In reply to the discussion: The Green New Deal and Dianne Feinstein [View all]Horizens
(637 posts)The article is based on a doctored 13 - minute video released by the Sunshine Movement, a group led by and composed of AOC former campaign staffers. The encounter, in fact, was 20 minutes long and, seen in its entirety, sheds a totally different light on Feinstein and the engagement. The edited video is worthy of a James Okeefe Production.
The piece shamelessly manipulates and uses children as props in a hit piece targeting a Senator who has a long and sterling record on environmental issues.
Feinstein did not, as the doctored video implies, walk out yelling at the kids. She departed amicably after encouraging the kids to run for office, offering one of them an internship and mentioning her own recently released climate change resolution far more detailed than AOCs nothing burger Green Deal a proposal that is as substantive as a beauty contestants desire for world peace.
AOC (and every group she has spawned/supports) is an albatross for democrats entering the 2020 election cycle.
