(43,414 posts)to be Speaker, and that Pelosi will be there for them.
We just took over the House, should the kids have went and camped out at the soon to be powerless Rethug office? I am sure hundreds of Democratic protests have been directly in Republicans face when they were in power in the House.
I saw the first thread today on this with a disingenuous tweet posted that falsely framed the entire event, which led to a 'burn the witch' type rat pack, including calling AOC a Farrakhan associate via dodgy, guilt-by-association tactics that the RW has perfected, as well as calling for her to be primaried. Good luck with that last one.
I am new here but I see so many double standards in who is attacked and who isn't. Example:
When people have said Pelosi is a RW hate magnet and hurts the party (I do NOT agree at all) by being painted as a commie by Fox News, people (rightly so) say 'Fuck that, we will not let the Republicans define us. BUT, then, when it is the same exact thing done by shitty, lying Fox News, but its AOC under their cosh, the same people say OMG! she is hurting the party! It is a classic double standard.
