    I wouldn't read too much into that, it's just how it came up

    I was done at “fake Russian collusion”. Took him about 40 seconds to say “nothing to see here” about Trump/Russia.

    But anyway yeah AOC is the next Fidel Castro.

    I’d respect Conservatives a lot more if they’d just admit they elected a mistake and they’ve jeopardized the country. Then we can just get rid of the problem and move on in a safer conservative or liberal direction.

    Well it does seem to me to be “nothing to see here” about Trump/Russia, as far as I can tell.

    If you're a "never-Trumper"...well, it's your right to be so.

    To me, the most telling and horrific thing about AOC, that can be seen in the video, is her astounding arrogance. I don't think even Trump comes off as that arrogant.

    The parts about her origin and her backers were interesting too, IMO.

    This is where the Trump crowd loses me, or doesn’t have me, or I just don’t understand.

    Neither of these two make any sense. What guy are you watching and listening to? I’m at a point where I don’t even want to try and understand this type of logic, it’s absolutely absurd. If you don’t believe there’s a connection between Trump/Russia then there will never be anything to convince you. There could be literal phone calls between Putin/Trump saying “hey we’re gonna totally hijack this Presidency!” And you’d probably still think it was doctored or taken out of context.

    You think AOC is more arrogant than Donald ****ing Trump.

    Unreal.

    I really don't want to get bogged down into this, but perhaps you could show me some Trump/Russia link, other than that Trump was maybe going to build a hotel in Moscow.

    It is easy to tell the ones who get all their news from the echo chamber. They are actually convinced Trump colluded with Russia. I am curious how the echo chamber will spin it when the truth comes out since they have all these people so convinced about it. They will just likely keep saying just look at all the convictions that came from the investigation without ever pointing out NONE of the convictions have ANYTHING to do with Trump/Russia collusion.

    One thing I appreciate about AOC is that she always dresses conservatively. She's beautiful and she dresses very stylishly and well, but she doesn't let herself be photographed in anything revealing. You know for a woman in her position, if her opponents could circulate a photo of her in a scoop neck blouse or a short skirt, we'd see it more than the dancing video. It'd be a great way to sexually objectify her to belittle her as a policymaker. But, the most revealing thing I've seen her in is a sleeveless dress. She has been very intentional about managing her image in this regard.

    I think the point is that when we want to spend a bunch more money to, say, expand the military no one cries poverty and says we can't afford to do it.
