start by repealing Trumps trillion dollar gift to billionaires
Working Americans have been ignored for a generation and have seen wages and benefits sacrificed in the search for tax cuts for the wealthiest among us

What trillion dollar gift?

Let's say you and I were neighbors, and once a week when you went to church, I snuck into your home and took 50 dollars. So if after a while I started feeling guilty about it, and stopped taking that 50 dollars a week, does that mean I gave you a 50 dollar a week gift?

If we are going to start anywhere when it comes to money, let's stop funding Planned Parenthood, NPR, PBS for starts.
Let’s say you and I are neighbors.
Our fathers used to get a wage where they used to support a family on one salary. They could afford healthcare, to send their kids to school without going into debt, retire with a nice pension.

In the 1980s, we switched to supply side/trickle down with a promise of prosperity for all. It didn’t work. Instead of a rising tide lifting all boats, it only lifted the yachts

God forbid if we were neighbors.

Many of our fathers worked long hours and went without in order to save and to provide. There was no such thing as internet, cell phones, Starbucks, no one drove a BMW and if you even had a television there wasn't cable.

My father had a HS Diploma and got a union job at 18. On that salary he was able to raise four kids on a single salary, had good health benefits, a pension and retired at 60 with no debt. He sent four kids to college without going into hock.

Today’s kids have no shot at that American Dream. AOC wants to bring some of that back.
What? Your Dad from the greatest generation worked and paid to put food on the table, sent kids to school,
paid for healthcare for the family and retired with a pension. That is great and glad to hear it.
AOC wants to give it all for 'free', You are something else, RW
He sure did
And he received a fair wage with benefits
Something AOC supports

Republicans want to limit your ability to earn wealth. Restricting wages, labor rights, cutting benefits while the cost of healthcare and education keeps rising
You're avoiding what I'm stating, AOC wants it 'free'. Stop with your dodging, RW
No she doesn’t want it free
She wants workers to get a fair wage like they used to. A wage they could support a family on.
She doesn’t want Americans to go bankrupt if they get seriously sick or injured, she wants Americans to send their kids to college without massive debt, she wants to protect the environment.

Anyone who doesn’t want those things has seriously corrupt values
Oh BS, she wants 'free' education, 'free' healthcare, guarantee a federal job.
You are at least a socialist, RW, and probably a communist.
I doubt that was your Fathers vision when he was a union worker.

She is an economics major. She understands what free means. She also understands the existing distribution of wealth and where the money is.
She advocates government taking a larger role in healthcare, education and the environment.
Not a very good try with the playing of words. She is what she is, no matter how much lipstick you put on that pig.
She is what she is

A politician who supports universal healthcare, low cost higher education and protecting the environment.

Positions that have made her the enemy of conservatives
 
AOC will win by a landslide
I'm not sure it will be a landslide, she chased Amazon off along with the 25.000 jobs.
AOC does not have any legislative power over the NY Metropolitan area
Tell that to Amazon, not me.
You tell me what power AOC has over Amazon
They can build their HQ anywhere they want. They can afford it
Words have consequences.

While the media was consumed with Bezos's launch of “PeckerGate,” it seems Amazon was busy deliberating on the decision to pull HQ2 out of New York City. The company stated the lack of community support as a key reason for the unexpected decision.

For Amazon, the commitment to build a new headquarters requires positive, collaborative relationships with state and local elected officials who will be supportive over the long-term. While polls show that 70% of New Yorkers support our plans and investment, a number of state and local politicians have made it clear that they oppose our presence and will not work with us to build the type of relationships that are required to go forward with the project we and many others envisioned in Long Island City.

Somehow, I know you will try and spin the actual facts, you do that all the time thinking you can fool people.
You are predictable and very transparent.
AOC has no authority to influence Amazons decisions. She, like any other resident, has a right to an opinion.

That opinion, which was supported by many in the area, opposed using taxpayer dollars to subsidize our richest corporation.

That's what happens when you have a 3 inch hole in your boat.

Very true

Republicans policies have put a 3 inch hole in the boats of all workers. Where once they could depend on their boat for support, they now must spend their time bailing it out trying to stay afloat

In the 1980s, we switched to supply side/trickle down with a promise of prosperity for all. It didn’t work.

False. All people, at all income levels did better under the 1980s and 1990s, when this economic plan was in place.

And honestly it is ridiculous to think otherwise.

If you have a job... that's trickle down economics in action.
If you own anything of value... that's trickle down economics in action.

Look around your house. Name one thing you own, that has value, that wasn't made by a rich person?
Look around the entire country. Name one job, either high paying, low paying, or middle class income, that is provided by an impoverished beggar? No such jobs exist.

Jobs are provided by the wealthy. Wealth itself, is provided by the wealthy.

Trickle down is how the world works.

By the way, Trickle down is how even socialist countries work. Even in Venezuela today, the only jobs that still exist, are still provided by the wealthy. What little wealth they have, is still provided by the wealthy.

Trickle down, is how the entire planet works. It worked in the 80s. Worked in the 90s. Working that way today.
I don’t own a single thing in my house that was made by a rich person. The profit went to a rich person
Yeah, there's that pesky thing called capitalism. The opportunity for one to amass wealth.
Socialism and communism doesn't afford the opportunity. That's you, apparently
What we have is unrestrained capitalism with our government siding with the capitalists


Since when is there "unrestrained" capitalism in America? Huge number of regulations out there in every area of business including labor relations.
Capitalism that has received historic tax cuts, has had relaxed enforcement of labor and environmental regulations. capitalism that has benefitted from Republican destruction of labor unions.

Capitalism that only minimally contributes to the education of its workforce. Capitalism that has not had to increase minimum wages in over a decade.

Tax cuts, is allowing you the public to keep more of your own money.

Is allowing you to keep your pay check, an evil of "unrestrained capitalism"? Because that is what you are suggesting.

Capitalism that only minimally contributes to the education of its workforce

Hm.... considering every single college or university that is selling education for profit, is engaging in capitalism..... you are wrong.

capitalism that has benefitted from Republican destruction of labor unions

Chrysler and GM, Hostess, and numerous others all went bankrupt due to Unions.

Unions destroyed themselves. Republicans didn't destroy Unions.... Unions destroyed Unions.

When you make it unprofitable to conduct business... you end up destroying jobs. That's the Unions fault. Stop blaming others for what Unions did to themselves.

And by the way, we know this because union membership has fallen EVERYWHERE. It's fallen throughout Europe, and Asia, and everywhere. Unless you think Republicans are wasting their time invading nearly everything country on Earth, you can stop blaming others for what Unions have done to themselves.

Capitalism that has not had to increase minimum wages in over a decade.

Well of course not. The value of labor has not magically increased, just because time went by. A cheap McDonald's burger, is not worth $20, because you think the minimum wage should be higher.

Yep, those won't raise prices/taxes at all....dumbass.
It will raise the standard of living for working Americans

Well I'm sure it would. At the expense of those of us who have worked harder.
 

This little girl is in over her head and it is now beginning to show. She was never much more than a pretty face with a shortage of brains behind it but now even her political brethren have had enough of her duplicitous opportunism and uninformed banter. She may get re-elected this time but her primary oppoenents are making it clear that she does not just OWN the seat and is going to have to step up to the plate and actually start swinging the bat.

I'm not sure who is more dangerous to the democrats....their republican opponents or their own Political brethren.....I have yet to see anything as down and dirty as the way Bernie got treated both this year and four years ago.....the GOP has no counterpart for that kind of deep rooted and bloodthirsty treachery.....maybe that will be their downfall in the end.

JO
CNN will hire her as an expert in all things.

McDonalds has seen massive increases in corporate profits. They have managed to increase the price of their burger from $2 to $5 since the last minimum wage increase.

Well yes... every single time you increase the minimum wage, the price of the product has to increase with it.

This is why in Denmark, the cost of a value meal is $20, and employees are paid nearly $16/hour.

Of course this means that fewer people can afford to go out to eat. And fewer do. The number of McDonald's in Denmark per-capita, is a fraction of what it is here, logically because far fewer people go out to eat.

Now, in Denmark that is not a big deal, because there are way fewer no-skilled workers in Denmark. Which by the way, is exactly why wages are higher. It's not because they have a high minimum wage. In fact, Denmark has no minimum wage. The market drives up wages.

We have tons of unskilled people in this country. Largely due to our massive immigration, and illegal immigration.

But the point is, if we jacked up the minimum, the result will be higher prices, just like Denmark, which will results in fewer customers, just like Denmark, and fewer jobs.

Problem is, we need no-skill jobs. You will just be dooming people to poverty and unemployment.

In the 1980s, we switched to supply side/trickle down with a promise of prosperity for all. It didn’t work.

False. All people, at all income levels did better under the 1980s and 1990s, when this economic plan was in place.

And honestly it is ridiculous to think otherwise.

If you have a job... that's trickle down economics in action.
If you own anything of value... that's trickle down economics in action.

Look around your house. Name one thing you own, that has value, that wasn't made by a rich person?
Look around the entire country. Name one job, either high paying, low paying, or middle class income, that is provided by an impoverished beggar? No such jobs exist.

Jobs are provided by the wealthy. Wealth itself, is provided by the wealthy.

Trickle down is how the world works.

By the way, Trickle down is how even socialist countries work. Even in Venezuela today, the only jobs that still exist, are still provided by the wealthy. What little wealth they have, is still provided by the wealthy.

Trickle down, is how the entire planet works. It worked in the 80s. Worked in the 90s. Working that way today.
I don’t own a single thing in my house that was made by a rich person. The profit went to a rich person
Yeah, there's that pesky thing called capitalism. The opportunity for one to amass wealth.
Socialism and communism doesn't afford the opportunity. That's you, apparently
What we have is unrestrained capitalism with our government siding with the capitalists


Since when is there "unrestrained" capitalism in America? Huge number of regulations out there in every area of business including labor relations.
Capitalism that has received historic tax cuts, has had relaxed enforcement of labor and environmental regulations. capitalism that has benefitted from Republican destruction of labor unions.

Capitalism that only minimally contributes to the education of its workforce. Capitalism that has not had to increase minimum wages in over a decade.

Tax cuts, is allowing you the public to keep more of your own money.

Is allowing you to keep your pay check, an evil of "unrestrained capitalism"? Because that is what you are suggesting.

Capitalism that only minimally contributes to the education of its workforce

Hm.... considering every single college or university that is selling education for profit, is engaging in capitalism..... you are wrong.

capitalism that has benefitted from Republican destruction of labor unions

Chrysler and GM, Hostess, and numerous others all went bankrupt due to Unions.

Unions destroyed themselves. Republicans didn't destroy Unions.... Unions destroyed Unions.

When you make it unprofitable to conduct business... you end up destroying jobs. That's the Unions fault. Stop blaming others for what Unions did to themselves.

And by the way, we know this because union membership has fallen EVERYWHERE. It's fallen throughout Europe, and Asia, and everywhere. Unless you think Republicans are wasting their time invading nearly everything country on Earth, you can stop blaming others for what Unions have done to themselves.

Capitalism that has not had to increase minimum wages in over a decade.

Well of course not. The value of labor has not magically increased, just because time went by. A cheap McDonald's burger, is not worth $20, because you think the minimum wage should be higher.

McDonalds has seen massive increases in corporate profits. They have managed to increase the price of their burger from $2 to $5 since the last minimum wage increase.


McDonald's has raised their wages dramatically over the past dozen years, even in areas without an increase in the legal minimum wage, like Pennsylvania. That really shows me that the minimum wage is a dead letter, employers are definitely NOT bound to keeping their wages the same, even in the legal min doesn't change.
 
Michelle Caruso-Cabrera will destroy her in all of her debates. AOC's days are numbered. :)
Not if the other person is perceived as attacking AOC’s family. That shit don’t fly.

How is speaking the truth attacking OAC's family attacking them?
You dims are all alike...you only hate the truth when your ox is being gored.
Who the fuk cares if her mother moved to Florida?
Her mother is part of the working class that was forced to move because of high taxes that AOC wants to raise. The candidate that was debating AOC was standing up for ppl like AOC’s mom.

Is she going to protect against Florida’s warmer winters?

AOC has nothing to do with NY taxes

her mom specifically stated she left the state because of high taxes.

And AOC wants to raise everyone’s income taxes to the federal government . If the state taxes are so high then why is she working to increase the tax burden on the bottom lines of her constituents?

AOC wants things like universal healthcare, a safe environment, low cost education, higher wages.

Not just for New Yorkers but for all Americans

Yep, those won't raise prices/taxes at all....dumbass.
It will raise the standard of living for working Americans

They can just pluck those dollars off of the money tree.
We can change from a society that values doing things for the wealthy to doing things for those who create wealth

So how does the guy living under the overpass create wealth?
I mean other than liquor store owners .
 

This little girl is in over her head and it is now beginning to show. She was never much more than a pretty face with a shortage of brains behind it but now even her political brethren have had enough of her duplicitous opportunism and uninformed banter. She may get re-elected this time but her primary oppoenents are making it clear that she does not just OWN the seat and is going to have to step up to the plate and actually start swinging the bat.

I'm not sure who is more dangerous to the democrats....their republican opponents or their own Political brethren.....I have yet to see anything as down and dirty as the way Bernie got treated both this year and four years ago.....the GOP has no counterpart for that kind of deep rooted and bloodthirsty treachery.....maybe that will be their downfall in the end.

Why do you idiots think that lies and personal attacks are the way to win an election? Why don't you fools try running on Trump's record with the working people. Especially in New York, where 15,000 black and brown people died because of Trump's policies and failure to manage the global pandemic.

TRUMP IS AFRAID TO RUN ON HIS RECORD. LIES, PERSONAL ATTACKS AND CONSPIRACY THEORIES WON'T WIN THE ELECTION.

We can start by repealing Trumps trillion dollar gift to billionaires
Working Americans have been ignored for a generation and have seen wages and benefits sacrificed in the search for tax cuts for the wealthiest among us

What trillion dollar gift?

Let's say you and I were neighbors, and once a week when you went to church, I snuck into your home and took 50 dollars. So if after a while I started feeling guilty about it, and stopped taking that 50 dollars a week, does that mean I gave you a 50 dollar a week gift?

If we are going to start anywhere when it comes to money, let's stop funding Planned Parenthood, NPR, PBS for starts.
Let’s say you and I are neighbors.
Our fathers used to get a wage where they used to support a family on one salary. They could afford healthcare, to send their kids to school without going into debt, retire with a nice pension.

In the 1980s, we switched to supply side/trickle down with a promise of prosperity for all. It didn’t work. Instead of a rising tide lifting all boats, it only lifted the yachts

Funny....My working life started in the eighties and I retired at 46.
You must be doing something wrong.

By spending every dollar he earns. By earning enough money to get a home, and buy furniture, food, and take care of himself. 70% of the American economy is the American people going about their daily lives, eating, drinking, shopping, travel, and going to home town events. That part of the economy has fallen right off a cliff, and the workers who lost everything in 2008, and haven't really recovered, have nothing left to fall back on. If the government doesn't bail out the people this time instead of the corporations, your economy can't recover. People need to spend to make this recovery happen.

Giving the poor money is the best way to prime this pump because of their pent up demand and the fact that the poor spend every dollar they get, and spending is what is needed at the moment.

Actually, Trump is running on his record of astounding successes in the Field of Excellence. Libs predicted the Wuhan Kung Fluey would kill upwards of 2 million Americans. Not even close, due to the tremendous response of President Trump. If Hillary Clinton had won in 2016, unemployment would be easily twice what it is today even with millions dying in the streets from coronavirus- both the virus itself as well as starvation from the unemployment.

God forbid if we were neighbors.

Many of our fathers worked long hours and went without in order to save and to provide. There was no such thing as internet, cell phones, Starbucks, no one drove a BMW and if you even had a television there wasn't cable.

My father had a HS Diploma and got a union job at 18. On that salary he was able to raise four kids on a single salary, had good health benefits, a pension and retired at 60 with no debt. He sent four kids to college without going into hock.

Today’s kids have no shot at that American Dream. AOC wants to bring some of that back.
What? Your Dad from the greatest generation worked and paid to put food on the table, sent kids to school,
paid for healthcare for the family and retired with a pension. That is great and glad to hear it.
AOC wants to give it all for 'free', You are something else, RW
He sure did
And he received a fair wage with benefits
Something AOC supports

Republicans want to limit your ability to earn wealth. Restricting wages, labor rights, cutting benefits while the cost of healthcare and education keeps rising

Yeah...thats why she ran off Amazon.
