"...Mr. President, don't take your anger out on me - I'm just a silly girl..."

[Miles Archer]

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

@AOC
Mr. President, don’t take your anger out on me - I’m just a silly girl.

Take it out on whoever convinced you to betray the American people and our Constitution by illegally bombing Iran and dragging us into war.

It only took you 5 months to break almost every promise you made.

1. Thank you, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez, for standing up for the Constitution

[Scubamatt]

2. Thank you, AOC

for so eloquently speaking truth to power! Keep at it!

[malaise]

3. He's insane on steroids

That is all

[chowder66]

4. That has to be a record for projection in one tweet. Maybe it should be called Trump-jection from now on.

[Delmette2.0]

26. I agree.

47 wouldn't know about autopen unless
he has used one.

[chowder66]

28. He admitted he used it.

[Brother Buzz]

31. Like putine, he keeps his thumbs on the buttons (shitter send button)

[Kali]

6. OMFG

[ananda]

7. Boy she's good!

Love

[Hugin]

8. Oh, my...

Anybody want dressing with that word salad?

[mac56]

9. Every Trump accusation is a confession

[gfarber]

10. AOC

A young Congresswoman named AOC,
Said, “Sir, don’t get angry with me.
It’s your war, not my plan—
You bombed sovereign land,
And broke every vow publicly.”

[rampartd]

12. welcome aboard, gfarber

thanks for the limerick

[littlemissmartypants]

15. Your ditties are interesting.

Do you write them yourself or are you using AI? I'm just curious.

Welcome to DU, gfarber.



❤️

[calimary]

24. Love this!

In rhythm and everything!

[rurallib]

11. based on Trump's hiring record he must think the top starts at 0

and that he is really close to the top.

(turn the table upside down to find the real geniuses like him)

[SoFlaBro]

13. Orange Bastard has shit the entire bed with his piss-soaked rhetoric and motherfucking ham-fisted diplomacy.

[LudwigPastorius]

14. "The Mouse"?

What the actual fuck?

[littlemissmartypants]

16. Always remember...

Anger is fear in translation.

[Justice matters.]

17. Convicted felon doesn't know the ratings of other countries but...

he posts: "is rated one of the WORST in the world"

immediately followed with his confession he doesn't know if it's rated: "if it's even rated at all"


how old is he? 14?

Apologies to all intelligent 14-year-olds who don't behave like him (and the likes of him).

[yonder]

19. That sure stuck out didn't it?

[BaronChocula]

21. Not to mention

Omar is a U.S. rep.
Donnie Epstein Files is inadvertently trashing his own leadership.

[Autumn]

23. Experts say that he speaks at a 4th grade level.

[Pachamama]

53. Which may also explain his appeal to many of his supporters

Who think and operate at that level….

Meanwhile the projection in that excrement he typed out shows what really going on in his jumbled head and his worst fears about himself…

[Paladin]

18. Outstanding response, AOC. (nt)

[DENVERPOPS]

20. What is needed

is EVERY Dem to start blitzing the Republicans every chance they get, not just AOC and Bernie, and a few others.
With the Republican Oligarchs owning and/or operating almost every single Media in the U.S. it is an uphill battle to be heard, but the Dems in the House and Senate should launch a tsunami of truth and reality every day, every chance they get......

[yonder]

22. "When we examine her test scores . . ."

Yeah, let's just do that, Donnie Fortnight.

We'll start with your own or will you be too busy folding Tacos?

[Katinfl]

25. He is insane.

Just read the last couple of posts. Would anyone in their right mind be posting this shit? When is the media going to wake up to this? How can anyone take this seriously? If anyone other than him was posting this nonsense, they would be committed. The 25th amendment was written for these times, but nothing will be done. We are all fucked.

[Orrex]

27. Why doesn't he just fucking die already?

[Ping Tung]

29. "As the doctor said" ? Would that be the same doctor Thai found and verified his invisible bone spur?

[live love laugh]

30. I regret wasting my time reading that.

[H2O Man]

33. I only read

AOC's response. Then replied, and then saw this! Thank you! I now know better than to read the felon's splattering.

[H2O Man]

32. Recommended.

AOC is the Best!!!!!!

[Buddyzbuddy]

34. Have you noticed, the harder he attacks somebody

is directly related to how weak he feels. Like an injured animal lashing out.

[cab67]

35. Every American should be ashamed by what Trump wrote.

They won't be (alas!), but this is one of the most childish tantrums I've ever seen come from an adult. That this particular adult represents the USA on the world stage leaves me disgusted and humiliated.

I'm traveling overseas next month, and I'm genuinely worried that I'll be less safe because a bunch of people made a huge mistake - one I didn't make - this past November.

[appleannie1]

36. It sure does not take much to get under his thin skin.

[evilhime]

37. I would like to

See that report, and talk to that doctor… maybe have him take a psych evaluation at an independent 3rd party facility like Penn med or University of Maryland . . . I do not believe one word he says about his supposd physical.

[Klarkashton]

38. Certainly written by Chung.

The meanest of the mean girls.

[niyad]

40. why would you call stephen cheung "a mean girl"? I do not understand

your post.

[liberalla]

39. Beautiful! Just perfect!

AOC is one of a kind --- the very best kind!
Thank you!

[Blue Owl]

41. This is exactly the tone democrats need to deal with this maladministration

[jmowreader]

42. All of the victories? Name three.

[Miles Archer]

45. If you count the victory laps he's taken in the last 155 days for IMAGINARY VICTORIES that did not happen...

that's a LOT of victories. I imagine he'll be out there crowing about gas prices and egg prices and keeping trans athletes out of the boys' locker room.

[Seinan Sensei]

43. TSF thinks he's a badass Monster Truck

In actuality he’s a lil’ ole Mario Kart

(Keep it up AOC … you da’ best!)

[orangecrush]

[yellowdogintexas]

51. This appears to be essentially a maneuver. They brought it up, discussed it

then voted to table it for further discussion at a later date. This is not the same as voting to not impeach at all, just to not move forward at this time.

Besides, Al Green will file another one in a couple of weeks. He has said he will continue to do so what with a new set of impeachable offenses every day

[orangecrush]

59. Thank you

[Marthe48]

46. we aren't winning anything at all

We get degraded more every day.

I really admire Rep. Ocasio-Cortez for her courage telling the truth.

[FakeNoose]

47. Come on folks! We all know Chump didn't write this response

I don't know - maybe it was written by Stephen Miller, or another staffer. But we know it wasn't Chump because it's grammatically correct with no misspelled words. There are even a few 3- and 4-syllable words in there.

[spanone]

48. He is one crazy motherfucker.

[Ladythatvotesblue]

49. AOC

Smart, spunky and totally right.

[soldierant]

50. AOC is only silly

in the Anglo-Saxon sense, which meant something closer to what its German descendant "selig" means.

(She's also a woman, not a girl but whatever.)

[JDAcme]

52. I close my eyes

and see this moron in a straight jacket wearing his absurd red hat.

[rickyhall]

54. Just a little girl from the Bronx. Awesome.

[Ping Tung]

55. Abe Lincoln only served one term in Congress before running for president. Hint. Hint. Are you listening AOC?

[Pototan]

56. I was a Business Agent for a large union

and I would always end my grievances with something like that line.

"Thank you for your kind attention to this matter."

It was a way of seeming less confrontational in a matter that was by its design, was a confrontation of sorts.

Anyway, that's why I used that phrase. I have no idea why Adolf Trump uses it.

[Miles Archer]

57. It's that "Thank you in advance for your cooperation" thing

When I worked in the corporate world, and would get one of those emails that ended with "THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR COOPERATION," I saw RED. I hated that nonsense, that passive aggressive sort of "Because if you DON'T COOPERATE" inference.

It's also that "THE GREAT AND POWERFUL OZ HAS SPOKEN" thing, a "mic drop," what Trump sees as a dramatic finish to his display of raw power, rather than looking and sounding like a complete dork.

[Pototan]

58. oh, I never would use that line

:Thank you for your kind attention to this matter." Was a way of demonstrating that we're both just doing our jobs, union and management.

Too often, the managers would take a grievance personally and that would make it more difficult to settle. And by not settling, the grievance took longer and would become more expensive for both sides.

The way a contract works, is that I need to convince the other side I'm correct. If I couldn't, we would need to go to arbitration and then I need a lawyer. In order to do my job, I needed to make sure the employee (union member) was satisfied with thee outcome and achieve that without arbitration. Very few instances were black and white, where the member was right and the manager wrong, or vice-versa. That grey area was within the settlement and I needed the other side to keep an open mind.

[twodogsbarking]

60. Trump is afraid of girls, except for underage ones.

Crass but, well, true.
