In reply to the discussion: Seriously need to knock off the AOC hate here [View all]Hortensis

We couldnt guess just how much hard work by so many and how much cooperation and compromise goes into progress, and how much time, but at least normal people have the capacity to respect that its about all of us and what we all want.

Turners shit they have to eat, always blamed on some evil group, but its really the majorities with their own ideas they rage at.

In what way is AOC a backstabber? That's a vicious attack against an elected Democratic House Member
