In reply to the discussion: Nikki Haley gets roasted by AOC [View all]NurseJackie
(42,862 posts)105. The real strawman is making false claims like that.
Anything all of you are creating that she is doing that is going to hurt is a strawman.
The real strawman is making false claims like that. You know perfectly well that I said nothing of the sort, and what you're claiming is a big difference between simply "raising money for ActBlue" than compared to injecting one's self directly into Georgia politics. Look, all I'm trying to point out to you is that even Bernie Sanders knows that he would be of little help by popping-in to share his views with West Virginia voters. I think, at least I hope, that we can both agree that politicians from deep blue states and districts and regions can be ineffective (or even divisive) when campaigning for or speaking on behalf of others who seek public office in very very deep red states. Georgia's electoral votes went for Biden, but it's still a very red state and the GOP has a distinct advantage there. It serves no good purpose to try and change the subject or to pretend otherwise.Edit history

There is no attack. AOC may turn out to be the very finest congresswoman.
