Trumps Muslim ban and commentary about Muslims hating the US predate the AOC tweet. Good effort though. Try to change subject that in midst of a terroistic tragedy you found it necessary to attack a diverse congressman’s tweet that was neither offensive nor misapplied.

Got to be honest JH, you could pre-write and pre-post criticisms of tweets not yet written because it really does not take that much mental energy to forecast what’s coming. I mean you’re going to be what 80% correct?

Trump’s disposition on this really is not up for debate. This whole line of trump distrust and dislike of Muslims, and pretty much any other xenophobia, is sort of case law. Don’s got to a wolf down a few burgers from local Burger barn, and then he’ll commit another four or five atrocities before the sunsets.

When the sun goes down Giuliani comes out you know. So it’s sort of like a shift change.

What’s your issue? Should I say congresswomen? Some women find that terminology offensive.

A group can be diverse, a person can add diversity to a group, but a person isn't diverse.

Every person I suppose is diverse in that everyone is inherently unique. But I see your point.

Which was worse:

Trump holding a ceremonial veto meeting today where he was again passive about threat of white supremacy

Or

AOCs tweet

Both have now happened.

Exactly. The right cares about it because she is a real threat to their attack on the working class and poor. Focusing on the word choice of a tweet from some junior representative is just stupid.

This tweet seems a lot worse than AOC’s but sure let’s denigrate her. This board is crazy.


It is. And probably about ever third tweet @RealDon kicks out. These tweets routinely catch the board on fire. That's what make 'who cares' seem rather thin skinned. Everybody cares if it is Trump, Bannon, or most of the other moron squad (me as well) hit tweet.


Trump is the president of the US. AOC is a junior rep from Brooklyn. Bannon seems to have conspired with Cambridge analytica and others to undermine our democracy. AOC danced on a rooftop.

You see the difference, right?

To recap, the Jexodus tweet was less bad then then the tweet about police, military, and bikers.

The egging is the sort thing that would generally make me roll my eyes at people becoming their own worst enemy to their cause, but after seeing more about it I'm pretty close to "You go, Egg Boy"

A popular GoFundMe page has been opened to help him with legal fees and to buy "more eggs"
