AOC Fights For Her Voters - Oh Wait - I mean for Party Loyalty Bonus'

So uh, what's the problem exactly? No, I'm not talking about s0me0ne's problems.

Having a quick read through the article, I'm getting the impression that this scandal is the equivalent of a bureaucrat not binding their reports in the department regulation colour.
 
A feature of American conservative men is the fact that their self hate is strongly tied to gender. All so called feminine feelings natural to a human being to have, but according to the thypical cultural sickness inherent to Abrahamic patriarchal religion are thereby deemed improper for the inculcated in that culture to to have, become thereby, via family, peer, and social pressure, taboo and repressed in expression. This loss of feminine aspects of the self create an inner division and longing, tatamount to repressed envy and its correlative expression as hatred for objects of repressed lust.

This is an illness that can only be psychically maintained by fantasies of domination of the objects encountered in life that threaten to shut down access to those very objects of lust. Such a case would be a woman like the one the OP has become fixated on in this thread. She would not naturally be interested in him. She already has all of the self confidence of a man as a women but none of his insecurities of also being

She threatens the very reality of the justifications for his sickness. In this way he must hate her. She represents what he would have to become himself if he is to heal, a man in whom the hated but longed for feminine becomes alive. Only down that path, the love denied but longed for, he could once again then give himself.

This, I believe, is the source of conservative insanity surrounding women, the need to control the forbidden, the substitute for a personal awareness of ones inner divisions and mental illness.

You're kidding, right? lol

Who do you think a SALT tax deduction helps? It's RIDICULOUSLY regressive - especially with a $25k married standard deduction.

Good to see you're standing up for the rich lol

The SALT tax deduction is a handout to the rich. It should be eliminated not expanded | Brookings

Rather than seeking to remove the cap on the SALT deduction, policymakers would do better to consider steps towards the removal of the deduction itself.

So you'll support increasing the corp tax rate and establishing a minimum tax rate then?

Don't like SALT, raise the cap then. This wasn't the tax policy why Trump and Bezos were paying nothing in taxes. What a joke. Billionaires and business owners are the only ones with enough exempt deductions to get around the cap anyway.

Easy to hit with a two income suburban household with middle class jobs.
Middle class suckers don't have private jets, rental units, and golf courses to deduct. They now get a choice to fund schools or fucked on taxes.

Really is a tax on populated states to shift even more money to rural (mostly red) states so they don't have pull their own load.

I believe OP is concerned that moderate dems will see AOC donated to their candidates' campaign and will vote repub. 🙂
 
At best this seems more a politically short sighted attempt at goodwill. In reality, something like a small unexpected bonus is a really good way to provide positive reinforcement for someone's efforts during a time of strife. It's a shame it comes with potential political toxicity as raised by the OP. The actual dollar amount is trivial to a campaign. There is no scandal here. The intent is collegial, and that's a great thing.
 
A friendly reminder that the OP is the same person who thought Jen Psaki was the worst White House secretary of the modern era, that near-constant lying from Trump's secretaries was better than simply declining to provide definitive answers when you don't have them.

In other words... not the best judge of what warrants outrage.

I'll love when the SALT bullshit is repealed and the private jet and martini lunches are no longer tax deductible.

I'm trying to find where he stated that SALT was a good thing, or should be kept and/or expanded.

Are you fucking retarded, or what? Knee-jerking and screaming at mirrors; at imagined and perceived oppositional statements...ALL BECAUSE YOU CAN'T FUCKING READ.

Wait, don't answer that. Oh nevermind, you never respond directly anyway. 🙄
 
I think n0b0dy has gotten over his love of big ol frothy mugs of outrage.

Taking a cue from Kavanaugh maybe, he's now boofing his outrage directly to where he forms his opinions.

Sad. Probably not healthy either.

Re: OP....

The politico "article" has no reason to exist. "AOC did something, news at 11!" Next you're going to tell me she is transported by a... vehicle! OH NO, THE HYPOCRISY!!! Somebody call Hannity!!!

The OP is attempting to show us an issue that really matters inside the alt-reality bubble, though I struggle to fathom why he thinks the "issue" had meaning. I just don't see it. Am I supposed to hate AOC first, does it require frothing at the mouth? Do you need a rabies shot?
