My posts and your responses are right here for all to see.

When Rashida Tlaib told her constituents in Michigan - a must win state for Harris - NOT to vote for Harris, that was an outrage. It definitely helped Trump win the election.

Tlaib actively promoted the defeat of the Democratic candidate for president and the election of a convicted felon and sex abuser.

It happened. Don't pretend it didn't. Don't pretend that it's a new idea all of a sudden in NYC politics.

I will say again. People can only be pushed so far when confronted with blatant hypocrisy.
