AOC rips both Huckabees. Gloves are off people.

[Hayabusa Rider]

First thing- AOC is the first politician who shows leadership proportional to the needed response on climate and hopefully not the last. I respect that.

But to Huckabees-

ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ TAKES DOWN MIKE HUCKABEE: LEAVE LYING TO YOUR DAUGHTER, 'SHE’S MUCH BETTER AT IT'


Initially, I thought that she should separate the man from daughter but dad has been doing this, the Republicans in office and their supporters have by proxy everytime Trump attacks. They let him do the work and they benefit from his actions. Perhaps playing at being polite is no longer a viable approach.

Politeness was discarded long ago. About time Dems got the memo.

I'm thinking we should bring back swords like the good old days of Parliament. I'm not entirely joking.

 

[Triloby]

At least someone's getting the memo (aka: stop being polite to people who act in bad faith towards you). If only the rest of the Democrats would follow suit.

Plus, I like this quote even better: “Also, you haven’t been a Governor of any state for 10+ years now.”

"Just pay for it."

Correct. Cut a couple hundred billion, maybe only a hundred billion a year from defense and move it to R&D and deployment coupled with getting rid of the dumb tax plan and allowing deductions for businesses moving towards the end goal.

I "just paid for it", and it is far cheaper than not doing so.

 

[Fanatical Meat]

I like how she immediately and effectively fires back, we need far more Democrats to do this. No more sitting on your hands to keep decorum, no more super smart debate style comebacks that nobody will ever understand. Keep the message simple and direct.

Shens, we should just borrow the money. That how the party of fiscal responsibility would do it.

As long as trumps name was on it, slowspyder would jubilantly support it.

Why do you keep asking this? Mexico is going to pay.

Oh oh oh, that time you weren't supposed to take him at his word. Merely a metaphor!

 

[Jaskalas]

Hrrm, I'll have to give this round to AOC (Cortez for short?)

Their "moon landing" attack on her is pathetic. She wants action on Global Warming. There is nothing inherently wrong with that, even if we should approach sweeping changes with caution. We need people motivated like she is, or nothing gets done.

As professed God fearing Christian's, the Huckabee's should be motivated stwards of God's world.

Ha! look at the comments in the link above.

Good news! It appears Trump believes in cutting military spending too!

I am certain that, at some time in the future, President Xi and I, together with President Putin of Russia, will start talking about a meaningful halt to what has become a major and uncontrollable Arms Race. The U.S. spent 716 Billion Dollars this year. Crazy!

She's really what gov't needs. Entirely fresh blood.

I'm sorry this is America where, for many evangelicals, christianity is less a belief structure than a tribe.

 

[K1052]

As to AOC and climate change guess what...she represents like 3/4ths of the country under 40.

Republicans have no plans for anything that growing blocs of the electorate want.

 

[MomentsofSanity]

Gee. Seems like just months ago he was bragging about the bloated military budget. When was that again? *checks notes*. Oh yeah. Months ago.

Something big just be coming down the pipe. He’s particularly unhinged today

 

[woolfe9998]

Good for her. Huckabee was being a douche. She didn't compare her election to the moon landing. She compared the entire blue wave of dems and especially women being elected in November.

We went to the moon. We electrified the nation. We established civil rights. We enfranchised the country. We dig deep, and we did it. We did it when no one else thought that we could. That's what we did when so many of us won an election this year.

I guess being a lying douchbag is genetic.

Yes because we all know Jesus would have hate tweeted the money lenders.

All I can say is if a Christian god actually exists there are a lot of unpleasantly surprised people in hell similar to the Huckabees.

Just a little light witness tampering. I mean come on that's hardly a crime because a rich old white dude is doing it.

I really hope there is a God, just for this reason. I will happily sit in hell next to these types of people and laugh my ass off at them (while being consumed in fire and fury)

Absolutely. Christians ought to be thankful that they were given a gift and purpose, in this case, our planet. Old and New Testaments universally recognize the concept of stewardship but not so many who call themselves Christians embrace Christ's meaning and intent. They've constructed a golden representation, not a calf but some doppelganger and engage in acts of idolatry, worshipping an antichrist.
