The fake tough pukes can't stand real courage.

So they seek to suppress these voices, and not just at the voting places.

The Green Wave is what gives me hope for the future.

The GOP is willing to endanger the future so that the oil companies can extract every drop of oil from the ground.


No green wave, no real future.

I just love all the young women of color voted in by DEMOCRATS!!! They will change the world.

if this country is to move forward ....

And suppress the votes.

Lets hope people who traditionally don't care...start to...
The un-involved...The ones who say "It doesn't matter who I vote for...it won't make a difference"

Hopefully they will see how wrong they are..and that they do make a difference!!!..

In local elections as well, there a 30% turnout is considered good.

with someone Republicans don't hate so much" claims?

Great!

What took you so long?

Things like Medicare for all, higher taxes on the wealthiest, and a better minimum wage all have strong (usually majority) support in polls. But powerful people of all stripes do whatever they can to prevent such things.

And the GOP has always opposed everything that you listed.

They are the unofficial Party of white supremacy.

The knife in

Agreed.

But this obsession is a weak attempt by the GOP to divert from the fact that their President is a criminal and a fool.

They’ve seen Occupy Wall Street attract young people.

They’ve watched Grumpy Old Bernie attract young people.

This has to be scaring the hell out of them.

Especially the young vote, and the non-white vote.

I want her to speak at the NYC Women's March (or any Resistance march there. I just want to hear her speak). And I'd line up to give her a pussyhat of choice.

And she is not silent in the face of GOP racism and misogyny.

In my view, she is the future and the hope. As are my children and all of the millennial generation.

has the same complexion that many Italians and Greeks have and no one calls them "brown."

I am French. And I have heard more than one person say that people from Mediterranean countries are not white.

In my opinion, the terms white and brown are political terms.

At one time, Arabs who were Muslims were considered non-white, while Arab Christians were considered white.

They used him to DEFEAT progressivism in prior election, and they're repeating the tactic now with him and whatever left-wing dissenters they find useful.

You DO realize these Fox and other right-wing attacks on a 29-year-old with no achievements yet are building her up as a national figure? You really should understand why and that they are no more afraid of her than they were of Sanders.

Thus the GOP need for voter suppression and obstruction.

She is merely the visible face of the problem.

as a national figure. A 29-year-old with no significant achievements, who won a congressional seat with 5% (FIVE PERCENT!) of that district's constituents voting. (Most thought their powerhouse would of course win again as always and didn't bother to vote.)

As for why what Fox and Russia are doing with Ocasio matters, remember, with many structural problems weighing against us, including the electoral college and gerrymandering, the Republicans won/we lost the presidency in 2016 by a very narrow margin and in 2018 we only took the house by very narrow margins. A bunch of them.

They absolutely will try to use splinter groups and third-party candidates to repeat 2016 and consolidate control of government, national and state, in 2020.

who is described as the next great thing in much the same way.

But that’s not a problem. That is a feature!

Some cling to a dysfunctional healthcare system and attack single payer solutions.

I am glad that you liked it.
