I am sorry but I cant comprehend AOC's emergence for you guys. You either get it or you don't. The parallels to Trump in 2015 are astounding. She is a rocket ship. If you dont think she is the face of the party of the most influential politician then I dont think you have been paying attention. I didnt post a meme. I posted screen grabs that showed how hypocritical Stelter is. Stelter is just one of many examples of the MSM hypocrisy with regards to how they treat criticism from politicians. It had nothing to do with CNN's ratings. Cheech brought up CNN's numbers. And when he did I made the point that their TV ratings dont tell the entire story. I have an Android and if I reset my phone which will reset the news app they use I will get notifications from CNN. If you dont believe me about their reach in the digital realm then here are some sauces. www.forbes.com/sites/markjoyella/2018/06/26/fox-news-long-lagging-behind-cnn-in-digital-closes-the-gap/#68e26bd2764fwww.adweek.com/tvnewser/cnn-is-the-no-1-source-for-digital-news/367655AOC has been in office a month. Never understood a person willfully using a Android. will·ful·ly Dictionary result for willfully /ˈwilfəlē/Submit adverb 1. with the intention of causing harm; deliberately. "she denies four charges of willfully neglecting a patient" 2. with a stubborn and determined intention to do as one wants, regardless of the consequences. "he had willfully ignored the evidence"

Yeah and that just makes it even more incredible. When she won her primary in June she had 17k Twitter followers. Now she has 2.8 million and almost 2 million on Instagram. Everything she does goes viral and it doesnt matter if she is right or wrong. She has created an alternate reality. I would love to turn out wrong about this but I saw similar things with Trump early on. And AOC is more potent because she is doing with the young people. I had iphones from 2007 till 2014. Enough for a lifetime. Sadly more people use social media than vote. Is she even old enough to run? No. And to her credit she has rebuked the people that have urged her to challenge the age restriction. I am happy more people use social media than vote. Social media pollutes minds.

Fewer people voting is a good thing because most people don't educate themselves on the issues or the candidates.

"she denies four charges of willfully neglecting a patient" 2. with a stubborn and determined intention to do as one wants, regardless of the consequences. "he had willfully ignored the evidence" Tool: (noun) 1.) A guy with a hugely over-inflated ego, who in an attempt to get un-due attention for himself, will act like a jackass, because, in his deluded state, he will think it's going to make him look cool, or make others want to be like him. The person may even insincerely apologize later on, but only in an attempt to get more attention, or to excuse his blatantly intentional, and unrepentantly tool-ish behavior. 2.) Someone whose ego FAR exceeds his talent, intelligence, and likeability. But, of course, he is clueless regarding that fact. He erroneously thinks he is THE MAN! 3.) Someone who others normally refer to as a prick, dick, or schmuck. 4.) Someone who acts like a dick, because...well...he's compensating. 5.) Kanye West Example: Observer #1: Hey, did you see Kanye West's idiotic stunt at the awards show? Observer #2: Oh, you mean, "Mr. It's-All-About Me?" Observer #1: Yeah...what an asshole. Observer #2: I know. He's such a tool!

Saw that..that was embarrassing. When I was younger I thought the Times was the "Grown up" paper smart people read. Imagine that. The New York fucking Post is more on the money than this rag lately. There are no more Statesmen in politics and no more real journalists running papers anymore. Very dangerous and sad.

So as long as only 10% of those women were actually sexually assaulted/raped, and the other 20% just sexually "abused", its ok then, right? Like voter fraud, sexual assault in small doses is NBD?

This is my biggest concern with the push for automatic registration. If you're not concerned or motivated enough to get registered on your own, and at least do some looking into the issues, do we really want you automatically registered and just pushing buttons on Election Day? Enough people vote already just because they heard one party is giving them free stuff. Do we really want more?
